| Aspiration | ||||||
| I am a Cinematographer with BA in film and video from Columbia College. I will be attending American Film Institute this fall in L.A. for my MFA in Cinematography. The last 4.5 years I have spent shooting narrative and non-narrative films. I am a firm believer that message and story hold the key to any film. Every shot, every light that goes up has this idea motivating it. This is how I want to shoot film. | ||||||
