Ok, so you know what I've done... but who am I?

Well, I like to create things. Videos, films, web sites, photographs. My favorite would have to be films and videos because there are so many ways to make the audience experience what I've created. There's a picture, and it's moving, and there's sound, and you can shoot from many different angles, and then put those shots together to tell a story.

On the other hand, with photography all you need is film and a camera... no script, no actors (ok, maybe a model), no crew (ok, maybe an assistant), no millions of dollars needed, no huge screen and projector needed to show it on.

Anyway... here are a few of my favorite things:

Music:
The Beatles
Led Zeppelin
The Tea Party
Muse (the English band)
and a variety from Beethoven to trance

T.V.:
MSNBC
ESPN
Family Guy
The Wonder Years
Twin Peaks
Red Dwarf
Letterman
Movies:
The Matrix
Lord of the Rings
Constantine
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Donnie Darko

Food:
BBQ Spare Ribs (Tony Roma's are #1)
Alfy's pizza (sausage & pepperoni w/ BBQ sauce)
sweets (you are what you eat :D )
Sweet and Sour Chicken
the original old BBQ Chicken at KFC
Things I can proudly say about myself that you (probably) can't say about yourself:
  • I worked for FOX for two years as a lighting director and camera operator.
  • I modeled for American Crew for about six years.
  • I have had purple and green highlights in my hair (at the same time).
  • I have an Arctic White 1991 Corvette with over 200,000 miles on it.
Things I can proudly say about myself that maybe you CAN say about yourself:
  • I like Macs better than PCs.
  • I like Sprite better than 7-up, and clear pop in general better than dark pop (except Root Beer).
  • I like Taco Time better than Taco Bell.
  • I like Burger King better than McDonalds.
  • I like World of Warcraft, though I recently stopped playing
