  Lone Star Park at Grand Prairie

  Apr 2012 - Jul 2014

  Camera Operator

  I operated a camera in camera tower #5, about 60 feet up. My responsibilities included the operation and maintenance of a professional video camera during live horse races. I was responsible for 'white-balance' before every race. I had the instruction of keeping the entire field of horses in frame at all times, sometimes this was impossible, so my judgement was important. My footage was used for the judges scrutiny, for showing on the grandstand's jumbotron,(when the horses rounded my turn on the track) and for simulcast to various racetracks around the world. When the days races were completed, I had specific care instructions for the camera and it's dolly frame.Greatest bunch of coworkers I've ever been lucky enough to work with. Show less
