Shooters Q&A

Films I wish I had made

The Dark Knight
I cried watching

Batman & Robin
I left the cinema during

Matrix Revolutions (due to what looked like a drunk projectionist!)
Directors I love

Hitch, Kubrick, Ridley Scott, Chris Nolan, etc.

The best thing I own

The Steadicam & P2HD camera - just excellet quality in HD or SD, variable frame rates & brilliant low light performance, my set of now indispensible LED battery lights, and my lovely Sachtler tripod.
