Disturbed Concert Photography


Recently the 3Chip Media team was called into action at last minute notice by KRNA to shoot video of an interview with John Moyer of the rock band, Disturbed.
James Larson and "The Shark" went back stage to interview John when the band played a concert at the U.S. Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids.  With a limited space and the fact that KRNA was the only one granted permission for Photos and Video, they asked that we be especially discreet with the video recording.  So to solve the problem of  being conspicuous, we employed the use of a Flip Ultra HD camera.  These cameras can be used in a very wide variety of situations.  They don't get the best audio in the world, but the picture is actually quite stunning if used right.  This solved the problem and did a great job, the video was loaded withing a matter of about an hour of the interview for the KRNA viewers to see even before the show began.  It was a huge hit with a ton of comments on the KRNA facebook page.  Also there were several photos shot during the interivew that made the site also.
John then asked 3Chip Media's own, Shannon Appleby to stick around and take some photos of the show, he requested the one you see here in particular for some possible advertising in Magazines.
