The Shadow

Yesterday I was on one side of a large muslin tarp lit with 4' mirrors and our talent was on the other...

Sunshine Dog

We finally had some sun today and Seven took full advantage. But it appears he'll need an adjustment.

The Power Couple

Cousin Ted and BFF Walter got to go to the Golden Globes last night. Their official photo is a work of Hollywood fantasy and fun.

Nice Win

Favorite British import Downton Abbey walks away with the Golden Globe for best Mini Series.

Vasquez Stunts

A few weeks ago we were just north of LA @ Vasquez rocks to film a stunt man flying off the famous cliffs. A crane was put in place to give stunts a point to secure our hero. Cameras rolled and out into the ether he jumped.

Weekend Dog

Seven enjoys a bit of sun after a bone on a perfect Sunday afternoon.

Honeysuckle in Boom

The honeysuckle in the front has exploded in a sea of orange blooms.

New Kicks

Using influence inside the halls of Nike, I recently got a new pair of their great running shoes. Snazzy color and very comfortable.

Weekend Dogs

Brother David's excellent carving watches over the real deal.

Christmas Day

My brother gave us an adorable likeness of Seven carved from a piece of driftwood found on a beach. The tech present of the year was a very cool portable speaker/radio/bluetooth system from Geneva Lab

Christmas Eve

We made another perfect bird last night with Franny, Larry and Brother Steve in on the fun. Homemade bourbon concoctions and St. Germain champagne cocktails made sure we all had an oblivious and silent night.

Starlet

On the New York street @ Paramount studios, we have a ravishing starlet about to make her way to set.

Patient Dog

Seven waits for a nap to finish.

The Model

We were recently shooting a model of an urban street when the director stuck her head in to survey the scene.

Sound Department

Ellen huddles with sound mixer Shaun to map out audio strategy for the day.

Xmas On The Lot

The last few days we have been shooting on the Paramount lot in Hollywood. They have some spectacular lights going on. Oceans of white bulbs. Beautiful at night.

Holiday Dog

Today we tried our hands at a little Christmas decorating. Seven saves the day by making a weak effort look noble.

How Windy Was It?

From the weather station near the top of Mount Washington.

Political Tweeting

With the downfall of Herman Cain complete, this might be the best political tweet ever!

Blackout Dog

After the terrific wind storm last night, we are still without power. Having water (cold) and gas has softened the blow. So we are camping out with LED lighting, Thanksgiving Day leftovers and chocolate cupcakes.
