Part of the inner circle! 

Getting to shoot footage of a band while they are performing on stage is a total high. As it turns out, 2nd AC can sometimes mean front row seats to awesome gigs. #2ndAClife 

In many ways it was difficult for me to watch the film from a technical point of view. All of the stylistic elements were so engaging that it became easy to lose myself in the experience.

Labyrinth of Lies (2014)

This film was both insightful & heartbreaking, and yet aesthetically pleasing to watch. I loved every minute of it!

A few weeks ago I visited the Stanley Kubrick Exhibit at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in downtown San Francisco. I must confess that I didn’t know much about Kubrick’s work going in, which is why I decided to take this opportunity to finally dig deep into the work and life of this legendary filmmaker. Besides, what better way to learn about someone than by walking through a museum floor dedicated solely to their life’s work?

I’d like to give a shout out to the six AAU students who helped create this wonderful short VR film titled Henry (2015) by former Pixar animator, Ramiro Lopez Dau. It’s so exciting to know that people from the Academy are working with such talented artists in the motion picture industry. 

I wish you all the best on your bright futures and congratulations on your win!

Two weeks ago I had the pleasure of working as 2nd AC on this music promo shoot for the local SF musician Chris Clouse.
