Using An (Awesome) One Man Band

Atlantic Covers The Point Guard
Well, not directly, maybe. But recently, we provided an ENG crew in Atlanta for an interview with a young and up-and-coming player for the Atlanta Hawks. Shot on a Canon C300, our two-man crew covered the interview and got some b-roll of the athlete practicing ahead...
Atlantic Awakens The Force at Lucasfilm
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... Okay, so it wasn't that long ago. It was right during the intense lead-up to Disney's first entry into their somewhat-newly-purchased super franchise--Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And it wasn't in a galaxy that far away;...
Atlantic Jams with BBC Four on “Rock ‘n’ Roll America”
Rock and roll is kind of our bread and butter. Would you expect anything less from the most American of video production services companies? While we love the Beatles, the Stones, The Police, and so many more awesome bands and artists who came from the U.K., we can't...
Atlantic Visits Death Row For Channel 4
One of our favorite films of all time is 1990's Academy Award winner for Best Picture "Ernest Goes to Jail," starring Jim Varney. We're pretty sure he won Best Actor for it, too. Or at least was nominated. (Sorry, we're not about to fact check that because you can't...
Atlantic Assists NOVA in “Making North America”

Atlantic Goes to Mars…Sort Of
One of our big talking points is how we have experienced broadcast-quality crew members all throughout the United States. For a few days, we also had crew on location on Mars...by way of Torrey, Utah that is. We recently worked with PMA Films on some promotional...
Red Carpet Coverage At The Critic’s Choice Awards
Atlantic helped out on the red carpet of the 2015 Critic's Choice Television Awards, broadcast on A&E. We provided camera operators, sound guys, additional crew, lights, cameras, and even director's chairs. The Atlantic crew was tasked with capturing on-the-fly...
Ushering in the “Dawn of Steel”
If someone walks into our office and says, "Do you guys love video?" we would all nod our heads in collective and enthusiastic agreement. But if that same person were to bust in and say, "Do you guys love video games?!" we would take out our controllers and regress...
Atlantic Celebrates America’s Birthday
Around the July 4th holiday each year, the video world tends to goes quiet for a bit. And understandably so! But to that, we say...nay. Much like our forefathers who rejected taxation without representation, we here at Atlantic celebrate not with hot dogs, bald...
Helicopters & Drones – What You Need To Know
Aerial videography is something we're seeing a lot more of these days. We've had our fair share of experiences up in the air, so we thought it might be helpful to shed some light on some of the finer details of taking to the skies. Helicopters Flying up in a...
Atlantic Under the Big Top
Cirque Du Soleil encapsulates basically everything that is great about entertainment: fire-breathers, worldly circus stylings, live music, outrageous costumes, mind-bending (spine-bending?) gymnastics, colorful lights, and an enrapturing storyline. The show has toured...
