I had the opportunity to make something truly “with my bare hands” recently (as Sophie beautifully put it), made with just 2 lights, my Sony camera, a printer and 1 full ink cartridge.
My favorite songs from her album ‘Indelible’, now visualized.
A dual music video of
‘Phantom Limb’
& ‘Can I Tell You A Secret?’

The Uptown
/The-Uptown
A portrait of the remains of an original Cinerama theater.
I was asked by the current owners of the Uptown Theater and the future architects of the its reconstruction to create a film that highlighted the cinema's magnificence and history. Unlike the architects’ drawings and 3D renderings of a future cinema, the film serves as a testament to the beauty of the theater’s current state – a vacant space. Together, these materials will be used to encourage a donor to support The Uptown’s restoration of its original art-deco style, and reopening as one of the last single-screen theaters.
