Rich Underwood directs Qualcomm WirelessLife.Com Trilogy

Qualcomm's "Wireless Life" trilogy is set to premier on-line in April 2008. On location at the San Diego Children's Museum. Production Designer Jeff Gonka (VanMark Scenic) set the stage to look like an international airport terminal. I'm making a point about something, it seems to be important.

"Rich Underwood’s book is the first comprehensive study of a subject that has been shrouded in mystery for too long. I’ve always felt there’s a real art to shooting news and documentary-style productions; finally someone has come along and proven it. Practical advice and insights from working professionals are mixed with technical information in an easily readable style. I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in the subject, even if they’re only shooting home movies!"
