Art of Dreaming


I recently finished the 3rd draft for my short film entitled "The Art of Dreaming". It's the story of a painter who mourns the lost of his lover in a surreal/dreamlike where she is trapped inside his own art. The screenplay came out as a result of a digital art piece i made awhile back. You can read and download the screen here. Art of Dreaming Screenplay

2nd A.D.

Well, earlier in 2007 I worked on a feature film entitled "Ace In The Hole" directed/produced by the production company Cevallos Brothers Productions. The film featured Mike Starr (Goodfellas, Dumb & Dumber, Black Dahlia) and Douglas Spain ( Star Maps & Band of Brothers). Now this wasn't the first time I've worked with the Cevallos Brothers. On the 3 previous times which, were all Music Videos, I was a Grip. I was gonna do Grip work on this feature but the original 2nd A.D got ill. Both the 1st AD and Director asked me if I would jump in. I didn't think twice. I love working with the Cevallos Brothers.


On Dec 2007 the Cevallos Brothers came back again to San Antonio, to shot a HEB commercial starring Eva Longoria ( Desperate Housewives) and I was asked to be their 2nd AD again. Which was an honor. Here is the commercial.


That being said, I am thinking about entering the 1st Assistant Director training program offered by the DGA, which gives professional training for Directors, 1st A.D. & 2nd A.D. Wanted to give a special thank you to my mentor and friend DGA member 1st AD/Producer John Nolan.
