Principal photography has just wrapped on Ed Zwick’s WWII Polish Resistance epic, DEFIANCE, on which I had the pleasure of working as an additional camera operator over the course of the last few months. The film is based on the true story of four brothers in Nazi occupied Poland who flee to the Belarussian forest with a band of Jews and join forces with Russian Resistance fighters. Set for release in 2008, DEFIANCE stars Daniel Craig and Liev Schreiber. Accomplished director of photography Eduardo Serra (AFC, ASC), camera operators Mike Proudfoot and Klemens Becker, additional 2nd unit DoP, Robert Alazraki, and the many other talented craftsmen and actors who were involved in the making of this film were an inspiration to work with.

Gay Rosenthal Productions in Los Angeles has invited me to work on their hit TV documentary series for TLC. “Little People, Big World” follows the daily lives of the Roloff family who live on a 34 acre farm in Hillsboro, Oregon. The parents, Matt and Amy Roloff, are both dwarfs who have 4 children, one of whom is also a dwarf. Season 3 of the show will air in HD starting in October.
