Atlanta photographer and inline skater John Kelso

john kelso

This still motion video was shot by Andrew Kornylak for a Nikon promotional advertisement.

The entire video was shot with a Nikon D3, shooting at 11 frames per second. Kevin Raser helped with assisting Andrew during some of the shooting that was basically all wrapped into one rainy day session with some of the best Atlanta folk and one day of hurting myself while the camera wasn’t rolling sound.

    Kelso seems like a really good guy. It’s interesting hearing something about Kevin Raser. I used to live one neighborhood over from him and his brother in Lithonia, GA. They were pretty much the antithesis of my childhood: they always had the newest skates, were always going places like Woodward and had a fun little mini in their backyard. I’m not surprised they got good with that kind of support.

    i love how he says, we respect security guards as he skitches on the back of the little security cart

    Word up brotha. Respect.

    thankyou! finanly a rollerblader who doesnt have a negative opinion to a security gaurd who’s just doing their job! NO ONE can deny that what we don damage property, because the fact is we do, so they have every right kicking us off places.
