There are three lights
Sorry, today’s pic is not very exciting compared to the mansions and Ferraris from a couple of days ago. I’ve been really bad about keeping up with this “daily” photo thing but maybe that will change — I just ordered a Canon S90 camera to replace my nearly dead Canon S70. I got it cheap with 10% Bing cashback at CircuitCity.com!

Shooting in the O.C.
Trying to shoot a narrative film on a Canon 7D requires overcoming a lot of compromises but once you get it all working right the results can be pretty impressive.
Honorable mentions for pic of the day (gotta make up for missing the last few days):
Palm trees and snow! I love California
The challenge of the zolly with an auto zoom lens
Umami Burger + Film Screening
So tonight I went to an outdoor screening of two short films, one of which happened to be the first public screening of “Middle of Nowhere” which I shot with director and old classmate Michael Carreño almost a year ago. And it happened to take place at Space 15 Twenty adjacent to Umami Burger right across from the good old L.A. Film School.
This was the tastiest burger I’ve ever eaten in my life, and that is saying a lot considering how many hamburgers I’ve eaten in my life (what can I say, burgers are my favorite food!) — I highly recommend it to all burger connoisseurs.
It was great to reconnect with all the actors and crew and also the space — I hadn’t actually been to Space 15 Twenty since it was just a bunch of old run down warehouses where we shot a lot of After Midnight. Back then it was dirty and full of homeless poo… now it’s full of hipsters, haha.

Button button, who's got the button?
The trusty old Panasonic MX-70. It satisfies my love of pushing buttons.

Harvey's / Johnnie's / Bob's
Another old (but recently refurbished) sign at the Bob’s Big Boy in Downey, formerly Johnnie’s Broiler, and Harvey’s Broiler before that.
