Had the privilege of being the DP alongside Marc Haas a few months ago on the short film I Need Space, which has just been accepted into the 2025 Architecture and Film Symposium: Of Affect. We explored tone to highlight the contrast between contemporary and brutalist architecture - through color, lighting, and aspect ratios - while filming at amazing locations like the Akron Art Museum and TRG Multimedia’s new virtual production wall. The film also features a fantastic score composed by @jojotreho I Need Space will be screening at Kent State University and the Cleveland Cinematheque from October 23–25.

Some stills from some doc work about the inventor of the 3D printer, Chuck Hull. Got to play with the lighting a bit in the printing lab with some nice red and orange tones to compliment the blue skies while filming some paragliders.
