Before I went to Tokyo last month, I had never shot CineStill800.
I plan to shoot more of it. I'll post some
more this week.

Sometimes it rains in LA.

Sometimes you discover that your film back has light leaks.

I brought out the big boi to try and get that iconic "LA with snowy mountains in the background" but the weather wasn't done quite yet. It looked interesting so I still blasted a roll. Might try again tomorrow.

This is a good writeup about it, you can get it from photographer's formulary.

I like it because it stays stable for a year once mixed and the results I've had so far are really quite nice.

Dear Bluesky #IndieFilm people:

I'd love to see you at the premiere of The Hemingway on Feb 22 or 23 in LA at the #SlamdanceFilmFestival

Tix can be purchased for the Unstoppable short film block here if you don't want to buy a pass to the whole shebang.

Finally getting my home-processed Pyrocat HD thing going. Still lots to dial in, but an OK start.

got myself some pyrocat-hd, and the boy asked "so what, are you trying to be Walter White?" and i said "no, more like Minor White" and he didn't get it.

OK so big news: the short film that I made this past year with my long time collaborator Patrick O'Brien just got accepted to Slamdance in the "Unstoppable" category.

I can't wait to show the whole thing, but for now here's a trailer.

Switching from Skate to Portrait. Because I was a busy person over the weekend, here's a 2-fer from a crazy windless video shoot at the Sultan Sea as a fire raged up in Big Bear. #oneshoteveryday

dude you just need to figure out which one is the "DROP THE BASS" button and then you can go on stage and be attacked by bees and make your fortune.
