we love telling stories
Hey!... Hi there!! Thank you for visiting my website! I am so happy to share my art and hopefully collaborate with you. If you love story telling as much as I do, then you understand the love for this crazy, creative business we are in.
I want to tell you what I do, and the services I provide to help in the amazing work of creating filmed creative content.
I have worked with a lot of amazing professionals and I'm always happy to call on them to take part in your project. As a producer, I am able to help provide a productive and supportive environment yielding industry standard, high quality results. I feel that collaboration amongst team members is key to success and healthy creative working environments. Good plans, hard work, dedication and experience make me a valuable leader in any genre of filmed content.
I am highly proficient in lighting and camera equipment and processes in the creation of a multitude of genres. These departments have been my focus and joy for 20 years. Collaborating with DP's, running G&E crews for films, commercials, new media, and live fashion events has kept me on the cutting edge of independent film production. Working in Pre-Production all the way to consulting in Post-Production helped me to make large contributions to the success and look of hundreds of finished projects.
I am certified as a Licensed Prop Gun Wrangler with additional certificates in Prop Gun Safety Level 2 and CRSO.
Working with Theatrical Firearm Props has been a focus of mine for the last 5 years. In support of my interest in this field I have gained valuable training and insight through classes, individual professionals and intensive training programs both in Theatrical Firearm Props and Live Fire Training including tactical and competition styles of firearm training.
I believe in telling stories on camera by having experiences for the actors, and all involved, that are as immersive as possible. The way to do this is by providing an educated authority in Safety. The first thing learned and so the very first rule is safety. Coming from grip side I have always been involved in safety as a Key Grip and I bring the same attention to safety with Theatrical Firearm Props that many of you, who know me, have come to expect from me.
If you need to use Theatrical Firearm props, using blanks, co2, green gas and/or VFX, feel free to reach out to me.
I am Acting! Yay! ...It has been a great love of self educating that has brought me to this sudden rise in starring and supporting roles. I have been working with creativehq.com, The Film Mentorship Program and I'm happy to say you can see our award winning and other short films online and in film festivals in Los Angeles. I am open to many roles and if you need a 50 something actor guy, feel free to reach out to me. So far I have portrayed many uniformed police, a sheriff that turns into an werewolf, and a bad ass detective hoping to retire soon but, with his partner, keeps getting shot at by the bad guys. I really love this stuff if you couldn't tell.
So... if you are working on a creative filming project, I hope I can be of service. Feel free to reach out with questions.
Thank You
David
