CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL
OUR TALENTED WINNERS!

The light around us tells our story.

I've recently discovered that my purpose in the pursuit of film is to communicate with people further. To connect with people who share similar perspectives on a level that I can't reach otherwise. This piece is something I'm passionate about, something that moves me with a need to call out to others. My hopes are that this in some way ignites a fire inside you, and you run after something you love. Music: A. Taylor - Treeline At Night | Licensed through Musicbed Colorgrade with FilmConvert

In June, I dropped Courtney off at the airport, I was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say to let her know I didn't want to forget about her. All I could muster was, "See you soon." A month later I caved and bought a plane ticket to Reno. So here we are.

Les écuries du Mas Long is a commercial film about stables in the south of France.

I recently went on solo adventure to India (from September 08-13, 2016) initially full of fears. India has always been an elusive dream for me because it paints a picture of chaos and danger to any ordinary traveler. One day, I just woke up realizing I wanted to finally visit the destination probably on top of my bucket list, despite my friends turning down my invitation to backpack to India with me. So here's a video that summarizes my fears, my newfound joys, and my little adventure to a destination I fell in love with and will visit over and over again. Only because, in India - I finally found my answer: of what it means to travel alone. My India itinerary included: Delhi, Agra, Jaipur and Udaipur.

Try to imagine that one thing you've always dreamt of owning. For my wife that thing... was a Red Mini. Here's a very short film documenting that very moment...Enjoy. Graded with Film Convert - FJ Velv 100 Music: "Eternal Hope" by Kevin MacLeod

This music video was created to promote water-saving technologies used in the two local communities in Kazakhstan. The language of the video is Russian. The text on the screen is informing the audience about the impact that usage of water saving technologies has on the life of people that live in the Kostanay city and the vilage Arnasay. The song was written and performed by my team of musicians in order to make this video to be more emotional. While color grading I decided to use several film stocks instead of only one. Particularly, I used FJ H160s Pro, FJ H400 Pro, and KD 5207 Vis3 for the Sony footage of the kids singing in school.

The Land I Was Born On: “When you call yourself an Indian or a Muslim or a Christian or a European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence. So a man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system; he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind.” - Jiddu Krishnamurti Shot in Dharavi, Mumbai - one of the largest slums in the world by Composer / Film Maker Niraj Chag.

An early labour of love project completed over 8x weekends for Sydney post-rock band Sleepmakewaves. I met Alex from SMW at a Brisbane gig and from there we collaborated to make this simple story about a frustrated scientist converting his thoughts into reality. Building a machine that would allow him to travel as a mysterious energy. Filmed in my old tool shed out in the sticks and out and around the area - this project was completed over 8x weekends with over 30+ visual effects shots.

This was a fun project filmed in my home garage, filmed all on black with some very inexpensive light set-ups. Initially this music video was going to be very different - black & white with cymatic footage I’d filmed the day after comped and overlaid. Playing around with the initial cymatic footage i’d filmed for their band photo i’d found a more interesting creative using simple backwards light particles which for the band conveyed the idea of ‘letting go to begin again’. With only 2x weeks and 80+ effects shots this was a real challenge for just one person but it wouldn’t of looked as great without filmconvert!

A music video I shot for the fantastic italian swing band "Musica da Ripostiglio" ("Closet Music", because, as they say 'we feel "Chamber Music" would be excessive'). It starts with a little short, then become a surreal music video full of great actors: Paolo Sassanelli, Ernesto Lama, Giovanni Esposito, Marit Nissen, Gaia Bassi, Sergio Del Prete, Ivano Schiavi, Francesco Rivieccio, Germano Ciaravola, La Tarantina... Shot run and gun in 5 hours in Naples.

This story was based on modelling and photography websites that act as hunting grounds for predators looking to take advantage of models who believe they are advancing career, when they are really entering a terrible situation. Research for this video was based on articles found at mayhem-model.com

Last Fall, on a crisp autumn evening in Oct, I had the pleasure of capturing Meghan & Matthew Rhoades wedding at Oxon Hill Manor in Maryland. Working alongside talented photog, Kate Palker, and her great stable of shooters from Pearly Kate Photography, I was able to record every milestone of the big day. Running the show was Tori from Candy + Company, making sure the whole event came together perfectly. Last but not least, Meghan and Matthew's friends and family came out in full force to support their loved ones. And the trailer above is mere snapshot of the love and affection that went into making such a lovely day possible.

My grand-aunt Mimi asked if I could help her share the story of her life. Something like this is impossible to give justice in an 8 minute piece, but all I can hope is that the enormous amount of life that she had in her soul is apparent to all of those who watch this. I was fortunate to be able to finish the film and travel back to Washington in early July to show the film to Mimi at her beloved cabin on Whidbey Island. Unfortunately, a little over a month later Mimi had a sudden illness followed by a stroke with several complications, she passed away on September 26th, 2016. In this moment, Mimi would prefer us celebrate her life, rather than be saddened by her death. So, here's to Mimi! I hope this film encourages those who see it to take a moment and capture a story from one of their elders on whatever media is available. The worth of these stories is invaluable and life can take sudden, unexpected turns. Love you Mimi.
