I went to Mannan and Arbab’s house yesterday. Arbab had borrowed a lighting kit from SFU for an assignment, and, since I’ve never had the opportunity to work with lighting for film/video, trying them out was really the only option we had.

I can’t wait to get a chance to finish up this film, Jinx. The problem is that the longer I take, the higher the expectations rise, but it was all really just an excuse to hang out with some friends, which caused a lack of finesse in the filmmaking that’s drawing out the post-production process just to make it watchable. A glasses-free Kevin Lam makes an appearance in this still. I say glasses-free because they were violently removed for him by a soccer ball moments before this shot. True story.

There is no longer any doubt in my mind that DSLRs are potent tools for real filmmaking. shot on the Canon 7D by Eliot Rausch Luke Korver, and Matt Taylor, this short-form doc captures a beloved dog’s life as it comes to a close.

Beautiful, touching, and near-impossible to make or see without modern technology.
