Prison of Wires

I had an amazing experience in San Francisco last weekend. Words can't express how free I felt; not having to drive anywhere really takes the edge off. Plus there's nothing like exploring small shops and dark alleys. It's unfortunate that these feelings have faded so quickly, but at least I have some pictures to remember the trip by:

Never Clean

Watch as the world slowly crumbles around us..

Clear Your Mind, and Focus

Worry Not, Citizens..

Pictures to be used in the "Photo booth slides" to border the main photo (which won't be posted until the calendar's release) for the Good Juju charity calendar.

Not There

I really want to be around creative, productive people. Where are they all hiding?

Loose Looks

Finished doing headshots for my friend Evan. I always avoid using natural light because there are never clouds in Simi and the light is -always- too harsh. If you can find the right natural lighting, it can out perform artificial light ten fold. Today was an average, overly bright day... but thank goodness for building shadows!

Summ-er..

My beloved friend Daryl is leaving to Germany for over a month! It's not -that- long... but it sure seems like it will be considering she's my creative soul mate. The other side of the world is a long ways away. Did another Pin-up calendar shoot tonight with Erin. We were going for one or two good shots, so it was pretty quick (Unless you were standing on a chair the whole time). Mad props to Ken for being such a wonderful "Slasher".

Robert & Bethany with M.E.

I just found out about this slide-show thing from flickr and how to embed it, so I wanted to try it out here.

Coldwater

How exciting! The movie poster I designed for "Savanna" is on IMDB!

Here are a few teaser pictures I took for "Coldwater". My cousin Vinny wrote the script for it years ago; it had funding and was all ready to be made. But things fell through so it got put on hold. There are new potential investors for it, so it's back in the works.

Intergalactic Robot Wars

So tired. Green Screen shoot.
Super unofficial play editing:

So Tired..

The past week was overloaded with projects. No time to edit. I feel exhausted and overwhelmed with loneliness at the same time. Eight months past and I still feel half empty. It's late, I need to get to bed.

Movie Poster from tonight:

The Earth is on Fire, and You are the Sea

Daryl does such a great job of making this field look peaceful and relaxing. There were bugs and prickly plants everywhere; I'm lucky to have such an incredible model and friend to work with!

More f/1.4 Play

I'm not sure what to say about this dog. Very cute, but she always looks scared

Playing with f/1.4

These were test shots with an 85mm f/1.4 lens. The lens is full manual, and the tiny depth of field makes it a little difficult to get sharp focus without an auto focus. But I love it, and it was $1,700 less than the Canon name brand equivalent.

Zombie Apocalypse

I'm sure you were aware that there was stuff dripping from Parker's mouth, and had absolutely no desire whatsoever to know what it was. Which is why I'm going to tell you. It's Salsa. Not brains or naturally gross looking saliva; it's good 'ol fashion tomatoes and cilantro.
