First steps in making my first short film…sending out inquiries to actors.
Got the storyboards. Got the script. Got our leads.
Now just need locations, costumes, and the rest of our cohorts.

First day filming tomorrow. Horror movie, baby!

Lil behind the scenes for next episode of Under this Roof.
A mild equipment upgrade to our normal phone and lav mic setup
I should’ve documented more but at least I got the dog.

Shot list, notes, script w/ character breakdowns, extreme circumstances and all that
Day before check list: Need wine.

Gluttonous Danny DeVito, farther by thy name. Give us courage, those that venture into the realm of absurdity.

Finding secluded areas to film fictionalized kidnappings is harder than it seems…

For the most part I was placed in a bathroom with the camera set on a mini tripod on the floor.
We wanted the character’s head to go where it went.
Messed with color in the edit

My twelve year old computer sounds like a jet engine when trying to edit…
Working with an outdated DaVinci Resolve

Still looks good tho..

Jude shooting a fuckin’ intimate scene in his car
Filmmaking takes just an actor and a camera. Taken to the extreme. Where’s this guy’s Grammy, come on.

improv scene with basically a solitary camera setup. The ol' phantom DP, Tripod Deakins?

script an' stills for my character Charles's intro vignette,
wordless for the most part. Beautiful twilight lit George Town, train tracks, Bukowski-esque, industrial
