22 Dec Canon Canada Inc. for Ivan Kristoff

The History
Ivan Kristof was in business to solve problems in the most time/cost-effective way and visually document his work. His first major investment in his rope access business was spent on photo and video cameras. His ongoing research and investment have produced a level of quality that surpasses the competition many times. It ensures that clients will get the best professionals in the business, advanced equipment and innovative service.

He always guaranteed that his work would be within schedule and budget. All work was monitored via Live video, wireless progression photography and mobile computing. In the time when mobile technology was not so popular and clients wanted to know what is on the outside of their building, Ivan was “their eyes”. He documented the conditions of their building envelops in pictures and words and fixed their problem if it originated on the exterior of your building or structure

In 1995, the “Toronto Sun” Newspaper, the largest in Canada, noticed Kristoff’s unique approach to start-up business and ran a full two-page spread of a feature story on Ivan Kristoff, plus a photo introduction “Ivan Kristoff: Toronto’s Own Spiderman Pages 16-17” to the article. The article “Spiderman… on a wall near you” created a big buzz in the largest Canadian city. It captures the interest of the public, the stuntmen and movie industry, the adventure seekers and extreme athletes, and the high-rise construction and property management industry. Of course, and on the media. The CBC TV and radio followed with a three (3) minute reportage on Live TV during Prime Time news in the evening and late evening.

Since then the legend of the Real Life Spiderman was created.

The Reversed Idea
Now, Ivan Kristoff can do it differently for clients. He wrote the concept of “Achieve New Heights” and developed it to benefit clients and show their products, software, and screenshots with dynamic, interesting, and original images.

The Success Story
In 2004, Ivan Kristoff invited Canon Canada’s videographer to the base of the SkyPod Panorama of the CN Tower, the World’s Tallest Freestanding structure at that time to film his World’s Tallest Rope Access Work. 

Ivan Kristoff’s Idea
To capture exciting images using specialized video equipment and a multi-setup of action cameras and produce the very first action documentary film with such action cameras.

Ivan can introduce an idea for a new way of filming and photography
This would be very helpful for progressive photography video monitoring of remote locations, confined spaces, and anywhere when needed.  The first filming of a series of extreme sports will be done during the “E.X.T.R.E.M.E.” TV Series The Premier of this TV series will be shown at #Buxtonheights
