This is somewhat of a job profile on a job that is ultimately pretty boring to watch in action, that of the baseball manager. But the way the NYTimes managed this is to find something interesting about the manager in question, the fact that he has played chess from a very early age, and ask him how chess and baseball share the same set of skills and how he can benefit in one game by knowing the other. They mix some stills in to show the manager during a game setting, but the video footage they use is much more in key to what the story is about.

I shot a lot of stuff this last weekend and my favorite has to be the stuff I did on Sunday. I shot the Mizzou Cycling club, who were hosting a midwest collegiate regional meet. I used my first remote camera set-up and was pretty stoked with what came back. Here’s a few shots.
