JOHN S. BULLARD
Cameraman and Chief Flapper
I have told
my fair share of stories with pictures and sound over my thirty plus years in television news at
both the local and network level. Starting in 1975, I began learning my craft at local TV stations throughout the
South, shooting and editing 16 mm film and learning a new camera system called ENG.
In 1980 I moved to
Washington, D.C. to join a fledgling news organization called CNN. As one of the original camera crews for CNN in Washington, I
helped cover the last days of the Carter Administration, Ronald Reagan's landslide election, the American hostages returning
from Iran and the assassination attempt on President Reagan. Within a year, I joined ABC News in Washington. For the
next twenty years I traveled the U.S., the Caribbean, Central America, and Europe covering news, politics, sports,
& events of the day based in Washington and Atlanta, Georgia.
In September
2001, after twenty years with ABC News, I started Lip Flap Productions. It all starts with perspective.
If you love your job, it really isn't a job and I love what I do. I put over thirty years of experience to work
for you everyday. The result is the highest quality product for you my client.
