I’ve been working with the Hudson Spider Mozzie and really enjoying it. A new key light for my business, and one that is very versatile. Many light modifier choices, AC/DC power options, adjustable output and super compact while transporting. Loving this! πŸŽ₯

Cooke S4 35mm! Loving this super dependable lens. I have noticed that content looks super real and true to life. It’s also sharp, but doesn’t feel clinical. A cinematic look, yet a true workhorse. πŸ‘πŸ“Έ

A spot created for Paragon and about diabetes education and awareness. It’s rewarding to create content about people who overcome their challenges and are willing to share their story to educate others. Love my job! πŸŽ₯❀️

Pre-lighting our interview with an old school Kino 4-bank and recording with Red Gemini and Angenieux DPs. Loving the natural fall-off of these lenses, warm look and pleasing skin tones. Wish they were T2, and I do find them to be a bit slow at T2.8. However, such a beautiful look for the final product and having a matched pair zooms has allowed for a faster pace on set. There will always be pros and cons. πŸŽ₯πŸ™‚

Directing projects with true impact is rewarding to say the least. I was asked to produce Linda's story, a woman who nearly died from a medical complication. Linda learned to walk again, and in this project our team documented her walking for the first time on uneven ground. A moment shared with her husband. Captured with Red Dragon, Zeiss and Sigma Art.

New monitor! Red DSMC2 Ultra-Bright 7". Wow, love this. πŸ™‚ A huge upgrade from the 4.7 inch. Not just the size, but I can now easily see outdoors in the sun. A much needed investment, one I wish a made sooner. πŸŽ₯

A recent project highlighting Doris who had a successful physical comeback. "It can be done, and it was done", Doris said. Filmed on Red Gemini and Angenieux DP's, combined tools that I am enjoying. Loving the warmth of this glass, a sharp but not clinical look, with nice pleasing fall off. Loving the investment with Angenieux. πŸŽ₯πŸ™‚

A portion of a recent project I helped direct about a woman who suffered from a SCAD heart attack. A story created to bring awareness to others about Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection. Filmed on Sony Alpha, Red Dragon and Zeiss lenses.
