LA TACOMPETENCIA
Role: Car Cabin Unit Director of Photography
Production Company: Vacationland
Agency: Así Studios / Univision
Director: Luis Tapia
Overview: Tacompetencia is a Toyota competition series bringing players together through a series of challenges on and off the road. I served as Director of Photography for the car-cabin unit, capturing the conversations and interactions between players while they drove through the course.
Approach: Working inside the vehicles required a compact, self-contained camera system that could capture multiple occupants without interfering with the drivers or the action. Cameras were rigged directly inside the cabins using ultra-wide lenses, allowing us to maintain coverage within an extremely limited footprint.
Because the production took place in a remote location and moved at a fast pace, the camera systems needed to remain secure, reliable, and quickly adaptable between vehicles while being operated and monitored remotely.
Camera System:
Sony Cinema Line cameras
DZOFILM ultra-wide lenses
Low-profile suction and hard-mount rigging
Remote camera monitoring and control
