Inspiration to Innovation: Chancellor's Report 2011

Last month, UH hired me to shoot photos for the 2011 Chancellor's Report! The report was to be used for APEC, so I was really stoked to shoot this project! I did shoots at five locations, over the course of three days. It was really hectic, but a lot of fun :) Sherrie Dodo, from UH Creative Services, was the art director on the shoots and assisted me with lighting and set up.

One of the coolest location shoots by far, was with Rick Rocheleau (pictured above), head of the Hawaii Fuel Cell Test Facility. Tons of computers, generators, machines, and tanks provided a lot of opportunities for interesting shots.  The contraption that Rick is holding is a fuel cell, and a machine pushes hydrogen through the cell to create electricity.
