The Rocket Brothers shoot was awesome, mostly because it started in the afternoon (which is always awesome) and ended on time (also awesome.) Just kidding… What made it awesome was the people, cast and crew. The band was the nicest bunch of folks I’d met in awhile, and the crew was in high spirits like usual.
I just recently got done working on a little short that you might have seen. I figured today I’d share with you some photos of the star of this short. A little advice if you want to take photos of cats(or animals in general), make sure to use a burst mode while taking pictures.
In preparation for A Bird’s Nest showing up on Shorts HD Christine and Adam had to submit a little video introduction. It appears they had a bit of fun with it, maybe a little too much fun…you be the judge and watch the video below.
My first day on the set of Funemployment I took this little panoramic photo(make sure to click on it to see the large image) of everyone that worked that day. I believe I took this after we had shot quite a bit with the crane and Christine was just reviewing the footage to make sure we’d captured what she wanted.
James Crouch has a desk that is set up to stand up while doing computer work. Most recently he was scrubbing footage he shot from SXSW for Do512. Below is the desk in all it’s stand up glory.
Anyone who knows me, knows that I don’t believe in accidents. I’m a firm believer of the rule, “everything happens for a reason.” If you go through a breakup, there’s a reason, if you get fired from your job, there’s a reason, if you bump into one of your kindergarten classmates from 40 years ago, there’s a reason…..you get the idea.
AAAAAhhhhh…….my workspace. Seeing someone’s desk in my mind is akin to seeing the inside of the trunk of a car; unique to each owner. Here are the highlights of mine. Mac desktop, calendar, notebook, lamp, and whatever I’m working on at the time. I like to keep my desk pretty clean and neat, just makes me work better. There’s the spider I created for the Valentine’s Day animation laying next to my keyboard. I want to frame him because he turned out so well but have yet to buy a tiny frame. His legs pop off pretty easily too…
On Monday Christine, Kellie, and myself went through all the stuff Christine has accumulated since the creation of Moth to Flame. This photo was taken when we took a break to have dinner among all the equipment. We spent a decent amount of time just putting the Moth to Flame name on items. After long days on sets you can forget if extension cords and chargers are your’s or belong to the location owner. Also when the majority of your equipment is black it tends to blend in with other people’s equipment that also tends to be black. The rest…
Well SXSW 2015 is going on this week, so seemed fitting to share some interviews we did back in 2012. Check them out below!
Well there it is…my desk. I’ve mostly been doing blog work lately using wordpress to get it all setup and scheduled. A little rundown of what’s in the picture. Those big black speakers I use for music production, though they do come in handy when editing video. Also it’s nice to listen to music on good speakers. Reading is important to me so I always have a few books nearby. That orange halloween cup contains a variety of pens and pencils, paint brushes, tide to go pen(I spill things often), a pair or two of scissors, and some other random…
