Traversing across Cuba from the Malecón of Havana to the Santiago de Cuba Carnival with Cinematographer Guy Livneh capturing B-roll to support a film inspired by La Lupe (one of the Spanish-language world's greatest performers).
30 Seconds to Mars "A Beautiful Lie" - Post Supervisor, Supporting Edy Enriquez and Jared Leto (Producers) on this imaginative and meaningful Short-subject Music Video. The multi-camera production shot entirely on location 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle. The music video has over 30 million views.
The Rolling Stones "Highwire" - Best Boy & Louma Crane Grip ("at every camera setup, long shoot").
Oasis "Live Forever" - Key & Dolly Grip. Responsible to affix Liam Gallaghger to a cement wall, in a decrepit preschool chair off to the side of the NYC Westside Highway. Liam's spur of the moment first shot up, at dawn.
RUN-D.M.C. (@ 1990/1993) - Key & Dolly Grip. Responsible to hang those six letters behind them, more than once...!
Salt-N-Pepa (@ 1990/1993) - Key & Dolly Grip quite often ("a few third meals with DJ Spinderella").
