Batman and Robin, Dog and Beth, Mr Miyagi and the Karate Kid… now Dale and Diane!February 03 2014
Welcome to Affinity - Diane Camelin - Administrative Assistant. Dale now has a right-hand "man".
As the administrative assistant, Diane is responsible for helping Dale out with accounting duties, production services bookings and occasionally donates her time to production projects. With a friendly personality big enough to fill the office, Diane’s dedicated approach to her work shines through with her quirkiness and attention to detail. It’s rumoured around these parts that she has only ever been seen with a smile on her face. We're waiting …
Affinity welcomes new blood and an extra set of hands!January 23 2014
Meet Max Moskal - Post-Production Assistant. We're happy to welcome Max, the ultimate handyman of post-production, to the Affinity Production family. A graduate of the Television Broadcasting program at Algonquin College in 2012, some of Max’s responsibilities include (but are certainly not limited to) content editing, digital capturing, and preparing shows for air. Minute by minute, Max deploys his knowledge of basically everything, and no matter how busy, he possesses a charm even he can’t figure out. One day, we'll track how much ground he covers moving from edit suite to edit suite.
Those Canadians Media Group - THE Ultimate Fighters!January 16 2014
With the premiere of TUF Episode 1 now behind us, we congratulate the team at "Those Canadians Media Group" and the 30 plus Ottawa-based crew members who have made this spectacular reality series a "reality". Mike, Dave and Don of Those Canadians are no dummies and knew where to go for both production and post-production support - Affinity Production Group - of course. We are extremely proud to be associated with this high profile series. Affinity's Production Services Department supplied numerous Sony PMW-F55’s, PMW-F3’s, PDW-F800’s cameras as well as Fujinon Cabrio lenses, Canon HD lenses, a myriad of unique camera support equipment and a truckload or two of lighting and grip gear. Perhaps the biggest challenge was gearing up for post-production, literally doubling our media storage and Avid editing capacity in a two week period. The talented folks on the day and night shifts are still busy putting together the remaining episodes. What a ride! The Affinity team ALWAYS makes Ron proud.
