Television
Fuck no...well only if it is anything with deadly viral outbreaks.
I make movies and music videos with Guerrillamonster Films.
Some unpopular films include The Sore Losers and Superstarlet A.D. I've a list of other works on IMDB. In addition, I'm a videographer for StarFruit Production.
I also freelance as a web designer. I can install and customize PHP/mySQL database content management systems. Contact me for project pricing details.
I recently shot my first narrative feature movie, called Cigarette Girl.
A STORY FOR QUITTERS
In the near future laws against smoking have increased to the point where you must live in a certain part of town called the SMOKING SECTION if want to smoke cigarettes. Once you have passed the line of demarcation you just know you've crossed the tracks because things get a little grimier, a little more industrial. The sky is a little blacker. The mood is heavier. Someone might get hurt.

Geez, I shot

I have the indiRAILSpro XVsm I bought from indifocus.com. It's pretty nice. Also What you were saying about shooting handheld... 90% of this short is handheld. haha I'm like you.. handheld is good for the chaotic, and more tense scenes... but not for EVERY SCENE. haha But mike wants to do this whole thing handheld.. so oh well.
just moving our min-convo out of the bulletin area...
That would be great if the museum did a cult movie night. Hopefully they would pull in a decent crowd to keep it going. Seems like most good things dont last too long around here, for one reason or another.
In any case, let me know if and when its available to view/purchase.
The status of KILLING SPREE is....Just waiting for the right lead actress to make her appearence...When that happens, we go into phase 2 of bringing it all together. :-)
I love that lens. Where can I buy one at? If you find a link to where I can buy one, throw it at me. Would like to have one. That Canon 50mm 1.4 ended up being a pretty nice lens.
Yeah...when we moved to Memphis a while ago...this was the first gig I had...background only...but I hung out with Rip for a few days and nights...he's an old friend from LA...crazy, drunken friend. We're shooting Mike's new short tomorrow...100 degrees here! Holy Shit!
So basically I have dust in my 135mm. Never shot with a lens with some dust, and do not have a camera to test if this is going to be a problem. Will dust show up on footage??? If so I need to buy a new one ASAP.
You can get Drank now?!?!?! Sweet. You're on the map. The other day, I saw a guy with a Drank promo tee. The back said "SLOW YOUR ROLL." It was killer. I wish I could get my hands on one and send it to you.
I rented a Letus ultimate and returned it after just half day. Given two points of focus to always maintain (the FD lens and the camera's focus) it was ridiculous. I'm actually renting a Canon 5d Mark II for my next short. I own the glass. I'm looking forward to it. Recording sound separately.
How did you like the SG? I've seen great results from it.
Good to see you again man! Been way to long, hopefully I will be up there more for this shoot coming up. We shall see, enjoy Pocket Full of Gold, and I will get you Euphoria soon. Make sure I get a copy of C.G. when it comes out!
Went GREAT! For the second showing we had over 300 people there. We will have to get together and watch em. I might be headed your way in June and going back to McCurdys for a 4 day stint. We will see. Good luck meeting your deadline...remeber Red Bull helps. LOL
Awww, come on now! You're funny...looking! Ba-dump-bump...ha ha ha! Couldn't resist the perfect set up. Josh really had a good time hangin with you and the fellas. What a great group of guys Slade is friends with! :]
