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 & 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.
