A work in progress.  Shooting 10,000 frames of time-lapse every single day on my property.  Seeing life happen on a different scale.  Living paintings of sorts.

I was a camera operator on this one and made some timelapse films for Jonathan and Neil. It was a wonderful premiere at TIFF in 2011. Jonathan is a great director. He let me do whatever I wanted to.

We made it one afternoon.  No script.

I grew up around there too, so I did all the early morning footage driving around all my old haunts.

The little film above is of Neil presenting Lincvolt at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, Fall 2010.  I made it with Neil and Will over at Shakey Pictures
