New Short Film Posted: Lugubrious
Lugubrious is my newest short film. This one takes a somber approach, much different from everything else that I’ve done so far. It comes in at under one minute. Rationale I photographed and taped a wedding recently. While it was a joyous occasion, I couldn’t hep but think about those whose marriages are on the rocks. This video is for them. I aimed to capture the uncertainty and loneliness, but still offered a glimmer of hope at the end. I filmed this at the end of October when it was cold and rainy. A suitable atmosphere for such a short movie, I’d...

Last week I took a one-in-a-million chance to film in the most incredible light and color of the year. I had the camera and the willingness, but no subject matter, no script, and no props.

There were persons meandering about, just enough to cause a distraction while...

A few weeks ago I volunteered to film a school trip to Prospect Park‘s petting zoo. There was no money involved with me filming and no strings attached: I just wanted the opportunity to film anxious small children in high speed with ambient light. The experience would be good for me. Honestly, there were no expectations. No one had seen my work before. I didn’t know how the project would turn out. I wasn’t getting paid for it. Besides, the tiny camera that I showed up with looked no different from everyone else’s. I spent the period laughing and talking with the...
Read MoreHighly Anticipated Second Teaser to Launch
With the release of PARALLAX‘s trailer, I set out to entice the world with an ambiguous glimpse of my short movie. The idea was to stimulate the imagination. To piqué the interest. Based on the comments in different forums, comments on Facebook, and 1,100+ legitimate views on YouTube, I believe I did just that. I found out shortly after release that it was not a trailer, but a teaser, so I changed my description of it to make it easier on the viewer’s expectations. Many viewers asked for more, but I declined. I could not show more than the 50 seconds that I already showed...
