Zacuto FilmFellas Cast 8 - Behind The Scenes

ZacutoZacuto, makers of FilmFellas, is one of the best companies I've ever interacted with. The employees are happy, everyone is friendly and I even found out some inside information... employee benefits are amazing at Zacuto. So naturally only the best type of people work there and give the best service. Vu and I travel a lot for business. Companies fly us around the world to teach, work and play... this trip to Chicago was amazing. Every little detail was planned out by the great Zacuto staff, from having a driver pick us up from the airport to having us pre checked in to the hotel... everything was smooth and I felt taken care of. That is really what made an impact... Zacuto actually genuinely cares about people.FilmFellas Cast 8 The cast of FilmFellas season 8: ACS Cinematographers:Rodney Charters ASC, CSC, (Television Series: 24)Nancy Schreiber ASC (The Nines)Stephen Goldblatt ASC, BSC, (Julie & Julia, Lethal Weapon)Jens Bogehegn (DP/Producer of FilmFellas/critics) FilmFellas is directed by Steve Weiss. Vu and I had never had the chance to meet Nancy Schreiber or Stephen Goldblatt before arriving in Chicago for FIlmFellas season 8. Since my flight was delayed Nancy and I were picked up by the same driver and we talked the entire way to the hotel. It was really cool to get to know such a fantastic person like Nancy. She is so smart. After the boat ride, which I'll talk about in a bit, Steven, Rodney, Nancy, Vu and I went to a bar and talked for a couple hours. It was such a great chance to get to know Steven and was very inspiring. Steven has worked on so many great films... hearing him tell stories about his career was awesome. He also shared some never before seen photos he took way back in the day of some of the most iconic musicians... I was again inspired. Rodney has become a friend over the last year and I love to hang out with him. I've learned so much from Rodney... it seems like if you spend 5 minutes with him you learn something new. Jens and Steve are the kind of guys I want to be like when our company gets bigger. Awesome people that really care about what they do and care even more about the people around them.Z-Boat One of the special parts of attending FilmFellas 8 filming was getting to go to the party the day before. Yes, it was on a boat!!! We took a river and lake cruise and got to see one of the bes sunsets I've ever seen. I don't know how Zacuto planned it... but they ordered up the perfect sunset. While on the boat I figured I'd make a time lapse of the cruise. So here it is, FilmFellas Cast 8 Chicago Lake Michigan Time-Lapse Video. That cruise was so cool, we got to go in the rivers under the bridges... which are very low... and have a great meal. It was so cool to see the city that way, especially since it was my first time there.
