About Me

apolitical escape artist

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

the term "girl" has been applied to "any young unmarried woman" since 1530. the meaning "sweetheart" is from 1648; "girl-friend" is attested to be from 1892. "girlie" (adj.) "meant to titillate men" is from 1942. "girl next door," as a type of unflashy attractiveness, was first recorded in 1961.

In the Summer of 1999, I attended the NYFA @ UCLA. Below, you'll find one of the short films I shot/cut (with an Arri-S and a Steenbeck flatbed). It features the band Phantom Planet and their song "In our Darkest Hour" (taken from their Black Cape Demos). There exists a higher quality version, if you access it directly at youtube.com...

Below, you'll find another of the short films I shot/cut at the NYFA @ UCLA (again, with an Arri-S and a Steenbeck flatbed). It's called "Pretty" and features Anne-Brigitte Couchouron and "Nice to be Pretty" by Linus of Hollywood.
