Shots for Trip

My personal photographer and assistant for my trip to Bangladesh, Wendy C. and I are getting recommended shots for travel.  The doctor was really cool, I should cast him for something, maybe a part in the next feature I Direct.

G4C Planning Meeting


The Urban World Film Festival recently signed a three year partnership with BET and were looking to bring on a third partner as the charity component to their collaboration. Their Executive Director (thank you Gabby) made an excellent choice in having Guns 4 Cameras to be that partner. I just finished a meeting with some of our key volunteers for G4C to discuss the plan of action for the coming weeks to address the requests and deadlines of the festival for our participation.

Contact Sheets


So I had a photo shoot over the weekend, which my friend Wendy C. set up for me. Right now I am meeting with her partner and photographer, Mauricio Quintero at a Starbucks here on Queens Blvd. I am about to see the contact sheets for the film images, for the very first time. The other photos they took on the digital camera looked amazing, so I imagine that these will be just as good. If you need great photos, look them up on Dripbook, tell them Eye On It sent you.

Angelo Ellerbee


Legendary Publicist, Angelo Ellerbee, takes a moment to speak about my philanthropic efforts. I am at his office right now on 34th street, discussing some of my future business endeavors and the associated PR strategy I will take to develop my brand. Angelo has worked with everyone form the likes of Michael Jackson and DMX to Mary J. Blidge. He is a very successful and respected authority in the music and entertainment industries.

Jump Shot


Note: I said how to shoot a jump shot...I didn't say make it. LOL What's really funny though, is how my friend Matt, who is shooting the video suggests intercutting a close-up of the shot actually going in. Yeah of course I could of just did the video over and made the shot, but I think this better represents my view on life. That is, it's not always about winning, but just taking the shot in the first place. So enjoy this video of me missing a jump shot...it is a very RARE occasion.
