Next Level in LA

So I've been here since August and I'm just getting around to updating how everything's been going. So far I've worked on an amazingly fun short film out at Sony Pictures lot, a really whack short film version of CATCHER IN THE RYE with some first-time filmmakers(oi)..oh yeah, and I shot a birthday video for a 1-year-old. Haha.

Yes, a 1-year-old kid had the most elaborate birthday party out in Manhattan Beach. They had a rock-climbing wall, basketball court, moonwalk, ballpit/chuck e. cheese area, and tons of food. I booked it through Thumbtack. A sweet website where you make a profile for your business or freelance work and bid on projects that people submit. It allows up to 5 bids per project, but if the client were to never view your bid you get auto-refunded. I like this feature so that I don't feel like I wasted roughly 5$ and the client never even saw my proposal. Here is a link to Thumbtack..give it a try if you want to get e-mails and texts about video/editing gigs in your area. I highly recommend it.<a href="http://www.thumbtack.com/al/leeds/video-production/film-video-production-and-editing">Film &amp; Video Production and Editing</a>

Moving on..I'm still editing weddings from back in Birmingham..begrudgingly, but hey it pays the bills..or some of them anyway. I'm blessed to have a wife that found a job within a month of moving and we're finally scraping and fighting to catch up from the big move.

I will continue this with my creative stuff I've been working on at a later date. Thanks and War Eagle.
