Batteries Included
I really lost track of time! It’s hard to believe that we’re well on our way through the summer. I’ve been working hard the past couple of weeks and haven’t had the chance to post a couple of updates. First and foremost, I have begun assisting on a narrative web series called Shepard. The series…

A Call to Band Together
Summer is here and the Pittsburgh filmmaking scene is in full bloom once again. A variety of new projects are popping up and the creative juices are flowing stronger than ever. It’s unfortunate that the Pennsylvania film tax credit cap and predetermined union crews cripple the aspiring local artists. Over the past year, I have…

A Week, In Review
Last week, I didn’t get a chance to post any new content, officially throwing off my blog schedule. That included both this blog and my multimedia story project over at paradisustransit.blogspot.com. This is my formal apology to those of you who have been checking in on my blogs. I know you’ve been visiting frequently (thanks…

Coming Full Circle
Over the past few months, I’ve been making minor changes to my blog, Flickr account, social networking accounts, and freelance resources, such as my Elance profile.

Overview: Canon EF Lens – 24-105mm 1:4L IS USM
Well, it’s been about a month since I purchased the Canon 24-105mm 1:4L lens, and I thought I’d take a moment to give a brief overview of experiences I’ve had with it. Although I am still work with a crop-sensor body camera (I see a full-sensor investment in the near future), I am very impressed…

Back and Here Again
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been compiling archived photos from 2011 and 2012. I’ve touched up the selected stills and posted them in my photo gallery. While most of them I have taken myself, I have to give part of the credit to Kevin Kukler for the ‘One Model Army’ stills (mostly because I…

Life in Stills
Recently, I’ve been diving into the most projects I’ve had in quite a while. It’s a great feeling to get away from the computer and get behind the camera again (DSLR or camcorder). Collaborative efforts with other artists have yielded phenomenal results, particularly in the field of photography. This is leading to new projects in the near…

In the Spin Cycle
Now that things are starting to pick up, there is more to report in recent days. Though professional projects have been slow to start, I’ve been busy with some personal projects. Like I mentioned before, I’ve been hard at work with some writing assignments. Two short scripts are near completion and ready for contest submissions.…
