My first selfie on my first major movie set. Really don't miss the COVID stuff during that but definitely felt like home being on that film set.

Yes, I do photography as well. My video work drowns it out a bit, but I can provide it!
You really, really do understand the importance of a data wrangler when you shoot a short film and are also stuck labeling every file properly before you can edit it. 😅😖
Gonna be doing some Google Drive and Dropbox cleaning soon. If I sent you a download link over a year ago, it's time to make sure you got it downloaded.
I'm ready when you are!
Finally, found an article on the movie I was on crew a few months ago. Woooh! I'm also possibly gonna be in it too. :)
The film heralds from USC alum Harry Locke IV whose credits as an on-line editor and in VFX include The Wolverine and X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Alright, so I am beginning to raise funds for this upcoming documentary. Included in the campaign are details as well as a video describing what the film or series will be about. Feel free to show some support or share around. I will be posting updates as well. Also, right now is a working title at the moment. I will eventually find one to stick with.
This is to help raise funds for a proper production of a documentary for the 502 rock scene. | Check out 'The Rise of the Louisville, KY Rock-Metal Scene' on Indiegogo.

Well, that's a film wrap for me in 2023. I had the honor to film a ton of projects this year so here is a solid highlight of most of them for 2023. Enjoy!
A good chunck of sample projects I filmed and completed through the year 2023. Filmed using Blackmagic Design and Panasonic Cameras.
Well, 2023 is finally wrapping up and I will say that one of my greatest film highlights ever in my life so far has been spending 9 weeks with such an amazing cast and crew on the set of Queen of the Ring. I seriously have never gotten so close to an amazing cast on a major film and dream of even meeting the folks I met in the process. Leaving on the last day of this film was one of the hardest things I ever done. It was all a dream come true snd the love and respect they showed me on this movie is something I will never forget.
Decided to change things up a bit and work on making (customizing) characters for Adobe Character Animator. Hoping to move up to the next level with this to make more creative explain videos with it. Anyway, still working on more tracking stuff but still fun to play with.
More physical and scientific proof that I can actually hold a camera.
Getting our show on at the Ville TV Network.
I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Valentine's Day....and if V-Day isn't your thing, just have an awesome Friday!

It's all still a work in progress, but I'm still enjoying making stuff with C4D. Next, I'd like to actually get 3D objects in the real work. It'll be my next quest involving all this. Either way, enjoy a but of past 3D work I played around with. #3danimation #cinema4D #video #graphics
