About Me

www.thescourge.com
cinematographer, editor, DVD maker...
The Scourge - i make films under that moniker. lots of shadow, lots of contrast, lots of grain... mostly abstract stuff that a small percentage of the population kinda likes.
i live in los angeles, where good sushi restaurants exist in mini-malls. but, there are a lot of odd people here, so that balances out the monotony of endless beige buildings with flat roofs. that, and i can work here doing film stuff.
cats? i love em. if i give up on the film quest, i'll sell everything and open up a cat ranch in wyoming or new zealand...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

the below video serves a double-purpose. it was created to serve as background projections for Switchblade, an abrasively heavy band from Sweden. it also is the 3rd chapter in an ongoing series of video installations, which are outlets for The Scourge to explore the decadence and perils of humanity. this clip is the first 2 minutes of the 20-minute installation, which was inspired by and designed to specifically match the 20-minute song by Switchblade.
