For our next video in the Oregon Film Summer Interns’ “Oregon Vendor Spotlight” series (above) we visited Koerner Camera Systems in Portland.
Koerner Camera Systems provides cameras and equipment to many film and television productions in Oregon.

Thanks to the infrastructure they have created, other productions in the state now have access to cutting edge technology and equipment.
