Test Shots

I love a smooth dolly shot as much as you do, but sometimes its nice to have a little wobble. I usually prefer things to be a little rough around the edges (on purpose of course). That's why we got this little cart-thingy. Works great on hard wood!

Movies I'd Like You To Watch

This film is impossible to describe, or review. In fact, calling it a film throws up the very idea of what constitutes a film.

Pictures

Living around so many ugly people makes it hard to snap great pictures.

That is my excuse for these.

Music

I wont post music that I listen to very often. Not that I don't love music... I just usually hate it when people make me listen to their music. So I don't want to make you listen to mine.

This song however is very special to me. You should take a few minutes to listen to it.

Test Shots

I've always loved the idea of making an audience feel... however I want them to feel. In this case the disorientation you feel when you wake up.

I consider the experiment itself a failure, but it still ended up being a neat shot.

Pictures

In all of these pictures I was trying to capture this floating black dot, but it proved to be a fruitless endeavor. I'm positive now it was the ghost of Carl's alter ego "Jack." Who was banished from the earth in 2008... or so we think.











Short Films

FEAR. HATE. VIOLENCE. kargl
\
A short I wrote and directed. The lives of a world-weary teenager and a misanthrope intertwine and explode into madness. 

This was shot on the Canon 5D Mark II. We used a number of different lenses, even though the short appears to be all done in one shot. A few digital effects were added in post such as the heroin needle and the hole in the wall.
