Je m’appelle… Pinochet. 22 Sept 2009.
Dog? Dictator? You decide… This is one of my fishing buddies from the Big Wood river in Ketchum, ID. He appeared out of nowhere. He barked. He swam. He got an assist on a 13″ trout. He told bust-a-gut jokes. You know how boring casting can get, right? The bottom snap is the front doorContinue reading “Je m’appelle… Pinochet. 22 Sept 2009.”

Larry Madaras. Feature Film Editor. 4 Sept 2009.
Hey Ed, The technique of showing an action oriented clip from near the end of a movie at the beginning has a long history. Sometimes it’s planned, often it isn’t and is implemented to pump a movie that isn’t working. The basic idea is to increase “the jeopardy” that the audience feels for the bulkContinue reading “Larry Madaras. Feature Film Editor. 4 Sept 2009.”

A number of ©Digital Heaven plugs were used in the editing of “chasing KEINO”. Not the least of which being the ©DH Subtitles plug. I was only advised of it after having re-subtitled “KEINO” for the third time. I highly recommend it – after having torn all of the hair from my head after theContinue reading “vaughan+studio featured on UK Finalcutters Website. 30 Aug 2009.”

Queensborough Bridge, NYC. 31 Jul 2009.
We used QbB as a test location for a “work-in-progress”, to see if we could capture what the script encapsulates, visually. We set-up at 6:30AM to avoid on bridge foot traffic but also to shoot in the intense morning light that bathed the structure. We filmed with a ©RED One fitted with a ©RED PrimeContinue reading “Queensborough Bridge, NYC. 31 Jul 2009.”

I met Moses Kororia this summer in Santa Fe whilst filming “chasing KEINO”. He was one in a family of 13 children in foster care to Kenyan parents.
