Ray Roman 2014 San Diego Film Awards Interview

by Ray Roman in , , ,

Here's an unreleased interview I did back in 2014 for the San Diego Film Awards when I was nominated for Best Cinematography in the Music Video category for the "Supermodel Suitcase" music video for Monkeys In Space. The 2017 San Diego Film Awards are just around the corner so I thought I would share this video from a few years back.

It’s been a busy week covering Kovalev vs Ward and tonight it all goes down! Earlier this week I got to go to the Bleed For This movie premiere where I met the champ Vinnie Paz. Find our complete coverage at this playlist and checkout the photos below from some of our interviews. Stay tuned for all the post-fight coverage!

Ray vs Ray! (Mancini Wins)

Here's a fun clip of Ray Mancini and I shadowboxing. It was edited from 360-degree video I captured where I was able to make it look like we're facing each other. Down the line I will post an actual 360-degree video where you the viewer can control where you look within the scene. I had a great time with the champ a couple weeks back as we interviewed him, and drove around his hometown of Youngstown, Ohio.

12-day filmmaking trip

by Ray Roman in , , , , , , , ,

I've returned from a 12-day business trip just a few days ago. I'm finally getting around to writing a blog post about the journey. Where do I start? Well, within 12-days I traveled to 17 states which include California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, and Utah.

I'm working on a documentary with my business partner David Kano about C.T.E. (chronic traumatic encephalopathy). First we stopped at the Cleveland Clinic where we documented the testing done at the clinic, and sat down for some interviews.

Over these 12 days we interviewed MMA fighters, a former NFL player, doctors, and more. One of my favorite days was spending 10 hours with former WBA lightweight champion Ray ‘Boom Boom’ Mancini. Checkout the full MMA Now TV interview below.

Throughout this trip we talked with at least 8 people on camera, and met many more off camera. There’s a lot more I’d like to share about the journey but I’ve got to get back to work! Hopefully, some of the photos below will give you a glimpse of my experience.

The works not over.. still more people to meet, interviews to capture, and of course editing is going to be a huge part of this process. More to come, stay tuned!
