I Destroy

    This past week I shot Anastasia Baker’s new film, Destroy. It wasn’t the first time I shot with the Canon T2i, but it was the first time i used it for a whole film. We shot on the 11th, 12th, and 14th, in Hackensack and Tenafly, NJ. It was the first documented use of the now infamous “penny-rig”. The screw from the Varizoom shoulder mount wouldn’t fit on the T2i so we used a penny on each side of the base plate to add distance so the screw would be tighter sooner. Ghetto indeed. We also managed to rig a 4-bank KinoFlo light on the Fisher Dolly. I literally left to go get a cleaning cloth two blocks away, came back, and one of the grips, Joe, had rigged it together with a gobo head and some gaff tape. That was in the beginning of what would be a near 20-hour day. Gotta love filmmaking...

    Today is the first day of shooting for my new film, Downward, staring Alex Hernandez and Morgan Vasquez. It’ll be a quick night tonight but tomorrow is going to be stressful. I’m hoping that once it’s done I can throw it in a quick festival circuit and then post it up on the site once it’s had it’s rounds.

    For now I’m sipping tea in the video room in my high school, and the cup o noodles I have in my bag is calling my name.


*UPDATE*

    I’m finally back at the apartment. Everything went well and my actors and crew were great. I’ll post pictures up soon but for now I need some sleep, 11AM start tomorrow... or, well, today.
