Machination

Machination - A movie review

A story of love lost, revenge found, but everybody dies! You may think you've seen films like "Machination" time and time over but critics aren't calling it "something else" for no reason. It has already been appraised by RAW and now entrance into the 2014 Twin Cities Film Festival proves Machination is a special one of a kind! It won't take you long to find out why... 

I had the privlage of working along side many talented filmakers and actors in bringing this film to life! As Assistant Director and Associate Producer I was able to watch the film unfold in a very indepth way. Although it's normally hard to say what sets a mediocre project apart from a great one, in the case of Machination the difference is crystal clear. Unbound by conventional filmmaking techniques and ideas Machination hits the ground running, and if you're not buckled up and ready to take it on you may very well end up at the finish line wondering what exactly just happened. It's a very bold "no BS" approach to storytelling that we don't get enough of. You have to be sharp, you have to be involved, and you cannot let this half hour simply glide past you. You've got to live the story with these characters while you can! But don't worry, simply put Machination is a roller coaster of hormones and death! And these wonderful actors bring an ugly message fully to life by providing performances that demand attention through suspense, tension, and bad choices.

With Machination you do not get a chance to "know" these charcaters in the common sense because you ALREADY know them before going into it. These charaters are you, me, and those we love dearest. And also those who rip out our hearts to paint a grim, bloody picture of what can happen when people are really pissed off!

It's a message to write home about, something you won't forget anytime soon, and it's coming to a theatre near you!

 

See the trailer now then go watch this film at 8:45PM TONIGHT to find out for yourself what all the blood is about! Please go to TCFF's website to check pricing and availability.

All Natural Digital Artistry

All Natural

As an actor living in LA I know just living here is tough. And getting a professional start on your career without a up-to-date photo makes the battle even tougher. Even worse, affording quality pictures can be impossible forcing you to put your goals on hold indefinitely... 

That's not what you moved all the way to Hollywood for, is it?

Of course not! Great news for artists in the greater Los Angeles area; as of today we are now offering photo sessions as low as $20 a look!

Go ahead, pinch yourself!

You can't get this type of opportunity just anywhere, so I invite you to view our Gallery and see if All Natural Artistry is right for you!

You can send us an Order Form today right here. Payment required before photos are taken or distributed. We're also offering $35 for 2 looks & $45 for 3 looks. Thank you for your consideration!

 

 

 

 

Loch Ness

I sure started Spring off the right way, the hardcore metal-folk way that is Loch Ness- the Web Series! And, boy... What a wonderful all-night-er of filming it was!    

With multiple episodes to be covered in just one week, multiple directors, and a full house as our set it was a challenge, but with such great cast and crew the shoot went professionally pleasant throughout the hours of the night.  I enjoyed meeting so many talented filmmakers, most of them from the Midwest. 

If you'd like a preview feel free to take a look at the 1st night's production photos via link below.

With the cast of Loch Ness, Josh Saleh and Tom Spath

In other news, a show I back-grounded for in last fall in Minnesota, Dear White People, is being pick up by Lionsgate! Well, that's all for now, thank you for your continued support!
