A
native of Northern California, Art Adams spent ten years in LA --
first at film school and then working in the film industry. He
started out as a camera assistant on low budget features and worked
his way into spots, music videos, features, sitcoms and episodic
television shows. He transitioned from assistant to operator to DP
by the time he returned to the San Francisco Bay Area in
1993.
Currently Art focuses his energies on shooting spots and high end corporate productions, as well as special venue and blue/green screen projects. If you'd like the long version of his bio, please click here.
Art works quickly, efficiently, and pleasantly, and has a very dry sense of humor.
