THE MASTURBATOR

Ok, I'm going for a double post today.. Because there is just so much happening.. I just completed and released the next episode of my web series LOST IN LA. I don't know if people realise or not... I edit all the episodes.. So I guess you could call me an editor.. Although I only have time to edit for myself (with LOST IN LA)  these days.. I'm a self taught editor which means I learnt on the job and researched how to do it on my own. I use Adobe Premiere Pro CS6. I have been editing on and off for about 10 years. I started really young on like a crappy version of an old imovie.. haha.. But it has paid off as they were the early beginnings. So what I want to share with you today are some little in's and out's from this episode.. I drew my inspiration for writing this episode from being actually flashed by a random in LA.. Strange things always happen in LA.. Trust me! Also, I knew that if I wanted the episode to really work I would need believable sketches (the police props in the episode) so I used my drawing skills and drew the sketches myself, I actually really enjoyed that part of it. I like being able to exploit my own skills as sometimes when you're film making you can get over whelmed by so many other things you can't control. By using your own skills you kind of take it back in your own hands. Also, drawing is such a handy asset to have in film making not only for story boarding but for occasions like this.



It's always sooooo much fun working with Jared Van Doorn who plays Jeffrey in the scene with me.. He has a great style to his character and acting. Also, I love working with Cheol-Woo Park who captures the footage, he is amazing and never gives himself enough credit :) In case you're wandering, I keep my crew very small and focus on the script and the actors as much as I can. 
Thanks for watching and feel free to ask me anything
