Things are looking Up?

Hello world! I suppose I should do an introduction to my blog and what I'll be posting here. I like the idea of putting my film thoughts down on paper or umm...web and having a place where people might comment and give more input on the things that they're seeing.

I'm a recent graduate of Columbia College Hollywood with a BA in Cinematography in Film and Television. I love film but my first passion was photography. I started a website called La Bella Vita Photography to begin shooting weddings and portraits, however, that got boring. Weddings are a happy time but I felt like I didn't have the wedding gene. So, I started shooting for another website covering concerts up and down California. It's been three years since I started doing that, starting with Warped Tour 2005. I really enjoy it and it gets me into concerts for free. I usually get to do interviews as well and the press tickets for me and a friend are quite great seats. Check out the concert reviews, as I have done most of them.

I'm currently interning at Fox Digital Studios on the Fox lot in Century City, CA. We're working on a music project with director Tony Kaye of American History X fame. It is quite an experience trying to get something like the the excentric side of American Idol type show off the ground. A lot of what I do at Fox I can't talk about because they'll "let me go". We can't divulge any projects except for the one I already have. Suffice to say, I'm not doing exactly what I want to do here which invovles sitting at a computer all day researching. We do have an all access pass to the LA Shorts Fest which I'll be attending here in a bit to catch the 315 and 530 screenings. Gotta run!
