This is a short film I shot for my friend Safar Shakeyev who I have worked with many times before. It was a project for his directing class at Chapman University and was shot during an afternoon a few Saturdays ago with a small crew of friends. The end result is above and credits are [...]
A big congratulations to my friend Almog Avidan Antonir for his film’s acceptance into the National Film Festival for Talented Youth (NFFTY) 2012! I shot this film a few months ago with Almog and had a great time with it. The original blog post is below as well as the film. NFFTY is a great festival [...]
This past January I was lucky enough to participate in a course here at Chapman that was equally enjoyable, educational and intense. The course was Trans-Cultural Documentary where we planned, produced, shot, edited, and delivered five short documentaries during the span of our three week class.

Paris marks the close of our family trip to Europe. With both our long vacation coming to an end and our patience with each other running short Paris in many ways was bitter sweet. It was by far the shortest stay of any city we visited about 36 hours total. Regardless we still managed to [...]
It’s been a while since posting anything so I thought I would share a little bit of what has been keeping me busy besides school work. First off I went to take photos and video for my good friend Jack Franicevich and the band he plays in while they where practicing at a church here in Orange. [...]
