My background in video production started senior year of high school where I produced the morning televised announcements. I made my first movie that year for Project XL, "Wondering Mind..." I have since been involved in several student short films. I produced/directed a package for Connections, "Magic Drew". My most recent project was the a webisode series "Evenly Odd." I was the DP for the series. Most of my experience has been lighting and camera work. I have experience with several different cameras, lighting kits, and various video equipment. I try to know about as many different things as possible, because there is nothing you can learn that will hurt you in the business.
I am the Director of Photography for "Free Wall".
( This is NOT a picture of me)This job carries a lot of responsibility. I am in charge of making sure our video image looks the best it can. That includes: working with the Director to find out what kind of shot they want, having the camera crew put the camera where it needs to be to get the shot, framing up the shot until it looks good compositionally, then coordinating with the lighting crew so we get lights where we need them to create the mood and feel of every shot, making sure each shot has lighting and visual continuity. I guess the quick way of saying that would be, the Director tells me what he wants and I figure out how to get it.
Ok, thats long enough.
