Out to NYC – NFL Draft Week

Posted: April 20th, 2010 | Author: Thomas McGovern | Filed under: Shoot | Tags: , , , , , | 1 Comment »

For the rest of the week I am in NYC covering NFL draft events, this is a video/photo shoot concentrating on a single player(i’ll reveal that tonight). Right now i’m on MTA, then a quick run to b&h for a zoom H4n for better audio coverage.  I have a 11am event and only adorama carries the redhead windscreen and headphones I want so those will wait until the afternoon.  

You have to treat shoots like these as news coverage, we’re hitting 20 some events including prime time draft in 3 days so my shooting bag has only the essentials in it, I have a larger bag with backups that will sit in the car and with an assistant thursday for just in case.  

In my bag:
Canon 5D2
50 1.8
16-35 2.8
24-85 3.5-4.5
580ex2
Batteries & cards & cables
Zoom H4n

All in a lowepro topload zoom 75. Yikes. 
3 pages of scheduling and attire.
