Just got back from the Mojave Desert shooting a movie.

It was refreshing to get away with a hard working, small, kind, and humble crew.

I do miss it.

I went to Arizona to shoot a western. 

Go to my flickr page to see some photos I took while I was there. 

Here is a video I made with only SOME of the behind the scenes footage I shot.

It was nice out.

I love nature.

Mid terms.

For our mid terms we are required to shoot a short scene from a film that has previously been produced. We are free to interpret the scenes any way we want when it comes to production design, genre, and much more. It has been a great experience to learn how to start from total scratch, to making it through to the end with something tangible and rewarding. 

Each week we shoot three different scenes on three different sound stages we have at our school. I'm going to post one of the many sets that I got to be a part of.
