October has been one of the busiest months for me in the past year, which is an excellent thing; I’m certainly not one to complain! It’s been a fantastic month, but I didn’t make enough time to post an update about Dark Cotton, plus more still frames from our second and third shoot days! Thanks for your patience and I hope you find the still frames well worth the wait.

On Saturday, August 1, we had our first shoot day (of three) for the production of our next short film Dark Cotton. The day was fantastic, though we had a late start and a couple unexpected coordination snaffu’s – the big one being our production coordinator getting a nail in one of her car’s tires while running to the local hardware store to get a couple high-powered spotlight torches. Outside of the obvious, how/why do you think we used them?

Recently my filmmaker-friend Mike Shum and I began shooting interviews for his documentary on college admission. The working title for the film is “Am I Good Enough?” The angle for the film is focused more from the admission counselors’ point-of-view rather than just high school juniors and seniors who are in the middle of the admission process. Mike is the writer, director and producer, and I’m his D.P. for the project. As we move forward with shooting I’ll post more stills, maybe even some clips.
For those of you who are production inclined and curious about gear – we’re running 2 DVX100B’s (shooting 30p), Sennheiser G2 wireless lav and a Lowell tungsten kit (Pro lights) for interviews.
These stills are from the first interview with an admission counselor at Colorado College. These are from the raw footage – no color grading.
