When the roses on a particular bush just aren’t photogenic enough.
Why is it that every time I make some blanket statement such as “condor nights are usually uneventful”, I’m proven so very, very wrong?
As of late, condor duty has been anything but uneventful.
This last time, I was nowhere near any old, rotting bee-filled facades, plus I was full stick (meaning the condor was at maximum [...]
Normally, being the guy up in the condor with the BFL (big fucking light) is fairly uneventful.
Raise platform up, set light(s) at gaffer’s direction, kill time until wrap.
Friday night, however, was different.
One of the lights must have been aimed at a hive somewhere in the New York Street facades because a few minutes after I [...]
Due to repeated fillings, falling outs and re-fillings, a couple of my back teeth are mostly filling material and not so much tooth anymore.
This, it turns out, is a good thing. Even though I chewed a chunk of filling off, no actual tooth surface was exposed, so the dentist was able to repair the entire [...]

Inserts are those little extreme close up shots that you probably never even notice when you watch a movie or a TV show. A hand holding a ticket, a piece of paper, a computer monitor, keys going into a lock.
Inserts aren’t shot at the same time as the rest of the scene, and the show’s [...]
This morning, as I was finishing my coffee and getting ready to go to the gym, I heard a bloodcurdling scream come from the back yard.
The building’s new owner decided that what the back patio really needed was some trees, and the guys who were doing the digging ran across a skeleton.
Once everyone had calmed [...]
Although I really wanted to grab the camera, hop in the car and go somewhere scenic and cooler than LA (like up to the redwoods), since unnecessary driving is no longer on the agenda around here I decided to use my holiday weekend to catch up on some of the around-the-house type stuff I’ve been [...]
