My happy 31st consisted of class, basketball, and a visit from the Joker. A buddy of mine decided to dress up as The Dark Knight’s Joker yesterday and never break character.
Let me know what you think!

Here in about 6 months I will be graduating from school and have to move out to find a real job in the industry I really want to be a part of. It’s a hard thing to wrap your head around, knowing that the contacts you have made in the past 15-21 months may or may not help out in finding you a job. Although it can be intimidating, I have faith i’ll be in just the place i’m needed whenever it’s time! -Spencer

Today was the third and final day of the UCF production I shot, “The Art of Box Pleats”. We entered the doors of Silver Lining Studios three days ago, and have hopefully now come out with some sufficient footage for the project. I had a great time going through the process of pre-production, and creating some “rules” for our characters and the environments in which they interacted within. Even though we might not have executed every point we wanted to make to it’s fullest extent, I learned a lot and had a good experience doing so. Thanks again to all of those who helped complete the project. Look forward to the screening! -Spencer

The weekends here, so back to work! Today was full of talent, lights and chaos starting the first days of the UCF production I’m shooting titled, “The Art of Box Pleats”. The story follows the life of a photographer who longs to express his passion for creative portraits with obscure wardrobe, in times of financial trials. I will keep you all posted with the progress as we start our second day of principle photography tomorrow! -Spencer

Arrived in Mansfield early last Saturday, just in time to enjoy a chili cook-off, Sunday morning church and go to some of April’s classes at the University of Texas in Arlington(www.uta.edu) . It’s quite a contrast from the trade school i’ve become so use to, for the main reason that people aren’t in classes they really care about. Out of the 15 months at Full Sail (www.fullsail.com) i’ve had over 21 classes that for the most part i’ve really enjoyed or gotten a lot of useful information out of them for the future. Being at UTA for one day, 3 out of the 3 classes we went to had little or no interest to me. Just a contrast…all i’m sayin’. 
Go Mavericks!
Anyways, been working on a new UCF script im shooting when I return titled, “The Art of Box Pleats”. So I hope all is going well for those who read, and will update you on the current project when things progress!

Last few days my father and I have been enjoying a good time waking up to donuts, and getting into free movies! We were able to see both “Fireproof” and Ridley Scott’s “Body of Lies”, which both seemed to give my expectations a complete 180. Never was I expecting to say that I would rather rewatch Alex Kendrick’s “Fireproof” over the next Scott movie. Although i don’t think “Fireproof” could touch anything like “Blade Runner” or “Gladiator”, i really felt the production value improvement made from his first film (”Flywheel”) was remarkable! Although I do realize that the DiCaprio/Crowe/Strong trio wasn’t even touched by Kirk Cameron and his band of no namers, I still found myself more interested in the relationship between him and his wife.
Unfortunately that’s all i have time to talk about the two movies tonight (which isn’t as far as i would had liked). I’ve got to start/finish packing for a nice trip to Mansfield, TX tom to visit April and her family!
Hope all is going well!

So about a good two weeks ago my macbook decided to stop displaying any images to me, idk what i did to anger it but it could turn on and off and make the sounds of the changing volume yet only a black screen remained. So i finally was able to go in yesterday for my 3:20p appointment with a genius. After a little while we decide that the lodging board had most likely tired out and died, supposedly that’s where the semi-important chips are placed like the CPU! So replacing this would cost me around a genius estimated 1,000$. However, when buying our MacBook Pros at the beginning of school Full Sail had us purchase the Extended Warranty in which saved my butt this time around. The regular warranty would have expired by this point and I would have to scrub up an extra grand or so to get this thing i use everyday fixed!

Let’s just ignore the fact that it has been ages since last posting 
So we have just finish shooting our first FILM project, which was a BLAST!! We shot on Super 16mm film (single perf), using the Arriflex SRIII. The story was actually written by one of my roommates (Mathew Schramm) and depicted the story of every unfortunate accident a person could experience during the care taking of a fish. I was lucky enough to be a part of the camera department, in which we switched throughout all of the department positions (Cam op, 1st AC, 2nd AC, Cable/Utility). Overall, we had a great time through the entire project from pre-pro and construction of the set to the week of pre-light, blocking, and production days.
