My friend Becka asked me if I could help film the Big Reds and Bubbles event, hosted by the Wine and Food Foundation of Texas. The moment she said free food from the best chefs in Austin and free wine, I said of course. It was a beautiful event with booths from different restaurants in Austin and over 100 different types of wines and champagnes. I ate way too much. The event took place at The Driskell Hotel and was packed the entire night. My favorite food item of the night was definitely the crab cakes made by Truluck’s. I…

Moth to Flame and coloredlion.com teamed together to capture Nick and Emily’s beautiful wedding. Nick and Emily approached my friend Daran Herrman from Coloredlion.com to capture their wedding in October 2011. Daran had done an amazing job with their engagement photos that they wanted to work with him again. Because Daran knows what’s good for him (just kidding), he contacted Moth to Flame to do the video portion. Daran and I filmed the entire day starting from 11 am to 2 am at night, capturing moments with the groomsmen and the bridesmaids getting ready, to the ceremony, and the party….

  Everyone in Texas goes to HEB! HEB picked Moth to Flame to do a spec! HEB picked Moth to Flame as one of the 20 filmmakers to shoot a spec for Web and TV usage, targeting Texas moms, showcasing some of their products. I thought to myself, what better way to showcase HEB’s food than to film a real Texas family having a good time? I immediately contacted my friend Emily Albino, whose entire family uses HEB and are born and raised in Texas. Moth to Flame recently shot Emily’s wedding video with Coloredlion.com. Make sure to also check…

Moth to Flame decided to try their luck and enter not just one, but four separate spec commercials to the 2011 Doritos Crash the Superbowl Contest. Check out our entries and the making of video! I have been wanting to make a Doritos commercial ever since I saw the ones from 2010. They are so fun and clever. This year I came up with four different subjects. Each of these subjects were refined and perfected after bouncing off the ideas to several key members: Harold Williams, Graham Smith, Tom Beagles, and Nicholas Hasandras. Be sure to check out each of…

Every semester it feels like my workload keeps increasing exponentially. The one word I need to keep continuing to learn how to use is "No." Fortunately, after being asked to help out with the 2011 Mr. McCombs pageant, I am glad that I did not say no to this opportunity. It was a big rush. Only a few hours, sometimes, just 30 minutes to film something that hopefully would be funny or compelling. Carlos Dinkins, one of my favorite actors and friends (because of his ability to deliver in a shameless matter) said yes immediately of course... then David Isquick,...
