These tips are fresh on my mind and since it was a highly specialized sport shoot on a short time-frame (ie: challenging from a production standpoint) I thought I’d talk a little about the casting process for this type of job.

I’ve said it before, but it would be remiss not to mention it again: Back up your data.
