2 of our color-coded truss runs suspended from @buildmodulusx MX99 - the distance between beams was 9’ 10” - so 9’9” worked perfectly. Truss from @divisionrentals

A weird workaround to get cable to the set without touching the building. Also in front of the wheelchair access. A little overkill, but the location was happy

Back in December @yeaforbes called and asked me to design a structure for a steel ceiling piece with adjustable distance for lighting - so I got to work and came up with this. Designed in @vectorworks

Thankful to serve as Rigging Key / Best Boy on Bruno Mars’ music video for “I Just Might”

Thanks to everyone who came out!

Throwback to 2022, when I got to be BBG for KG @otterquest on “Dicks: the Musical” for A24. Fun times all around by @valhallagripco

Had the pleasure to be rigging key for KG @yeaforbes on a Celsius commercial a couple of months ago. Had some fun rigging a top-down shot looking down at this fire engine. The challenge here was not being allowed to rig any points on the cab. With some truss from @divisionrentals and additional rigging gear from @legacy_grip & @spitfiregrip. Special thanks to my rigging grips @gaitherpilosnarron & @charles_tae_ (and honorary rigging grip @matt_c0le) by @valhallagripco

POV Football Rig 🎥🏈 This one definitely took some trial & error to bring to life. Should we share step-by-step how we built it?

Special thanks to @connor_colby @legacy_grip 🔧

Had the pleasure of keying this AGT / KIA spot. Thanks again to the production for having me out again. We had 4 cameras on a process trailer, with a lighting rig to get all angles captured simultaneously.

Throwback to 2022 when filming “The Muppets Mayhem” with Key Grip Bodie Hyman. Fun memories with a great grip crew. Working with guys like these are why I love this job #grip #iatselocal80 #beach #muppets by @valhallagripco

Built these car rigs with a personal package for DP @gardellafella . Dynamic shots were wanted, so I designed it with the strength to hold a remote head.

There is a steel pipe frame under the car to support the weight on the back.

Short film we did recently.
Some highlights include leveling track in the mountains, a last minute rig, and 170’ of dolly track with no scout.
