Rose Theater photo by Rob Lee on flickr Just finished work for a stage act to kick off an executive summit for Turner Networks that took place in the Rose Theater at Lincoln Center Jazz in New York City. It was a ton of action packed into a time span of less than 3 minutes […]

First Vancouver Trip
May 10th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Personal
I was extremely excited to finally get out to Vancouver for the first time, not just to attend GDC Canada for GameDev.net, but to visit the city itself. The region around Vancouver is very beautiful in my opinion with all the evergreens and mountains and snow-capped peaks. Seeing it during the Winter Olympics only bolstered […]

Crap. (and maybe another crap) So the first crap comes from the 7-Eleven where I want to shoot the opening of my short fight film. I was there last year to shoot some footage with a friend and the guy behind the counter was totally cool with it. Because of troubles with my bike shortly […]
First fight scene – angles worked out
August 13th, 2008 · No Comments · Production
Tonight Dizzle and I, with the help of our friend Dallas as a stand-in, worked through the choreography on camera as we would shoot it for the final movie. Before this, every time we did the choreography before a camera it was for posterity, now we were doing it as if we were filming for […]
First fight scene locked down
August 5th, 2008 · No Comments · Production, Stuntwork
Well well, another two hours of rehearsal this past Monday night and Dizzle and I are feeling very very good about the opening fight scene. I added in a brief new segment of me bolting to the door, only to find that it locked after I entered and so I have no choice but to […]
Guitar Hero pwnage

So tonight I was supposed to run through the fight scene with Dizzle and prep it for a reference filming, however Mack wanted to swing by in the afternoon so I could help him with a computer problem. He ended up picking up Dizzle (who’s car is still in the shop) and bringing him along. […]

First fight scene completed
July 29th, 2008 · No Comments · Production, Stuntwork
After roughly 5 hours of choreography and rehearsal evenly spread over tonight and last Friday night, my partner and I have completed the fight moves for the first fight scene of the movie. It’s roughly 60 movies long, but those are combined moves. If you count each of our individual moves that number immediately doubles, […]
Back to being an Action Star
July 26th, 2008 · No Comments · Stuntwork
Last year, in my original journal over at GDNet, I mentioned that I was working on a fight video with my friends. After spending one night shooting the opening scene, my bike’s tail lights went out completely and by the time I was able to order new ones the weather had gotten too cold to […]

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll We armored up and fought again, which was cool since we haven’t done that in a while. Two people forgot their armor tho, which sucked. One of them challeneged me to a match and so I neglected to put on my helmet since it was hot out and since he didn’t […]

The result of 3 years procrastination
March 5th, 2010 · No Comments · Production, Stuntwork
So for the past three years (or so) my stunt buddy Dizzle and I have been working together on and off to film a short action movie. A lot of the starting and stopping was due to the fact that Dizzle was tied to another production (still is, actually) during the majority of the time […]
