House Episode Shot Entirely on DSLR April 13, 2010

According to engadget the Canon EOS 5D MkII was used to shoot the entire season finale episode of my favorite TV show: House. Director Greg Yaitanes talked about cinematographer (and my personal hero) Gale Tattersall and the crew’s use of the DSLR on Twitter. All I know is I’m glad I was able to go [...]

Star Wars Episode 2 Review Out April 4, 2010

Red Letter Media’s epic feature-length video review is now available! It is, in a word: awesome. In the words of fictional reviewer Harry Plinkett: “When you suck out the humanity from the films and replace it with the ease of digital film-making, well, it just sucks.” So true. Go to their website to check it [...]

House Speed Dating March 18, 2010

From recent House episode “Private Lives”: House, Wilson and Chase go speed dating. Hilarity ensues. I am continually impressed at the cinematic quality of this show (it’s my favorite since Ronald D. Moore’s Battlestar Galactica). Gale Tattersall’s cinematography deserves kudos and ASC recognition, and Amy Fleming’s editing is ballsy (yeah, I know: irony). Great show, [...]

Black Hole March 17, 2010

This week’s House episode had a cool little open with some sweet, sweet “powers of 10″ flying-through-the-universe visual effects. Check it out. Note the clever sound design: at the end, the final chord of the theme song is played backwards. House is on FOX Network Monday nights at 8pm EST. Get the Flash Player to [...]

New Camera! March 8, 2010

I haven’t purchased a digital SLR since my 20D in early 2006. This past Saturday I made the 30 minute trip to Harlingen to pick up the only Canon EOS 550D (Rebel T2i) in the area. I’m going to shoot my next short film with it. It’s awesome. Check out this video clip I shot [...]

Me in "The Battle" November 6, 2009

I had no idea “The Battle: Cinco de Mayo” had it’s own little website. While going through the production stills (most was unit photography I did) I came across this screenshot of the actual scene where I appear. The movie was supposedly released in September but I can’t find it anywhere.

House September 22, 2009

The two hour season premiere of House aired last night on FOX but I just finished watching it on tape and it’s simply a perfect episode. This season will be amazing.

The Battle is finally "coming soon" August 19, 2009

I’ve written about The Battle before, and casually checking Laguna Production’s website, I finally found it listed! Check it out: this link will take you to the movie that I was in.

Star Trek Movie Villains July 13, 2009

I was contemplating this list out loud today at Edward so I figured I’d write it down here for posterity. So here is my list of personal favorite [major] villains from the Star Trek feature films, in order, from least to most favorite.

Wishing Tree July 9, 2009

This parody of Michael Jackson by Trey Parker on South Park is actually kind of touching in a mean sort of way. The Wishing Tree song from The Jeffersons episode seems to be a riff on Jackson’s single Childhood, however, but this version is not without its charm. I’ve taken it upon myself to learn [...]
