Weekend Warriors 3D
They Are Out There
Ordinary people who can't wait to release their Inner Warrior ... Every WeekendAcross the country, there is an amazing transformation that takes place every Friday. We will witness this transformation in the personalities beginning on Monday, where the wild child is buried deeply and safely within. As Friday approaches, glimpses of the wild side are revealed until containment is virtually impossible. The person we saw on Monday is no more. We are now experiencing someone way different It is the true alter ego. The animal is loose. Doctors, lawyers, truck drivers, teachers, artists etc. will be chosen from each activity and followed each week as they live for the weekend. We follow them as they finally satisfy their adrenaline jones for two days at the end of each workweek in 3D.

35 years - Bruce Austin Productions A Production / Post Production Company
2011 - As DP / Stereographer, Arena Films' 'Experience 3D' was shot for Discovery 3Dnet. Supervised three camera crews from October to January while crossing the US to gather slices of American Life. Ten hour long episodes were produced. Developed new proprietary work flows and organized a team of experts to produced quality Imax dimensionalization (2D to 3D conversion) at Stereoscope Studios in Burbank, Calif. In August worked as DP/Stereographer on JWM Production of Discovery's Ancient Worlds 3D (Episode 4: Maya / Guatemala)In September began the production of "Weekend Warriors" as Producer, DP and Stereographer. See information under current shows.Experience 3D premiers:May: Experience 3D "Hot Air Balloons"June: Experience 3D "New York Ships" Experience 3D "Malibu" Experience 3D "Road to Hana" Experience 3D "Rock Climbing" Experience 3D "Race Cars"August: Experience 3D "Washington DC" Experience 3D "Paving America" Experience 3D "Small Planes" Experience 3D "Thrill Rides"2010 Developed a new camera system in early 2010 that would fulfill the needs of the documentary film community. Success was achieved with the help of Stereoscope, Element Technica, Silicon Imaging and CineDeck. In March 2010 a prototype mirror rig was shown to John Honecutt (CTO) of Discovery. Forty eight hours later, shooting of MythBusters in 3D began with 747 engines blowing over cars. In six weeks & 25,000 miles as DP / Stereographer, Mythbusters, Cake Boss, VIR Speed Way and the Brazil Amazon project were shot in the 2K Cinema digital process. In August & September, "Africa Safari 3D'" became a reality. As DP / Stereographer, a seven week shoot was undertaken with the most grueling, hardest, physically demanding conditions that 3D has ever encountered. Over 200 hours of amazing footage of Africa is now in the can. Trained three camera crews who had never shot 3D in the art of 3D production, a daunting task inside a Land Cruiser in the middle of Africa.2009 As Stereographic Producer / Consultant on the feature film Dance Machine and its music video, pioneering leaps were made with slow motion Stereo and the Phantom 2K cameras shooting up to 1000 fps. Shots from this project have been acclaimed as some of the finest Stereo 3D produced to date. In late 2009, brought together a production team (including 3ality Digital) for the multicamera shoot of Phil Driscoll's Divine Awakening. The show was performed in the Basilica of Constantine which is the oldest Roman single-room structure in the world.Current Clients & projects: •Arena Films "Experience 3D" -Documentary - Jed Weintraub / Nick Goldfarb •Wild Eyes "Africa 3D Safari" -Documentary- Eric Ustain•Eight Ball Productions "Dance Machine" - Feature Mark Harris / Dan Harris •"Divine Awakening" -Concerts Phil Driscoll / Tom Harriman •Red Earth Studio / Sky "Amazon Project" -Documentary Adam Docker•"Space Camp" -Feature- Dean Andre / Nancy Criss •Stereo Media -Industrials - Anthony Coogan / Michael Starks •Stereoscope LLC -Corporate 3D & Stereo Dimensionizaion - Jeff Pierce •3ality Digital Sports- Ted KennySix Unique contributions to the Stereo 3D world: 1 35 years successfully owning a Production / Post Production Company, 2 Expertise in 3D Pre-Production, Production & Post Production with a work flow analysis that saves clients time and money 3 Thorough understanding of the concepts and pitfalls of 3D 4 Nine years teaching at USC & co-founding the Cinema Video Department. 5 Willingness to teach & consult with new companies and their staff in the art of Stereo 3D production. 6 Understanding the problems of 2k, 4K workflow of Arri Alexa, Red Epic, Phantom, Sony & SI-2K cameras systems for features and the 3D HD world of Sony, Panasonic, Canon and JVC that are being used on documentary projects throughout the world.
