‘The Balloon” was screened last night in the beautiful Cathedral Square at the launch of the first SoAL Film Fest (read yesterdays post for more info). I’m so pumped to let you all know that ‘The Balloon’ won the scramble, we took 1st place baby! So huge congrats are in order to the team, everyone did [...]
a 48 hour short
Two weekends ago, myself and a team of others, participated in the We Love Mobile! Film Scramble. We had 48 hours to write, cast, shoot, edit, and score the film. I had the privilege of editing ours which was a lot of fun. Each team was randomly given a couple of locations that had to [...]
location scouting – theres an app for that
Over the last month, I’ve been working with a couple of guys on producing a short film (I’ll post more details on the project a little later). Today, we hit downtown Mobile scouting locations and getting a little b-roll/test footage in prep for our principal shoot later in the month. I took tons of shots on [...]
a stimulus of faith
A few weekends back we made a small gesture to the people of our community, and the people of our church. It’s almost unbelievable the attention this act has gotten, but really its just one of many acts of giving from Bay. The ‘Faith Stimulus,’ as its been dubbed by the media, was a simple [...]
where the wild things are
I’ve been looking forward to this movie for a long time, its seen quite a few snags along the way, but its finally coming to a theater near you and me. ‘Where the Wild Things Are‘ is probably my favorite childrens book of all time, and I’m so excited that Spike Jonze is the man [...]
doubt
I can cross one more off my ‘Need to See‘ Oscar list coz I finally got to see Doubt last night, and I’m so glad I did. It’s 1964, St. Nicholas in the Bronx. A vibrant, charismatic priest, Father Flynn (Philip Seymour Hoffman), is trying to upend the schools’ strict customs, which have long been [...]

summer comedy review
My 30 second review of three of the top comedies of the summer: Step Brothers: I love Will Ferrell. Love him. Not so much though, that I think everything he touches is gold, and this is one of those cases. Its hilarious, don’t get me wrong, but the movie gets boring and cheesy toward the [...]
blue like jazz: the movie
I’ve been hearing bits and pieces about the Blue Like Jazz movie for awhile now, and it makes me very excited for 2 reasons. 1, I loved the book, probably one of my favorite books of all time. Don Miller is a genius, and he put into words a lot of what I’d been feeling [...]
the dark knight
The Dark Knight is definitely not your father’s Batman, there’s no Adam West or grey spandex anywhere to be found. This was an incredible movie, a movie that technically doesn’t fit in the array of typical summer movies because its not a popcorn movie. I think TDK was as much epic crime saga as it [...]
friday faves
Here are a few of my favorite things from this past week. /1. Lars and the Real Girl. A story about a guy who buys a sex doll and thinks that its his new girlfriend may seem like every other movie you’ve seen, but let me assure you its not. Rent it, download it, pay-per-view [...]
