About this user

I am currently teaching cinematography and editing at the Los Angeles Film Studies Center.

My wife and I are happily married and live in Pasadena, CA with a German Shepherd/Siberian Husky puppy named Maddie and a Labrador Retriever/Siberian Husky puppy named Sammy. We attend Eagle Rock Baptist Church and are actively involved in several groups there.

I've been doing After Effects animation for about seven years, and really enjoy it. I have yet to delve FULL FORCE into the world of 3D animation (maybe some day), but right now, After Effects is affording me the animation, creative outlet I need.

I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching at the LAFSC for the past three years, and when the occasional animation freelance gig comes up, I take it... However, I am currently working hard to move out of the world of post production and return back to my first love -- SCREENWRITING and DIRECTING.

I recently completed principal photography on my first feature film and am currently stuck in post-production hell. I never intended for this project to become my life's work, but it has consumed me. I am reaching the point of burnout and am looking forward to finishing this film so I can move on to other projects (hopefully with BIGGER budgets!).

I recently outlined my first novel and hope to tackle that project as soon as my feature is done. I'm in love with the story of my novel and hope to also adapt it into a feature screenplay.

Oh yeah, and if you're interested in me (apart from filmmaking), here are a few tidbits:

1) I'm very serious about nutrition and working out. I hope to compete (more than likely in the model category) in a bodybuilding competition in the year 2011 hosted by good friends of mine and my wife. I still don't have enough MUSCLE MASS to compete in the heavier classes, but I've made some GREAT strides this year in the realm of fitness..

2) If I could trade every single one of my talents to be able to sing like Pavarotti or Andrea Bocelli, I'd do it without a second thought. Although I love film, to me MUSIC is still the ultimate art form.

3) It's a dream of mine to someday camp out in a cabin in the woods for a couple of months and write a novel.

4) I think I could live in the great outdoors.

5) And as much as I love filmmaking, I've thought about giving it all up to become a full-time missionary to Africa.

6) And Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year -- during the holiday season, I turn into a little kid (not the snotty nosed, bratty kids who scream for gobs of presents, but the Norman Rockwell kind of kid that could spend hours just staring at the lights on the Christmas tree).

So, that's about it.
