shipping off

Im on vacation. I want nothing to do with anything related to anything that even resembles filmwork. If you need something filmed. Call Seth. He has all my equipment for the time being.

Burnt out. Its about that time of the year I guess. fighting off a cold and sleeping all day. then shooting all day. I just wanna do music videos. That way I don't have to deal with actors.

Call Me


We shot this a couple of months ago. Seth came over one night and decided to shoot a short at 2 am. We called Jamiel up and he came over already buzzed from the party he was at. We like to take advantage of the fact that he can cry on command. We shot it without sound so I knew eventually we'd have to build everything from the ground up. So cut to a few months later and me and Seth finally get down to creating the sound. Literally everything you will hear in the video was created by us. Its probably the best thing we've done sound for.

Now I gotta go outside and pick up poop.

Pre-On Set Blog

There are many things that go through my head the night before or right before a shoot. I think I stopped being nervous to film stuff cause I feel really confident in my skills. I tell myself, Yes, this is what I should be doing. And Yes, I'm getting good at it. I think about all my peers that are venturing into the filmmaking world. My experiences, and the people I will meet will one day help me in the future. I think about my future and how scared I am. I don't want to be that guy. The kind of guy that goes to film school and then LA without a name or any contacts. Thats what I think about before a shoot.

Oh, and all this is done is 3 inch heels. (hehe)

Damn money vampires

just got hit with another damn fraudulent charge. The last time was through my bank and some crazy fool up in Istanbul. Got that taken care of. Now i got another one that completely wiped out my funds. Damn. And this one is through paypal, so I got a whole other thing to worry about. and all these damn customer service numbers are either closed on the weekends or close at 6. what the hell. As if things aren't stressful enough. its daylights savings and I have to get up and like 4am and go to Berkeley to PA for a Sag short. Damn. I hate banks and money and customer service people and the bastards that are stealing my fundage. Don't they know I'm a broke starving artist? haha. I can't complain tho. At least I have legs. Some people don't even have that.
