musings on my cinematic wanderings

Hot -n- Cheesy

Breathing … One project in the can … need to get cutting on it. Hot -n- Cheesy … how could we resist this little challenge from the folks over at Poptent. We came up with a concept a little out of the box so we’ll see how it flies. We’ll like it for sure. So much that we went cranked it up and notch and double dipped a photo shoot with the same characters and sets. I’ll flip up some of the takes hopefully next week (after Stacey wraps work on another set for another shoot …).

I actually owe a lot of footage from recent work trying to get it into some semblance of finished shape but have been pinned down by recent work. It’s a good problem. Snagged a couple of days doing some corporate … one on the shoulder for 14 hours … it’s a little sore. And poor Ozi’s been feeling the brunt getting tossed around a little. Seems like he’s been holding his own in it though and tomorrow’s a full daddy day to catch up.

Another photo shoot lined up for next week. Then into some serious post!

It’s been a busy couple of weeks at the ranch. Swooped in from Sundance to take care of a couple of gigs going through the studio. Finished prepping and then shot THE APPRAISAL by Stephanie Carwin. Have just set up casting for a video / photo shoot I’m planning in a week and a half. Found out our Doritos spot didn’t win a million bucks (one nut shot short), but the Bud DD spot did win over at poptent (yeah!). In the meantime, finally settled on the tattoo for my left arm and inked in the outline and some shading.

All of these need more explaining on their own … when’s that gonna happen. Cutting and coloring first.
