Burghart and Ricciotti share the standard camera package used by VICE DPs


In this video, Burghart and Ricciotti share the standard camera package used by VICE DPs, as well as their customized C300 rigs that they regularly take into protests, war zones, and international conflicts of every shape and size.

 VICE on HBO takes you deep into the world’s biggest political and cultural clashes. To capture the hair-raising stories you see on screen, VICE Media’s Director of Photography Jake Burghart and Segment DP Jerry Ricciotti are no strangers to shooting in extreme conditions -- and need reliable gear to keep up with their immersive documentary shooting style. Find out why Jake and Jerry turn to the Canon EOS C300, XF105, XF305, and 5D Mark III to get the job done and learn how they configure their cameras while shooting in hostile environments. Then, check out their work by watching VICE on HBO, Fridays at 11PM.
