a lengthy shoot, but well worth it

I finished shooting a Range Rover spot. It was a long one. 7 days, somewhat narritive. I'm very excited about the outcome. 

I did, however, bust out the hipstamatic during the tech scouts to snap some shots.

downtown is so pleasant this time of year.

.....don't worry kids. That's a fake rat that I dressed to be dead. Don't call animal control on me just yet.

Yes, that is a seat of trash. Trash seat. So beautiful. Thank you under the 6th street bridge.

The photo below is a screenshot of the bedroom set I dressed. The art is compliments of the ever talented Alex Eckman-Lawn

You can't have a successful shoot without having gangster's line-dancing.

When it is all said and done I had a lot of fun with a lot of cool people, made some new friends, lost some sleep, and got to teach an 80-year-old woman how to shoot a revolver.

Mission accomplished. What mission, I don't know, but some mission somewhere.

the 1 hour of sleep post

I arrived at work at 3 pm today after working all morning. I thought it would be a 12 maybe 13 hour shoot for a music video I was art directing.

It is always beautiful working down town. However, as the work "day" passed along, I got more and more ambitious:

7pm

Cause I was working with a bunch of smoking Frenchmen

Then 11:30 rolls around

Starting to get loopy

Now it's 3:45am

Starting to loose grip with reality. Manual labor, running around, shooting in a parking structure for 12 hours...

5:04am

Just done.

I finally got home at 6:30. Went to bed for 1.5 hours. Woke up. Here I am....

The Maiden Voyage

This is the first posting of my blog. Actually this is my first blog ever.
I guess the point of this is just to put stuff up that I like/make/working on. Right now I'm working on this, so that's no exciting. But I'll add pictures soon! And other stuff.
