Pre-Pro







In order for me and everyone to be on the same page, I took stills from "The Girlfriend Experience" to use as examples of what I am looking for in shots, as far as American Gumbo. I can't draw for shit, so this is how I usually have to due it. It's more fun, because not only do I use the stills as examples, but it also allows me to study composition and color. Here are the pics, so let me know what you think...

Moby's 'Wait For Me' Music Video




I just entered this competition yesterday for Moby's new video. I am really proud of what I've submitted, and love the way the video is portrayed from my perspective. I am now in the process of whoring myself out so that I can get votes and win the contest, so I can get a real camera and film 'American Gumbo', or what ever other film I want to make whenever I want to make it (it's called freedom, and I don't have it right now). So, please vote for the video, and spread the word...

'A little roux...'




I've started the editing process by editing the first part of the open. I'm not guaranteeing that this will be exactly how I'll open the film, but this is the general idea. It involves a conversation me, Mike Kenny, and Remi at The Balcony on Magazine about porn. As I stated before, I may switch it up as far as tone, but that will be dictated by the rest of what we shoot. So... that's the roux...
