Saul Morales (He/Him)

For this show our team was in charge of building the process of how we pulled the selects from the cinema cameras in the field and got them color corrected and transcoded for the recap editors. We made the raw footage manageable for our recap editors to successfully crank out every deliverable on every show date.

Set up, operation, and tear down of a two camera livestream. We used Canon C70s patched into a black magic atem for switching, sending straight to vimeo for hosting.

A week of shooting interviews and b roll between large technology heads at the CES Tech Expo. My Responsibilities: Three C70s and their support gear(gimbal,Magliner,lenses,tripods). As well as attaching lavs to talent and helping set our lighting(astras,xlr lavs right into camera).

Served as the gimbal operator for following hosts on stage as well as awards winners from the stands to the stage to claim their awards. Flew camera on DJI Ronin 3 Pro.

Mainly supported the camera operators and swing during set ups and breakdowns.

Responsible for following story boards and editing a 15 second promo for Amazon image stack of a product line.

Helped create string outs of highlights footage for the daily recap editors. We had about 15 cam ops on-site that were shooting on REDS, A7siii's, FX6s, GoPro FPV, Inspire Drone, Jibs. I helped stabilize FPV footage as well with Reel Steady. Overall I was a support system to help the daily recap editors find the best footage quickly.

Capture of live event b-roll for social media sizzle reels.

On-site DIT responsible for funneling media from the photo and video team through shot put pro and onto company raid arrays. Archiving the company’s assets as they were created. I also worked alongside the lead editor to create string outs/directories for quick turn around social edits every hour.

I was hired to produce a short documentary styled piece revolving around employee testimonies and their experience with a store location that was being relocated in 2022. The filming was done over two separate days that had scheduled b roll and three interviews per day in about four hour sessions. The edit was done in about three days including revisions. This was one of my favorite projects in recent months since I love interviewing people.

I was hired to capture the "big move". The scope of the project was to film the staff of the record store relocating. This meant they were moving shelves, hanging banners, and organizing products. The purpose of this video was to show a behind the scenes look at the process the company was undergoing to it's clientele on all of the social media platforms. To achieve the clients goals, both creatively and budgetarily we worked together to build a shoot schedule that lapsed a week. We has a camera capturing a time-lapse everyday all day for 5 days. On top of the time-lapse we set aside two half days for capturing b roll of the staff actively setting up their new store.

This was the last video we made for Zia Records in this big moment for the company where it relocated the founding Las Vegas location on Eastern and Flamingo and moved down to Eastern and Warm Springs. To welcome their new stores, Zia wanted a video that served two main functions: as a virtual tour for their clientele and as a big welcome for the new store online. Thus came about this video! It was filmed in about 5 hours and we had it turned around in about 4 days with revisions. The client loved the video and I had lots of fun working on it with them.

I created a video for a company that specializes in home renovation. The goals of the client were create a video they could use at sales sessions with their customer 1 on 1s as a tool to illustrate past work.

I was an onsite editor/assistant editor who worked 3 days at EDC. There were four of us who showed up and made a 30 second video every night. Along with this was pulling all the "beauty" or "magic" shots from our assigned festival stages. Each stage had approximately 3-5 cameras shooting in in the RED Raw codecs. We were transcoding and editing from the NAS that was built for the festival's media team.

I was contracted by Zia Records to produce a sizzle reel/promotional reel for their social media accounts. This was a general ad that showcased their store and the types of products they sell. The shooting was done in about 4-6 hours. The edit was turned around in about two days with revisions. This was lots of fun and the client loved the video.

I was hired to capture the store's live event they hosted in August for Record Store Day. The company had a slew of exclusive titles that were special releases that day. The nature of the shoot was documentary in nature with lots of b roll and on the fly interviews. We filmed the line of customers they had prior to opening their doors where we conducted several on the fly interviews with willing patrons. Afterwards we filmed the inside of the store where the customers collected their exclusives. It was important to the client that we integrate the staff interacting and connecting with the patrons and so we captured a lot of those interactions as well. Overall it took about 5 hours to film the event and had the video turned around in 3 days including revisions.
