Accomplishments

    Over the course of my career as a Cinematographer, in addition to collaborating with many brilliant artists, I've had the amazing opportunity to work with 5 Oscar winning Directors: Peter Bogdonovich, Mike Figgis, Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, and Michele Gondry. With Figgis, I shot The seminal film "Timecode," which is still shown in film schools to this day for its example of daring and innovation. Including, working on iconic shows like "Curb Your Enthusiasm," "Arrested Development," and "Flight Of The Conchords," I have shot over 160 television episodes. These shows and films helped me develop a 3 camera shooting technique that is both unique, extremely difficult while still capturing and delivering the images needed to support improvisational storytelling.

Music

As a Cinematographer, incorporating the essential elements of Color, Light and Movement, have become my career mantra in film and television. Yet, my lifelong passion has been music. I've been writing, recording, singing, and playing guitar, and keyboards etc for 40 years.
