Not bad for a first client…
For those of you who took the Travel Channel Academy in Santa Barbara or Los Angeles, or who were in the Radio Free Europe bootcamps in Prague, Yaroslav Kofman will be a familiar face.
He was the Russian trainer guy.
At 23, he has also become an accomplished VJ who is creating an interesting niche for his VJ work.
Yesterday, I got a call in the middle of the WEtv Film Academy training session. It was Yaroslav and he was in NY. Did I have time for a cup of coffee.
Sure.
Yaroslav had brought along his new iPad and was busy showing me his latest work.
When I last talked to Yaroslav he was using his video skills to create very high end wedding videos. Now, he’s branched out, and to a very good place. He’s doing videos for very high end corporate clients – like private jet rentals and luxury hotels. He shoots everything with his Canon Mark2 DSLR camera and a moderately wide angle lens. He cuts on Final Cut on a Macbook and he has built his own invention – a kind of portable track that allows him to move the camera along the ground.
It’s a cool machine.
Take a look at the quality of the work that he is producing on his own.
Pretty good for a 23-year old VJ.
His clients do too.

Nice work.
I’ve seen several tracking devices for DSLR cameras already on the market.
