November 2009

Today we shot part one of the Alice in Wonderland series. Shooting in the Lincoln Park Conservatory made it feel like Alice in Tropical land. We got some really cool shots and got a chance to see a place I’ve never been before. Here’s a small sample of the location. More photos coming soon!

I just found out that anyone using Internet Explorer couldn’t see the photos in the photo gallery. Funny how missing one little “>” in a page of code makes the whole thing fall apart. Should be no problems now. Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I’m happy to be posting some new images from the Juan shoot I did a few weeks ago. Check them out! I’m finally catching up on the retouching so I’ll be shooting new material in the next few weeks!

A year and a half ago I moved to Chicago and set down the goal to rebuild my directing portfolio because I had taken a few years off from filmmaking. My goal was to direct at least three new short films or music videos, get back into the Chicago filmmaking scene, and network with other [...]

Have some good news on the horizon. I’m hard at work on my new director’s reel. I’m also building a page dedicated to my photography. Keep an eye out for it this Friday! (If the CSS and JavaScript doesn’t give me trouble, haha)

Last night I attended the CFAFF film festival hosted at the Portage theatre. It was my very first film festival where a film I directed was being played. I arrived at the theater a little late, (yes I was late for my own premiere) and missed all the cast and crew that had arrived before [...]

At last I can finally announce my good news. If you’re a friend on my Facebook account or if you follow my Twitter feed you’ve already seen this. The Scorpion & The Frog, a film I directed this past February, is an official selection of the Chicago Filipino American Film Festival! If you’re in the [...]

I can’t believe I forgot to post on this. I’ve been published as a photographer! Very cool. This tear-sheet is from N’Digo magazine’s Oct 29th issue which is on newsstands this week. As I mentioned in an earlier post, this was for designer Ogi Merzier’s Liquid Gold line. I’ve also been contacted by an editor [...]

Photo for a new store opening in Lincoln Park called Little Black Dress. More photos to come soon. I still have to announce my “big exciting news”, but I’ve been buried in retouching work. I’m trying to get some art together when I announce it. It will be up in the next few days.
