19 Mar Throwback Thursday: SXSW 2012
Well SXSW 2015 is going on this week, so seemed fitting to share some interviews we did back in 2012. Check them out below!
18 Mar A Desk A Day: Overcrowded Desk
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…
13 Mar Texas Film Awards 2015
James Crouch attended this years Texas Film Awards and took some photos. Maybe you’ll notice a few people that look familiar.
12 Mar Throwback Thursday: Where there’s smoke there’s Jonny
On the set of the Doritos shoot we needed a magical smoke plum to transform a rather sleazy looking guy(played by Adam Duncan) into a more attractive man with Doritos shorts(also played by Adam.) In this gif you can see how Jonny Greenwald got the effect of a decent stream of fog, as opposed to the rather weak puffs the fog machine put out on it’s own. Basically a bag was filmed up with the fog then released all at once.
11 Mar A Desk A Day: Holding down the Fort
Here is Kellie Penna’s current workspace where she discusses shoots and editing notes with Christine who is currently out of town(as you saw last week.) This is her current intern, Casey Jones, who tends to distract from work more than help.
05 Mar Throwback Thursday: All Smiles
One of the most entertaining times working on the set of Funemployment was when we got to take over The Hideout Theater to serve as a backdrop for a scene. Lots of laughs were had during the filming of this scene as Matthew Broussard(pictured below) was allowed to do some improv for the cast and crew.
04 Mar A Desk A Day: Seat Tray
Today’s very first image ever for A Desk A Day comes from Christine Chen. She took this image while on a flight to Mumbai, where even in the air she was working away editing a Moth to Flame project. Come back next week for another image from the field.
26 Feb Throwback Thursday: Making Art
A Bird’s Nest required the creation of a hideaway in the forest that appeared to be created by found objects. Which included a doll that appeared to have gone through quite a traumatic experience before being used as decoration. As you can see in the gif director Christine Chen made sure the doll had an authentic antiqued look to it.
