Dealt in Chicago
Making the rounds. Stayed in an AirBNB-type situation that was really great. Newly restored two-floor condo in a great neighborhood. Perfect weather as well, tricking me into wanting to live there. The cold was months away. Richard was performing a ‘one man show’ version of his act at a neat little theater and we also spent a day sightseeing with him and his wife, Kim. On a downer note, my Mom had a heart incident in Chicago the week before on a three day trip and was still stuck in a hospital while we were there.
South By So What
Another bloated, traffic-choking, corporate branding orgy has come and gone. While SXSW is a week where anyone with a boom pole and a pulse can be busy, I have vowed this one was my last. It is definitely one of the horsemen of this once fair cities apocalypse.
It’s Okay to be Smart
Dealt
Often I can’t talk much or post things about stuff in progress, but this doc is very public. It’s about the life of Richard Turner, a multi-talented ‘card mechanic’ who happens to be unable to see. We began shooting in November with a trip to Richard’s sisters place in Idaho. We recently shot several of his shows in Hollywood at the Magic Castle.
AT&T GigaPower Spot
2 day shoot for AT&T. It featured Robert Earl Keen, Andy Roddick and Dale Watson. Set the all-time record for utterances of ‘got it’.
Yours truly made it into the BTS.
American Daredevils
Did a couple of pickup days doing interviews with the Daredevil folk. A bad day at the office for them can get pretty dang bad.
C300 was the main camera.
People Food!
My good friend Jenny Goddard-Garcia wrote and directed this humorous short. We shot in Lockhart and Austin. As I love camping I chose to stay in Lockhart State Park one night versus a three hour round trip. My 8yr old had his first paid extra role on this.
Shot on the Sony F55.
