Today was a preproduction day of scouting locations, meeting with hair and make-up people, discussing costumes, and rehearsing (in my living room). Our team was all over the city getting things ready for our shoot that starts Thursday!
I’m most impressed with people passionate about art that they would be willing to give their time for free to not only make a good story, but simply to work together-knowing that something supernatural happens in the community of filmmaking!
Here’s some lighting testing going on in the FOX theatre in which we get to shoot! We are so excited!
One of our special crew members is a long time Bay Area, Filmmaking native-Ned Kopp (below). He’s been working in films since the 1970′s. He’s worked w/ Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas, Bill Cosby, Robin Williams, and now us. Totally free because he loves filmmaking! And below is Tammy Calderon. This will be her second film she’s worked hair and make-up. It’s awesome to watch her light up and give her input. She’ll also be bringing some of her students from her cosmetology program to help! Thanks everyone!
Here is our director, Kerwin Kuniyoshi, sharing his vision for the film!

For the past couple years I’ve acted in a short sketch on Christmas Eve to dramatize the message of Christmas. This year, and for the first time in my life, I had a puppet as a co-star.
We affectionately called her, “Fluffy,”
Yes, I’m wearing a robe, a giraffe print robe.
One great way to get a film produced is to have a DEADLINE. So many films never get completed and end up staying in post-production limbo but.. when you enter a contest you have some incentive. We had 48hrs to complete a short film and I’m glad to say we did and it turned out awesome. It was for the
