I never thought I’d shoot with so much pink, but a recent collaboration with my friend Chandra Auge proved that 1) I can do it 2) it can be cool & 3) I might even do it again. Chandra and I embarked on a plan, earlier this year, to collaborate on a few different test [...]

I just finished up a little side project for a local furniture designer: urbancase. Darin Montgomery is the guru behind the furniture design. He came to me to help out with a small motion project that would contextualize the new piece he was unveiling at a big trade show in NYC in mid May – [...]

:: Another Shoot
Yesterday I was testing out an idea that I’ve been toying with for awhile: Pinhole for motion. My test consisted of shooting on stills in sequence for motion and a pinhole with an f/stop of about f256. What that means is you need a ton of light to make an exposure. We shot on stage [...]

I was shooting a music video for local Seattle band: Beads. My long time collaborator and friend and cinematographer Doug Hostetter and [...]

:: EuroCrossCamp
I’ve been working on a little side project. One of my “hobbies” is racing bikes. To stay involved in that community, I’ve been supporting an organization called EuroCrossCamp (ECXC). ECXC is a development camp for bike racers in the heart of the Flanders countryside in Belgium; arguably the epicenter of bike racing. Geoff Proctor runs [...]

Dry Rain is still out on the film festival circuit. We just played the Port Townsend Film Festival in late September and we are playing this weekend in North Carolina! I got a random email from the director of the Sandhills Film Festival in Fayetteville, NC a few weeks ago. They invited us [...]

It is always nice to get honored with a nomination for an award. My work on the True Blood opening credits got a nomination this summer. It was a great honor, but the real shout out goes to the good people at Digital Kitchen for bringing me on to help them out. It was a [...]
