GMV's History at the Olympia from 1971 & Camera Team in USA since 1999.

I have in my archive some rare highlights footage from the first 6 Mr. Olympias, from 1965 to 1970. This was of course shot on film.

This Olympia team list includes all GMV in USA camera teams from 1999 to the present. Camera team means primarily shooting video, along with some photos. The Arnold Classic team history in Columbus will be listed separately at a later date. 

USA events covered by Wayne Gallasch (but not listing team details) include the Arnold Classic, Iron Man Pro, FitExpo, San Francisco GP, NOC, Phoenix GP and Flex Pro.
Wayne's current connection with the 1999 Olympia video camera team came from an invitation by Ben Weider and approved by the promoter Wayne DeMilia in conjunction with the official video producer Andy Olson of Magna Media. As Ben said in 1999, he had been aware for many years of Wayne's passion for capturing the history of bodybuilding  and major physique events on film and video. "Without these extraordinary efforts, the history of our sport would not have been so well preserved. Your committment to the Olympia since 1971 has been unwavering."

Many of the models shot on video (plus photoshoots) in the period described below, are thanks to the generous help of team member Richard Rossan. 

Poolside pumping and posing in short-time post Olympia shoots:

A brief word of explanation here. Often the winners or top competitors from the Olympia or Universe contests are only available for a short time for post event shoots. Looking for a pleasing and as private as possible location with no fans interrupting or walking across the background lead to "poolside shoots" in 1972. I much prefer a quiet beach or a park for outdoor shoots, but you take what you can get.

The first ever post Olympia poolside shoot was with Arnold and Franco in early 1972 in Australia, just after Arnold had won his second Olympia title. Franco was yet to become a Mr. Olympia (1976 and 1981). This shoot was at the old Chevron Hotel pool, in Surfers Paradise, Queensland. See photo taken of Arnold & Franco poolside at this shoot.

Later in 1972 I did a 30 minutes lakeside shoot of pumping and posing with Sergio Oliva in Wanstead Park, 2 days after he placed a very close second to Arnold in the Mr. Olympia in Essen, Germany. (See Wayne shooting lakeside with Sergio.)

Then one week later on the day of the Mr. Universe, I had 40 minutes to do a shoot with Frank Zane before we went to the Finals of the event where he was announced the Pro Class winner. There was no hotel pool in central London where I was staying, so we shot the posing footage and photos in the semi-private Hyde Park Square.

Jumping forward to 1977 in Paris, on the day after Sergio won the NABBA Pro Worlds, we shoot film and photos of Sergio pumping and posing hotel poolside in a now historic shoot. There have been dozens of poolside short shoots with many of the Olympia competitors, men and women and with many top IFBB stars.

From 2000 to 2004 when the Olympia was staged at the Mandalay Bay Hotel, the hotel would kindly block off for me one of the smaller swimming pool areas for my exclusive photography use from 8 till 11AM on Olympia Sunday. Below our first ever full GMV Team Shoot - 2000 Olympia Sunday.

Our GMV team in 2000 shooting Gunter’s posing at Red Rock Canyon, Las Vegas, on Olympia Sunday.  L to R - Dick Rossan, Wayne Gallasch, James Cook, Bill Comstock, Gunter and Carmen. Photo by team member Clive Jaques.

In 2001 our pool shoot was with the Overall Ms Olympia winner, Juliette Bergmann, as seen on the cover of her DVD.

In 2005 the Olympia moved to the Orleans and no private pool area was available there. Accordingly Andy Olson, long time producer of the Olympia DVDs, offered the use of his pool and garden for our GMV post Olympia shoots. The many Olympia competitors and other top IFBB people who have posed there are listed in the year by year history below.

Right after Ronnie Coleman won his final Olympia title, he also shot with me for 3 days in Australia, with pumping and posing, seminar, upper body training at Doherty's Gym in Melbourne, and leg training at my favourite gym here in Adelaide.

This now famous Las Vegas pool features on the cover for the DVDs for RONNY ROCKEL and also REGIANE DA SILVA, and YAXENI ORIQUEN just to name some of stars. The pool also appears in various cover shots of many other GMV DVDs.

Here is a short list of some of the Olympia competitors, men and women, who have done post Olympia pool shoots with me, primarily on the Olympia Sunday:

*Arnold Schwarzenegger
*Franco Columbu
*Sergio Oliva (twice)
*Ronnie Coleman
*Valentina Chepiga

OLYMPIAS YEAR BY YEAR.

1971  The first Olympia shot on film by Wayne was the 1971 Mr. Olympia in Paris, and won by Arnold Schwarzenegger. See more details below on these early Olympias shot on film.

Mr. Olympia – The Golden Years: 1971, 1974, 1975, 1979   In this historic Olympia DVD presentation, we have gathered together our rare and mostly previously unseen Olympia segments that were shot on super 8 film in the Golden 70s. As each segment seemed too short to release at the time, nothing happened till we obtained the wonderful and fantastic quality 20 minute film from the 1979 Mr. Olympia. This shows Frank Zane in his all time best condition defeating Mike Mentzer to win the Overall 1979 Mr. Olympia crown in Columbus Ohio. These are not complete Olympias but consists of the only known film footage from these famous contests.   See V-214DVD

1972  Wayne had a friend in Europe attend the 1972 Mr. Olympia in Essen, Germany to film the highlights for him. In this classic contest, Arnold narrowly defeated Sergio Oliva. This footage is seen in the DVD, ARNOLD - THE EARLY YEARS. See below.

Arnold - The Early Years   Apart from the 73 minutes of early contest and outdoor posing footage of Arnold and Franco, the bonus material from this collector's DVD includes more recent out-takes, on-stage and behind the scenes video from the Arnold Classic. See approximately 109 minutes of Arnold. In 1980 Arnold made his comeback in Australia at the Mr Olympia contest held at the Sydney Opera House. It was to be Olympia victory # 7. See his solo posing, many comparisons, compulsory poses and more as Arnold once again stands victorious. Includes scenes of many of his closest rivals from Mentzer to Zane etc. A tour de force with Arnold, since voted the most popular bodybuilder of all time. Includes highlights from the 1972 Olympia.

Gear:
Our new pieces of gear this year constituted a major upgrade. We had a new HD Fujinon lens XA20SX8.5 BMD, and the Fujinon RMD-20 remote control box for controlling this special lens. (Remote control of all 3 functions - focus, iris and zoom.)
To go with this new sharper technology we bought a Rockn 7" LED HD Video Monitor. Plus we used our Canon HD video camera for the closeup stage work.
