Water! Water! Water!
If it twists, turns, splashes or drenches, we've been there, done that.
Thrill rides. Wet rides. Vertical falls, centrifugal force. It's hot. It's wet! But we'll get the shot. Mark Underkofler, the Director/DP
can turn water into crisp droplets by changing frame rates, shooting high speed and sticking cameras where no camera has gone before.
I always marvel at the acquisition devices and how they've changed through the years. Imagine doing this image capturing with big 35mm cameras and film....yeah that's what we used to do.

We've shot in nearly every wet park there is.
It's always interesting to see behind-the-scenes of commercial production. Grips are usually standing off aiming shiny boards at the talent and the action. Sometimes there are 10 foot frames with diffusion materials "flown" to soften the sun's harsh rays.
Sometimes you've got to get wet. Here, Wild Horses of Dallas Director Mark Underkofler jumps in and chases the talent with a camera.
Many great parks have roller coasters, thrill rides and, you guessed it......WATER. Shots are made from lifts, cranes, jimmyjibs--- any way to "hang" over the vertical falls.
