Driving Yourself Crazy the Visual Way —

When I finished work on the BBS Documentary and said I was going to make a couple more, one of my pithy remarks was that I liked pretty much everything about the BBS Documentary except the video and the sound. What I meant was that I’d shot everything on the run with a Canon XL-1 […]

Getting Lamp —
