About me
Film making and photography has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. I studied Radio, Television and Film in college and worked full-time in video production years ago. I chose a different career field in aviation as a professional pilot.I have always had a motivation to return to film and video production. I started a production company, Bluesideup Films, in 2016. I have a complete set of production equipment including 4K and 6K cinema cameras to lighting and audio as well as a Steadicam for production. I also have a 12' to 21' Jib with pan tilt remote head, Dana Dolly, Mavic Air 2S Drone with a FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot UAS license. I have shot short films, interviews, episodic TV series and multiple full length feature films. I look forward to using all my production equipment for more projects in the future.
I am technically minded and have a good eye for framing and the art of cinematography. I am very thorough in my preparation for projects and have a strong working knowledge of all aspects of production. I look forward to adding to my experience in digital film production.
