TWO DAYS

This past October, I had the opportunity to come on board and help produce a new Police-thriller feature film to be shot in Central Florida.

TWO DAYS tells the story of GUY MARKS, a police officer with 27 years in the force. This is his last day before retiring. His job is being a police officer, his life is being a police officer. His entire existence has been the daily routine of patrolling seedy streets and dealing with scum. Now it is all coming to an end and all his inner demons finally will get a chance to surface.

We shot for 18 days throughout October, on location from Sanford, FL to Lake Wales, FL. We had a great crew and cast, and knocked the project out on time and on budget.

Here is a concept poster I shot and designed-


Here are a couple of the film stills I grabbed while not running around the production office like crazy.



We now are working, editing the film in Post. Find out more about it at it's Facebook page here.

I've fallen behind in the Blogging, due to two new feature films Ive been working on... so here come the updates!

I shot the October 2011 Cover for aXis Magazine, featuring my buddy, Tiffany Martin (Radio DJ from The Monsters on Real Radio 104.1 and lead singer of the gnarly girls rock group Dollface) The shoot was set up at the UCF World of Beer, where the cover promoted their WOBtoberfest event coming up.

PHOTOSHOOT: alt NOIR Magazine

I've been super stoked to release the images from this ExtraTerrestrial themed shoot for altNOIR Magazine. I teamed up with Orlando model Lily Le Roi to do a shoot based on Katy Perry's "ET" video for the Out Of This World themed issue of the magazine. The article is used as a makeup tutorial. The shots came out stellar! You can check out the tears below (FYI: I did NOT shoot the cover), and see more info on the magazine at their site here.

PHOTOSHOOT: Et Cetera Magazine, Fall 2011

For the Fall 2011 issue of Et Cetera Magazine, I got the opportunity to shoot with two very influential people: Michael McRaney (who runs The Beacham, The Social & McRaney's Tavern in Orlando) & Watersports legend Scott Byerly (Founder of Byerly Boards and creator of the Byerly Toe Jam). Two very triumphant citizens of Central Florida.

For McRaney we set up a shoot around his stomping ground, The Social. For Byerly, we built a mini studio in the living room of his beautiful Windermere home.

You can check out McRaney on the cover, and the editorials below. The mag is on stands now.

PHOTOSHOOT: aXis Magazine Cover, Sept 2011

Usually each year the September aXis Magazine cover goes to Wall St's Rumfest event. This year was no different. We set up shop outside of Waitiki, to grab this shot with two of their bartenders. The girls were a lot of fun, and I think we pulled off a fun cover...



Here is our standard Behind the Scenes video, shot by the infallible Paul Steward.

PHOTOSHOOT: aXis Magazine's 20 Coolest People

Since we were out of town on our little family vacation the first week of August, I missed the cover shoot for that month's issue of aXis Magazine, the 20 Coolest People in Orlando edition. However when I returned, we had decided to do a little video shoot, interviewing a couple of the people, and doing a couple new promo shots for them. I met up with our hostess, 2010 Playboy's Playmate of the Month for July and repeat aXis cover model, Shanna McLaughlin, and we cruised around town to interview some of the coolest people. I also did a couple promo shots with 2 of our candidates...

Chris Kirkpatrick (of 'Nsync fame)



Johnny Magic (Radio host on XL106.7)


Here is the final video we produced for the segment...
