Canon USA: The Shot
 

DOCUMENTARY

 

 

Michael Ori captures the adventures of Canon Australia’s Krystle Wright in Oregon. Krystle Wright is a world renowned adventure photographer specialized in capturing nature and the athletes that relish in it. She dreamt up an idea of shooting kayakers in a new way, launching over waterfalls at night, illuminated by Canon 600EX Speedlights mounted to a drone. In order to accurately document the intensity of the shoot and Wright’s creative passion, Ori Media equipped themselves with a string of Canon cameras, including the freshly released Canon EOS 1D X Mk II. In addition to the 1D X, Ori Media utilized the new Ice Light 2 from Westcott Lighting, the Rhino Evo with motion control, and DJI Ronin.

Krystle and Michael met up with the sports best Kayakers in Hood River Oregon to begin their 3 day journey. Day 1 began with an early morning trip to Celestial Falls where Krystle’s vision started to become a reality. As night fell, the two Canon experts captured each moment with passion for their craft. Krystle capturing the fearless kayakers and Michael filming the immense effort tenacious Krystle and her team put into each click of the shutter. The kayakers glided over the waterfalls while the speedlight bearing drone hovered only feet above to illuminate them at precisely the right moment.

The Oregon woods were dark and damp, but the content captured in 3 short days shines a light on the talent and dedication these two experts exude. The result is a beautiful mini documentary produced for Canon USA and Canon Australia about the journey of Krystle and her crew of ambitious adrenaline junkies in pursuit of the perfect image.

 BRAND CAMPAIGN

 

 

Salt Lake City based motorcycle-lifestyle company, Johnny Bones, approached Ori Media about creating a full campaign for the launch of their new clothing line. The small business had a minimal budget and little time before their clothing was scheduled to launch.

To meet this challenge we used the Canon EOS 1DX Mark II for the project. The internal still frame grabs during playback were very important to Johnny Bones as they have a huge social media following which loves to be up to date with what they are doing in the moment.
