Gaffer
James was my Gaffer for the third year thesis film I shot at UNCSA and he did an exceptional job bringing the style and mood of the project to life through the lighting. He is one of the most humble hard and working people I've had the pleasure of kn ...MORE...
owing and working with. On top of that he has an exceptional eye for lighting and evocative imagery which makes him an invaluable collaborator.
James attended our preproduction meetings and tech scouts leading up to the production to ensure he was with me every step of the way and that he was fully aware of the challenges we would face. James is truly someone you want on your team because he understands not only the artistic considerations but also the logistical and technical aspects as well. He made great contributions and suggestions for the project and had my back in every decision we made.
