On Set: "Mastering the Wink"

I was up in Northridge on Saturday taking stills on the set of a short film. Met some good people. Here are the actors.

Jesse Lenat

Jesse Lenat is an actor and musician. These two images are from the Sweet Little Lies shoot way back in the summer at Fremont street. I want to play the guitar like Jesse.

Dan

Dan is a writer who lives in Santa Monica. He recently entered a contest and had his short story read by his hero Chuck Palahniuk. We Had some fun playing around with this moose head.

3 Months of iPhone

I really love my iPhone camera and the various photo editing applications. I use mainly "Best Camera" and "Camera Bag". It is so nice to just be able to take a picture at anytime, touch it up and post. I have been lagging on the latter part of that except for the occasional post on facebook. Mobile photography is really taking off and it is exciting!

Here are several of mine from the last few months.

Aquarium of the Pacific

I went to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach yesterday for my Dad's birthday. Very fun taking pictures there. Especially the jellies, I loved the light.

Sunrise Monument Valley

I plan on posting several pictures from my adventures this summer on "Sweet Little Lies." We were shooting in amazing locations.

Sweet Little Lies

Is this thing on? I have been MIA for sure! With moving from NYC back home I've been spending my time...well...in NYC! ha! Was finishing up an edit on Jeff Sousa's thesis film and then spent all my free time tearing apart my room and cleaning up!

Now I'm in Kansas editing a feature!! Here are some still from the first 2 days of production!

Double Whip Chain: Ryan Lloyd

My buddy Ryan is an amazing martial artist. A couple weeks ago I got to see him do his thing with the double whip chain. Awesome.

My last week in NYC

Been missing a good internet connection and my computer since my move to California. Before i left i took a nice elevator ride to the TOP OF THE ROCK! Nice view and much much faster than the Empire State trip.

A Holga picture

Couple with a Tree

A trip to California, a sudden onset of Appendicitis, in the thick of editing a film, gradation, and moving have all kept me from my fun blogging!  Please stay tuned and keep checking back!  NYC pics will soon be replaced by sunny images from California when I move in June.  

Central Park-Spring

New York was out in full force yesterday at the first site of sun and a temp that finally broke 70 in about 5 months.  Almost every inch of central park was covered in picnics and ball games.    

Cathedral

Another from my visit to St John.  

Easter

I went to St John the Divine Cathedral today.  It is a massive cathedral and reminds me of being in Europe.   

Rembrandt

I always find photographs of people in art museums interesting.  I went to the Met today and snapped a few of my own.  

Billy Pena

Billy works hard, but knows how to stretch out every once in a while.  Thought he was in a good spot for a photo, with with all the frames above him.  

Joe

Hanging with the Joe.  

Maya

Maya had this cool scarf that I found fun and colorful.  

On Set: "Stranger" GOODFELLAS!

One of the coolest things about working on the set of "Stranger" was that we were shooting at the GoodFellas diner.  This is the actual booth of that famous dolly out, zoom in shot....i think that's the way they did it.  Look for it next time you watch that flick.
