I worked as a network freelance camerman for the three major network news departments in New York; NBC, ABC and CBS.

I could tell stories as long as you buy the beer!

I was a network news cameraman and video editor for 38 years.
Boy! Do I have stories to tell!

I own a 2022 Ford Ranger truck. There will be videos about that.

I'm an amateur radio operator, KK5DON, and I'll have stories as I rebuild my station.

I have other great videos you can explore now, such as...

- Planning a route at home on Google Maps and then exporting it to your mobile Google Maps, and, if you have CarPlay, use your mobile Google Maps app to guide you on your planned route step by step.

- Using multicam to sync and edit two or more cameras and audio sources.

- Amateur radio on the Goldwing and using a Bluetooth helmet communicator to operate it.

- The Cruiseman and how Chris Dikmen became The Cruiseman.

- How I get my phenomenal riding shots using 360º video.

- How to use CarPlay on the 2018+ Goldwing.

- And much more!

Here's my original cut of the Drowning Puppy video.
Four media companies asked to use this and all cut it down to be shorter..
But, between them, it got nearly 80 million views!

The camera used that's looking back at me on the motorcycle is the Insta360 ONE X. I've produced a tutorial of how I use this 360º camera to capture everything around me but only use an HD view of my choice in a traditional edit.

Here's my Amazon Associate links. Ordering through these links benefits me but does not add to the price you pay.

My point-of-view camera on my helmet is the Sena 10c Evo. I like it because it records video and it records all audio from the earphones except for phone calls. It also records all audio from its mic so you can motovlog!
