5D mkII Test footage for Desert MX short

Desert Bike Teaser from Jerry Balloch on Vimeo.

I'm about to start working on a short film of Desert MX here in Dubai. I've decided to shoot on the Canon 550D so I have the ability to shoot at 60fps for slo-mo. I shot the test above on a 5D mkII. This is my first go at shooting moving image rather than stills so it'll be a steep learning curve but I'm looking forward to seeing how it all turns out.

Dirt Action Magazine Article

Ben from Dirt Action sent me through a PDF of the article I shot so here it is below.

Dirt Action Magazine

I've got an article in this month's Dirt Action Magazine in Australia. I haven't actually seen a copy of it yet so don't know what it's like, just know it's there. Anyone in Oz please send my a pic.

More Desert KTM shots

I couldn't resist putting up a couple more shots from this morning.

KTM in the Desert

I was out early this morning in the desert to do some shots with a friend of mine of his new KTM. What a bike, super sweet. Managed to get a few nice pics before the sun got too unbearable, the benefits of getting up before sunrise.
