Bridge

Earlier this year, a friend of mine asked to help him out on a short film. The film was to be an entry for a Canon/Vimeo contest. I served as assistant director on the project and while we didn't win the contest, I did learn a lot from being on the set. Here's Bridge

Recent viewings

It's been so long since I've touched this thing! Almost a year to the day! However, fear not (one follower that I have), as the great Vincent Van Gogh once said, "I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, and I will go on with my drawing". But in my case, replace pencil with camera and drawing with filmmaking. : )

I have worked on a few project since I've last been here and I have a few projects in the works right now. Sooner or later (hopefully more sooner than later), I'll have those up for your viewing pleasure.

Sooo, what have I watched this last week. Here it is:

-Taken
-Bad Lieutenant Port of Call: New Orleans
-Enter the Dragon
-Zombieland
-Law Abiding Citizen
-Eraserhead
-Mulholland Drive
-Inkheart
-Astro Boy
-Planet 51
-Toy Story 2
-Pretty much every Studio Ghibli film. (In the near future, I'll be posting an essay on Studio Ghibli and the beauty of this studio's films)

I watched some others but I can't recall their names at the moment. Anyways, glad to be back and I look forward to sharing my knowledge of film here as well as showcasing my films!

Movie Mode

For nearly the last year, I've been on a hiatus from writing and filming. Why? Hell, I dunno. I just been too preoccupied with other things I guess. But hey, I'm back now. I've been penning a lot of ideas the last couple months and this past week, I was able to to sort through them and really focus on which ones I want to write and shoot. I won't spoil anything so you're gonna have to wait and see what monsters I'm creating! : ) I'm really excited about it though. I'm drawing from a lot of inspirations and resources so it should be good. Stay tuned!
