SITE REDESIGN 5/1/2012

I’m doing an overhaul of the site, trying to make it easier to get to the specific type of content you are looking for (since I have so many areas ranging from photography, film and music).

I appreciate your patience while I work on this.

I’m also traveling quite a bit, working on a feature film, and taking care of my usual photography clients, so keep that in mind when trying to get in touch.

I’ll also be making an appearance at Texas Frightmare Weekend to promote Spirit Camp and my upcoming feature Deep Terror… if you are in Dallas for the event, drop by and say hello.

SUBTITLES FINAL CUT PRO

I just finished subtitling the opening scene to Deep Terror using Final Cut. The entire scene was shot in Russian, and this was the first time I used final cut for subtitling. After FX is usually my choice for text and motion graphics, but titling directly is simpler.

We shot on Sunday, and 4 days later, picture is essentially locked, complete with sound design scoring and FX for the opening scene.

Now I’m on to opening title design….

DEEP TERROR: UPDATE

Awsome shoot yesterday with Deke Anderson and Julitta Pourciau! We filmed the opening scene of the movie entirely in Russian. So great to work with a pro like Deke as the Russian submarine captain. Deke commanded the screen like a true movie star with a riveting, nuanced performance.

You may recognize Deke from Green Lantern, Army of Darkness, one of the voices in Halo Legends, or as one of Houston’s beloved acting coaches at his Next Level Acting Studio.

Julitta was great as the X.O., going head to head with the maniacal Captain.  The US NAVY recently allowed women to serve on submarines, and the decision has proved to be highly controversial.  I’m not sure if the Russian Navy allows women to serve on submarines, but I thought I’d take some creative license and cast a woman as the Russian Executive Officer. The onscreen tension between the two is palpable, as the submarine is in a dire situation.

Many thanks to Deke and Julitta, along with John Lansch and Kelly Burns behind the scenes to make yet another outstanding segment to this film!
