About Me

I speak and write too much. I worry about that often :)

ANIMUS, a short film.

A young woman wakes up in the middle of a desert, clad only in a lingerie, with her belongings strewn around her. She struggles to survive and understand what happened.
ANIMUS
===============================2 months back, 8 of us piled into cars and headed for the high desert, to shoot a music video. Along the way, we fought a FRIKKING bitter cold night of camping (FRIKKING FRIGID), the hood of the car flew onto the windshield and smashed it as we were driving along the freeway, etc, etc...But it was worth it. And here's why:So here's a video directed by my friend Matt Millan with cinematography by me, that captures the wild spirit of the desert, cowboys, and outlaws.
