Derek and I have been working on features together for about 10 years now. He started off as a 2nd A.C. with me on many commercials and music videos and has now moved into the Hurlbut Visuals Elite Team with grace and expertise. Derek has an “All in” attitude and is very supportive. He has Zen focus abilities and has a snake charmer always nearby for guidance when the 5D gets down in the 2.0 range. He never fails and always comes in with a smile. Derek has fully embraced this technology in going back to school to understand the still menu and platform to best educate and inspire young filmmakers.
