He began his career as a sound recordist with the Reuters news agency in 1994. He then became a cameraman at the BBC where he was nominated for Royal Television Society award. From there he spent 4 years working for the Award winning London Today & London Tonight programme before going freelance for 4 years during which time he worked on numerous prime time network shows. His work has taken him to over 40 countries worldwide shooting a wide range of genres which he would still be doing today if were not for an accident whilst filming on Mont Blanc in France that forced him to retire from shooting. Since he stopped shooting has been advising and consulting with Production companies who want to embrace HD and File Based production workflows. Philip Bloom – Director Philip is a filmmaker and blogger and the worlds leading authority on the correct use of DOF adaptors and how to create the film look with your video camera. He has earned this accolade through passion and dedication. He has shared every part of his journey honestly and from the soul, allowing film makers all over the world to grow as a direct result of his advice, reviews and openness to comment good an bad about kit and film making resources and technology. With 20 years of experience in shooting, editing and directing he has filmed for all the major UK Networks as well as many US Networks and channels like Discovery HD. Philip has become a pioneer and leading voice on the convergence of Digital Photography and Filmmaking. He reviews kit based on what it can do in the field, how it looks, feels, handles and how easy it is to get the footage into edit and grade. “The F-stop Academy re-defines learning on-line for the digital film maker.” So often the internet as a whole can be a frustrating environment to learn from, too many conflicting views, and frankly there is no one single point of reference. In short it’s mostly opinion and all too often too many assumptions are made about your level of basic knowledge and understanding. We set up this store to fulfill one purpose and that is to provide one destination to find all the products (other than the camera) that you need to get the very best from your D-SLR shooting in video mode. We have researched products that we not only endorse but truly believe to be the best there are. These are the products that we use and recommend personally. We are based in the UK.
