Notes:
Here’s a music video I recently helped produce in Chicago. It was a quick shoot, but we still found time to have fun! It was great working with Brian Levin. I’m used to working with him as a Director of Photography, so it was great seeing him in action as a Director. Mike, Adam, Sean, Naz, and Jim were great to work with too. It was awesome working with Sue Redman and Brian Kavanugh. This was actually my third time working with Brian K. It seems like we keep crossing paths. Hopefully I can work with him as director one day. He really keeps an upbeat tempo on set. I hope you enjoy the video

Young Josh falls head over heels for an older girl. Sometimes people will do dumb things for a shot in the dark.

Notes:
This film was created for the producers of the “On the Lot” television show as my second round entry piece. They gave me a vague topic and I had to write, shoot, and edit this film in just one weeks time. I really appreciate all of the work and support I received from my peers, friends, and family on this project. They really made it come together. The “On the Lot” producers told me Steven Spielberg and Mark Burnett were going to watch this round of films to pick the shows final contestants. Whether this really happened or not is debatable, but I’d rather assume it DID happen then know the truth!
