Kottak Attack

I had a great experience working with Scorpions’ drummer James Kottak and his wife Athena Lee. Spending two days with the Cinemacia, Locked Horns Productions and the UAT Digital Video crew filming greenscreen elements for a video to accompany James’ “Kottak Attack” drum solo for the band’s 2010 world tour.

10th Annual Phoenix Film Festival

I spent the weekend at the phoenix film festival.  This was my 5th year in attendance.  I mark it as my anniversary within the film community here in phoenix.  A lot has changed since my first year there as a volunteer.  But it is always a great time spent with my colleagues, friends and old mentors I now get to call my peers.  I get to talk shop, talk projects, talk cameras, critique, acclaim, and see a movie or two.  It’s pretty much my kind of event.

Thanks to IFP Phoenix, and the entire Phoenix film community. I love being a part of it.

The Murder of Robert Krentz

There exists here on the border a community of people that have lived near and who’s families have been intertwined for generations. Those of us living on the border with Mexico call this place home. We are a community, not a war zone. Every community has crime, some more than others. Ours has become an area where the politicians have taken advantage of crime and used it for their federal political platform. Is anyone asking the national guard to take up stance in South Central, LA? – READ MORE…[Hey, While you are up...?]

Sugarpimps

I kind of have another project going.  www.sugarpimps.com I have only a few posts up and more will probably be rare and come along when I get a hold of some inspiration and free time.   But I am going to try and use it to come up with things like free legal downloads and tutorials or reviews/comments from “the industry”.   Best thing to do is add it to your RSS feed, so you don’t have to remember to come back and check it often.  Instead, let them come to you!–Keegan

Baseball Gameplan with Jason Giambi

Here is a promotional video I worked on for Shotzoom, subcontracted through Tribal Iris with Tim Allen. Baseball Gameplan is a video intensive app geared towards teaching young players tips and drills to improve their game.   Read more

…for the iPad

I’ve been spending all of my time lately working on a huge pile of video content for and app scheduled to release with the Apple iPad.  Probably can’t say too much for disclosure reasons.  But I do get to spend 7 days a week editing with my friend and colleague Tim Allen.  The edits are high energy, informative and look just awesome.  I also might hint that I now know a lot more about Baseball than I ever even considered before.

I’d like to also note that “The Rainbow Boy” is still seeking donations to complete post-production on kickstarter.  I think this is a great project to get behind that when completed will be a beautiful triumph and voice for the Navajo people.  Take a look at the trailer, read about the project and consider if maybe this is something you would like to contribute to.  “The Rainbow Boy” on Kickstarter.

“The Rainbow Boy” trailer and Kickstart

If any of you have seen my photography from in the Navajo Nation. Or have heard me talk of, or have seen POISON WIND. Then I ask you to take a minute to watch this trailer for “RAINBOW BOY” on kickstarter.

Homebrew: Ring Flash

I built myself a ring flash for my still camera.  It was a crafty little experience and went through a revision.  I used a disposable pie pan and some diffusion paper.  fitted it with a sealed hole to shoot through, and an unmounted flash. Lots of just, measuring and cutting but it was pretty simple, really.

Both work, each little differently in their effect.

Sugar-Junkie

I’ve come forward to help get a baking site/blog going by doing some food photography for a Miss Sarah Mae and her new site www.sugar-junkie.com. You should check it out.

Food photography is great. It is usually small and controlled. Deals a lot of with color and texture. You are trying to get the eyes interested in something you would normally only be concerned about taste or smell.

I’m not doing all the photography on that site.  The bottom of each post usually has a proper photo-credit listed.
