And wouldn't you know it we're shooting with it right away. Stills and videos will be forthcoming as soon as possible but we're thrilled to be putting the L-Series Canon Lenses that we acquired for shooting with the Canon 5D MII to use on an actual production ready video camera.
The images we will be able to make with this light weight small form factor camera will blow you away and its the perfect camera for hand-held and ENG work as well as beautiful talking heads and landscapes.
What's all the hype about???? Until we get back from our first trip with it, we'll let Philip Bloom tell you allllllll about it.

Shoulder High Productions was recently asked to commemorate the history of the Hoover Pavilion on Stanford University Medical Campus, a building built in the early 1930's and formerly known as the Palo Alto Hospital. As it turns out we knew just the guy to ask about this building. Shoulder High Productions' owner Christopher Baldwin's father, Dr. Davis Baldwin. Dr. Baldwin had been the first Chief OB/GYN Resident and had a very full career serving the Palo Alto and Stanford Community with his business partner and wife Patricia Baldwin, NP. It was an honor to be able to sit down with him and some of the patients who were cared for at the hospital. They shared some memories of what the hospital and care was like back then.
This short video was the first in a series of videos that we have created to document and honor the current Stanford Medical Campus as it starts a near decade long rebuilding process to modernize the facilities and care for the community.

Vertigo Software, Inc. , a client of Shoulder High Production's, LLC . was called upon to build NBC's online video player for the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.
"Designed and built in partnership with NBC Universal and Microsoft, this unique web experience will showcase live streaming and on-demand HD video and immersive photo galleries for a wide variety of competitions, athlete interviews and Opening and Closing ceremonies during the network’s February 12-28 coverage.
HD-quality Video
Thousands of hours of live HD content, streaming at full 720p. Microsoft IIS Smooth Streaming technology enables the player to automatically adjust video quality to match each user’s bandwidth."
Using Microsoft's Silverlight Player, which you can downloand and install for either PCs or Macs here , and a host of other cutting edge web tools, Vertigo created the perfect online experience of the Olympics. We have watched their design and perfection of many of these integrated web strategies and the work they did for NBC is truly "gold medal" deserving!
Of particular interest to Shoulder High Productions, LLC. is the HD player they built which ramps up the quality of the stream from low enough for a smooth fast start to a full 720 High Definition video experience. It is almost as much fun to watch the video quality improve for the first few seconds of play, as it is to watch the Olympians do their stuff! But we're video people over here so you're allowed to just watch and enjoy the competitions.
We're extremely happy to be helping Vertigo with their media communication needs and look forward to bringing you more of their great work.

This week Shoulder High Productions, LLC. was brought in to SVB Financial Group to help design a new lighting plot for their corporate headquarters's Kellogg Auditorium. The auditorium is used for countless meetings and trainings by the employees of the bank but it has increasingly become a place that partners like the Commonwealth Club have come to hold their gatherings. Since an increasingly larger number of these events were being filmed and posted to the web, we were called in with the help of Glo Lighting to propose a new lighting arrangement they could use specifically for when they film events in this space. The needs and demands of lighting a space for video are very different than for daily use and we're happy to help our clients create the best solutions for their reoccurring video needs. We're happy to say that they are choosing between Compact Florescent and LED lights so Sustainability Media is also happy with the Green choices!

Shoulder High Productions, LLC. was called on by our clients in Portland, CMD, to shoot a video highlighting Intel's new Netbook designed specifically for kids.
There's a saying in the industry... "Never work with kids or animals! (or really crowded, noisey, open to the public museums...:)" It is a very silly saying as you can see the kids did GREAT and CMD did a wonderful job editing the piece together.

In December of 2009, SVB Financial Group hosted a panel discussion titled "How Venture Capital Works." The panelists discussed the relationships, decisions, and economics that drive venture capital. The panel included participants representing the three key roles in VC industry dynamics. Shoulder High Productions, LLC. was asked to help produce the event for a near immediate online distribution.
We organized a 3 camera, live switched program for Silicon Valley Bank Financial Group. The middle camera was on a dolly and added a great boost to the production value. This was shot on location in the client's headquarters so we brought in everything we would need to convert their corporate auditorium to a elegant studio for this extremely insightful and behind the scenes discussion of the inner workings of the modern day venture model. We were excited to have had the opportunity to serve this longstanding client and help them communicate to a larger audience the state of the Venture Capital Model and SVB Financial Group's role in it.
