A few more behind-the-scenes of Tron: Ares with a special eye to the stunt crew who I worked with primarily on this gig. These guys are the best of the best and I loved learning from them. Specifically, shout out to my stunt double Cody Laudan and fight coordinator Brian Ho.
Tron: Ares is in theatres today in IMAX.
One week until the release of Tron: Ares so I figured I would post some behind the scenes photos I took of the crew. I came on board this project to see how a film of this scale is constructed, and the sheer volume of intricate parts serving a whole. There are so many devoted craftsmen and craftswomen all contributing their immense talents to serve a director’s vision.

Thank you to the @harlemfilmfest for awarding my feature screenplay, Black Macbeth, with the top honors at the festival. Was beautiful to hear it performed with talented, committed actors and it was incredibly important to me for a story about the Harlem artist community to begin its journey in the city. Was an honor to be involved.
