“Ladies and gentlemen,” said Denham, standing on the stage. “I am here tonight to tell you a very strange story, a story so strange that no one will believe it.”
(From: King Kong, by Draycott Dell & Edgar Wallace, In: Menace of the Monster, Ed. Mike Ashley, 2019).
Kong was late. Stuck in traffic. The crew was restless and the director was furious.
“Shoot me,” said Ann Darrow.
“Flash me. Light meter me,” she demanded in her Greta Garbo voice.
“Do your thing!!” she yelled. There was a mad, impatient look in her eyes.
The crew erupted into applause. Photographers, assistant photographers, script girls and grips sprang into action. The cinematography spot lights came on. The atmosphere became - electric.
Neon electric. Jungle electric.
Neon jungle movie magic. In the heart of Bangkok.
She posed like a goddess.
She was Asphalt Aphrodite.
The crowd roared. The tourists clapped. Motorcycles collided.
Then Kong made a most dramatic appearance. Doing his thing. God, he was great.
Even the director was in a most splendid mood now.
It became, of course, one of the greatest movies of all times.

Rue Berthe, Montmartre
Paris, March 2020
The facades of buildings on Rue Berthe in Montmartre were transformed to look like Paris during WWII for the film, Adieu Monsieur Haffmann. With shop fronts created to reflect a cordonnerie (shoe repair shop), a brocanteur (second-hand goods shop), and corset, alcohol, and mirror stores, the set was designed to reflect the city in the time of Nazi occupation from 1940 to 1944, complete with war propaganda posters and signs in German.
This image gives you a look behind the scenes.

"Eternity and a Day"
In memory of Theodoros (Theo) Angelopoulos,
the Epic poet -painter of the Cinema & his unfinished quest,not by choice but by destiny ...
His death,on 24 January 2012, in a tragic road accident during the filming of his latest work, "The Other Sea ", was somewhat symbolic ...
He was a film director with magisterial style ...
His Cinema was like a vast canvas unfolding narratives and expressing the deepest feelings surrounding life.
1995 : "Ulysses’ Gaze". Grand Jury Prize at Cannes
1998 : "Eternity and a Day". Palm d’Or and Prix Ecumenique at Cannes.1998
Critics wrote that no film deserved the Golden Palm & the Ecumenical Prize, more than Theo Angelopoulos' "Eternity and a Day".
A Tribute to the memory of the internationally-acclaimed Greek director,one of the top 10 filmmakers of the 20th centurry,who worked for Perpetual Democracy & Peace worldwide.
"Megalexandros",
Trilogy of Silence: "Voyage to Cythera",

The bar is closed. Spain, 2026. CineStill 800T on Canonet QL17 G-iii. Developed & scanned by Aperture Printing in London.
Still from a charity music video I shot for American Dance Machine For the 21st Century in memory of actor Nick Cordero.
Summa summarum, Tauntaun was not so easy to use when frosty mist got under the furry coat. In fact, you have to warm it up again for your next ride pretty much the same as they warm up a cars in snowy and frozen territories before the ride.
Luckily, they've found a small cave, where Han left Taun. After that, he had to continue his journey on Hoth by his own foots for a several hours. Weather started to look a much better, too.
This is an continuation to a scene titled as Frost Side Story, where Han Solo were standing next to Tauntaun. Also, they haven't seen Wampa around. It's still inside a small toy box near the mountains. I haven't found a good place in storytelling point of view yet and I may have to skip it using it, until I do find an even a good spot in a scene. But, I'm sure it keeps my mind open about it!

Ghosts of Feature Film : A Cinematography Project
This project is an experimental collaboration where shots were composed from a cinema standpoint, incorporating actors actually acting out scenes, in-character, instead of modeling or just being photographed. With Joseph Petito acting on-camera as the main star, I lensed different scenes from 7 films. Each sequence is part of that specific film's larger story, each film having it's own style and distinct types of shots & angles. We designed this project to create a cohesive cinematic illusion that these are real movie screenshots, but for movies that don't actually exist... hence Ghosts of Feature Film.
