Round Valley reservoir was the site of this Half Iron distance Triathlon. It's a beautiful lake and we shot a lot of great scenic shots which were used in the scenic open of the film.
The race was staged by Mike Nusbaum and his paceracing.org and NJMultisport race event companies.
We also expanded the use of our HD Hero camera, mounting it on the top of a long pruning pole to get the tree shots around the transition area. We had one of the swimmers wear it for the beginning of the swim and we also placed it on a bicycle helmet as well. It was a very long day and quite a different vibe from the Olympic distance triathlon we shot in Oxford NJ the previous month...in the longer races, the athletes spread out a lot more and makes it harder to cover with just two cameras. Next year, we go to three cameras, the HD hero, an assistant and a motorcyclist for the road shots instead of our fat van.
