This was a music video for Sony/Columbia. The MILO motion control camera was used for the entire shoot. The MILO allows exact repeat motions of the same shot over and over. This allows you to vary the elements within the scene and have them dissolve, wipe, pop in and out, without the background being affected. The MILO is also used to do seamless motion composite work.
A three day production with the Harrisburg Fire Dept. Kodak was still in the testing phase of the Vision series and asked me to test a few rolls. I rated the stock at 500 ASA and was quite pleased with the results. Kodak later introduced the stock with a rating of 320.

"Skirts" was a feature film shot in only six 12-hr days. Two camera units, a great lighting crew, and lots of prep lead to a quick successful shoot.
