The pilot is sitting to my right, so I'm hiding him. It's weird because you (at least I don't) feel at all height conscious up there. You take the doors off and try like hell to make sure nothing fall out. Nothing did, but I've heard of people losing their glasses.

This project was really to document Benny Chan as he was shooting from the other helicopter, so we had to Jet Rangers up that afternoon - about a month ago.

When you're a thousand feet above the Staples Center and nothing between you and the other chopper, it's really hard to get a feel for how far apart you are. I think at one point we were about 100 feet apart. Nice to have pilots with 30 years of experience.

I'll post some of the other shots next week.

Dean was shooting with a Sony or Canon Hi-def. No Red there. He was doing a little documentary on Benny's project of shooting L.A. freeway interchanges, that will be shown at the show opening in Pasadena in May.

Having seen a couple of test prints, all I can say is that if you're in Southern California, it will be a worthwhile night out.
