The Boxer

I recently dropped by Joe Hand’s Boxing Gym in Philadelphia to test out a new piece of video gear that I am really excited about. The Glidetrack SD is a nifty aluminum slider for small video cameras. It allows you to get cool tracking shots that can take your videos to the next level. I have never had such a simple and relatively inexpensive piece of video gear add so much polish to my videos, right out of the box.

I was fortunate to drop in on the workout of Kenneth Weister, a 32 year old personal trainer/fitness consultant and amateur boxer who has won some city championships including the 2007 Philadelphia Golden Gloves Championship. Ken is a few fights away from turning pro and I’m happy that he allowed us to take a few shots of him.
