I’ve always been a storyteller (thanks, Mom & Dad), I know how to make movies (thanks, Loyola Marymount), and now I can make them with my phone (thanks, Apple & Adobe Premiere).
If only I had extra time… Ah yes, COVID and that whole lockdown thing.
WFH & OOTO,
YDY
One big advantage of COVID times is my brain never stops working.
Ideas just pop in my head.
And my kid seems to be down for whatever too.
Enjoy a few of our home movies.
Pass It On
At Saatchi LA, the extra time working remote led us to a storytelling relay with an odd name, based on a rich tradition.
Exquisite Corpse: Keeping It Quarantined
CD Robyn Stern and I gathered a bunch of creatives to shoot chapters, one by one, each within 24 hours and based only on the final 3 seconds of the previous participant.
It kept us connected, primarily by a potentially huge toilet paper shortage.
After everyone sent theirs in, I edited and mixed it all together.
EC2: Quarantine Quest
Cut to one year later. Pandemic still in place? Yes... Priorities adjusted, life changed, and a sequel needed? Definitely.
This time, I led the charge with the help of my partner (Krista Metcalf), gathering 25 creatives to lead us to a bigger blockbuster.
