Bartlett Television Productions Shoots New York State For Tourism DVD

Spring / Summer, 2004 - Rochester based cameraman Dave Bartlett packed his bags for several weeks of travel all around scenic New York State. Shooting for the "NY Welcomes You DVD", Dave used a Panasonic DVCPRO50 camera to shoot beautiful images that will welcome potentional visitors to the area.

Armed with a micro-dolly, a matte box, a wide angle lens, and sometimes even a jib arm, Dave was able to shoot over 15 hours of footage to be featured in various clips of all 11 regions of NY.

The DVD will be distributed to via US mail to those who request it, with a projected distribution of 250,000. In April and May of 2005, Dave was also on hand to oversee the edit of the project which featured an opening 6 minute video, showing each region for 30 seconds, and 11 regional videos with voice over that were 2 mintues each.

A summary of the images Dave shot can be seen here (this is not the actual "NY Welcomes You product", although it's pretty darn good. It is a "pilot" video that was created by Dave before the final video went to edit.) To see more individual clips from the final project, visit nywelcomesyou.com.
