| Biography: |
Bruce Manning knew as early as 9th grade that he wanted to be a cameraman.
After high school he studied photography in college and soon after graduating found a job as a graphic artist on Star Trek, The Motion Picture. He worked his way up through the ranks, operating motion control cameras (cameras powered by computers) for the visual effect industry.
For several years he worked at a fashionable Hollywood production company, Robert Abel Productions. As an effects cameraman he won several Cleo awards for shooting TRW, AT&T, Levi Strauss, and Panasonic Glider. Another large job included Michael Jackson’s Triumph video.
Later, while working at Richard Edlund’s Boss Film Inc. Bruce refined his skills while shackled to the optical printer. While doing his time, he worked on jobs such as Tron, Indiana Jones, Buckaroo Bonsai, and Alien 3.
Working in live action production, he worked on high profile feature films that required long hours under sometime harsh conditions. Just a few of these included Turner & Hooch, Terminator 2, Patriot Games, Man Without a Face, Beethoven’s 2nd. On a second unit crew, Bruce rigged cameras on vehicles such as insert cars, airplanes & boats. These were some of the tools used in getting the shots that make these films so exciting to watch.
When at last he’d enough, he had gained the experience to start his own company. He moved up and out to Director of Photography and CEO of Footage Now.
Footage Now is a production company which offers 35mm motion picture images to the masses. Furnishing images for national commercials, major feature films, TV shows, and corporate videos, his work has been widely viewed. Clients have included Mc Cann Erickson, Universal Studios Hollywood, Saatchi & Saatchi, Sprint PCS, and Radio City Music Hall.
Bruce shoots with a Mitchell Fries 35mm film camera. In the past 10 years he has stock piled an impressive, eyepopping array of images; from lush tropical beach scenes to New York City, kids, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Paris, London, Car Pov’s, desert images, waterfalls, clouds, suns, people, surfing, golfing, Americana, and the kitchen sink.
He edits with a Mac G5 and all the Adobe software he can jam into it. |
