Disharm0ny.com, 508 and the Zelda Documentary

My P2, Disharm0ny.com, is finished. It has been very well received so far in class. My friend Bryce is putting together a Vimeo group for our P2s and it will be up there shortly and I will provide the links for it here. But for now here are pictures:









After 4 years of having this idea stashed away it is now a film. The premiere screening is on campus this Friday. Thanks to all my cast and crew for helping this dream project become a reality.



We had our first meeting for 508 this week as well. 508 is the class number for Production II, our fall class in which we work in randomly selected teams on three projects.  My team consists of Drue Metz, Alana Waksman and myself.  You are the Producer/ Editor on one project, Director of Photography on one and, Writer/ Director of one.  I am DP first (for the film Drue wrote), producing second (for Alana) and directing third. The film I wrote is tentatively called Meet Derek.  The film is about Derek (surprise!), a 25 year old guy who has bad luck with the ladies.  He has only had 4 dates and they have all gone poorly.  So he is extra determined to make things go well when he meets Bridget. Much to his dismay the world seems out to make things difficult.

On a final note I shot a feature documentary outside of school this last weekend. It is a film about video games as an art film, the limits of human endurance, and insanity.  A small group of elite Zelda players have teamed up to beat 4 Zelda games in 48 hours.  I documented my journey to join those ranks... by myself.  Special shout out to Michael Starr, Shyam Sengupta, Brian Ott and Bryce Kho for helping me on that endeavor.
