The 12 of 12 is a fun photo essay project started by a guy named Chad (click link) that I try to do every month. This month I am late and therefore cheating (sweet logic, eh?) but I will be showing you cool pics from our film "Numbers" shoot in Arizona.

Waiting for the sun on the first shot. Thats 'my' cab we're looking at.

Producers Brian & Greg guzzling coffee with me on the balcony whilst continuing the waiting.

Now we're talkin'! This is actually the 2nd cab location.

Goofing with Deano, taken with some filter-type iPhone app.

You really have to be specific, yet gentle if you want people to keep their dirty meat hooks off! Later I passed out the extras to our awesome crew.

Day 2, wrapped as an actor, on to producing & cutting.


Gripping, gaffing, whatever it takes. DP Tim AC Keegan and I can't make out who else.


As a producer you sometimes have to wrangle the flying pony.

Moof.

Coolest pic of the week. Look, it's Amy and Ashlyn.


iPhone dorks, including writer/director/lead Annie.


AZ has good sunsets in both cold...

...and warm color temperatures.

I'll have to post more pics of our great cast & crew, especially if I keep this blog going as some sort of diary of film & acting projects. Lately I just feel overwhelmed by the amount of 'stuff' and places to put your 'stuff' online that I was thinking of ditching the 'ol blog...or maybe just making it an anonymous 12 of 12 monthly deal.. We shall see!

The 12 of 12 is a fun photo essay project started by a guy named Chad (click link) that I try to do every month. This month I gave myself 10 mins. to shoot around the office.

Crusty! With some odd stuff on the left gained in the transfer. Weird.

Gertrude Lippincott. A popular dancer in NY in the late 40's. I bought this pic on ebay. No relation.

Mac light.

Oops, wandered into the edge of the kitchen.

Pic of my first day snowboarding ever...a couple years back at A-Basin. The keen-eyed viewer (especially a skier/boarder) will be able to approximate the year from the gear.

Old fan & defunct Jersey farm Milk bottles.

Whos that lookin at you in that poster?

Some scripts & books. Fuzzy pic but it was a second try so here it is .


Bob! They just tore down the one near me, gotta go up to Burbank now for my 2-2-2 breakfast.


Check, check 1 2.


Thermal print containing 8 stills of me in the teaser trailer for Evolution, my first 'big' Hollywood job. It's in the DVD extras if you buy or rent it. I really should get a frame for this thing.

Sirius radio. I like the blue glow.

Thanks for lookin. And if anyone knows how to make the pictures in Blogger NOT blow-up super-huge when you click on them, please clue me in. Thanks!

The 12 of 12 is a fun photo essay project started by a guy named Chad (click link) that I try to do every month. This month I snapped them all within about an hour in Venice. I love Sunday at the beach.

Little gazebo peer to the middle of the sand.


Even in winter, don't forget.


Friend at late breakfast.

And another...

And another...

Dork.

Busker. This guy was really good. All in Spanish, my friend to the west was swooning.

The forbidden area behind all the sellers of wares. Carny secrets!

The lovely apartments with the killer location.


Schwinn party bingo.

Wildlife. OK I admit, not the best representation since we saw too many dolphins to count and many diving pelicans who were very fast and cool. I just didn't have the camera then & pigeons need love too.

What could this be, suspended above the palms?

Audition today. It came in last night and it was for a very cool role in a very cool film. I had a blast, sweat a lot & did not leave anything down in the car.
