On my very first day of working in LA (for free!), I rocked a stationary car with a 2x4 to make it look like the prolific K Callan was driving. Over 35 years later, we are still surviving in this town! Check out K on several episodes of Widow’s Bay! #kcallan #appletv #widowsbay

RIP Ted Turner. This is part of a doc I edited featuring Ted launching TCM. I was told he called in from his ranch to say he liked it, which was very satisfying for someone who started out inserting commercials into CNN Headline News at a Cape Cod TV station. #tedturner #turnerclassicmovies #tcm #classichollywood #classicfilm

May the Fourth! My first Star Wars drawing right after seeing it four times as a kid back in 1977, yikes. Poor Leia. Even back then I knew stormtroopers couldn’t shoot straight! #maythe4th #maythefourthbewithyou⚔️ #starwars #starwarsday

Some of the cool retro artwork created for the TCM Classic Film Festival, as seen on Hollywood Blvd. and at the historic Roosevelt Hotel. They always nail the vibe! #tcmff @tcm

I’ve been a lifelong fan of make-up effects legend Rick Baker ever since I saw him play King Kong when I was 12 years old, so it was truly a trip to work with him on a piece about the Karloff Frankenstein make-up. He even humored me with a couple questions about Kong. Great day. #rickbaker #universalmonsters #classichollywood #makeupeffects #classichorror

Fun recreation of a photo from almost 20 years ago: Em wanted to meet Doug Jones after he played the Silver Surfer and got to see him again while working one of my shoots. Thanks for the full circle moment, @actordougjones!

Loved collaborating with the amazing Doug Jones, performer of countless fantastic characters, for another episode of TCM’s Monster Influence. Doug shared his early memories of seeing Nosferatu and how he starred in a remake of the silent classic decades later.

A little jawsome fun at the superb Jaws exhibit at the Academy Museum. #jaws #jawsmovie #academymuseum

Was super excited to have my name in the credits of a film starring Robert Duvall (“Newsies”) when I first moved to LA. My memories: dropping off revised script pages to his big house (always taken by his trusty assistant in the driveway), and how the Disney execs were irked by his eccentric portrayal of Joseph Pulitzer. None of them had the guts to tell him to stop because…it was Robert Duvall. #robertduvall #newsies

My Super 8 Star Trek fan film made when I was 14 has been transferred to glorious 4K. I love how the full frame reveals my neighborhood pal Gretel the German Shepherd crossing frame. Krell the Klingon went on to become a US Army colonel and military judge, but here he is “overruled” by my Kirk Fu! Thanks to @pro8mm for making this look better than ever. #startrek #super8 #fanfilm #classictv #homemovies

I can’t thank #tcm enough for telling my story of this seven year journey creating “Reel Portraits “ . It was incredible working with you ! Special thank you to Jeff / Jennifer / Scott / Susan / and the incredible Rob Hampton
