about:

comedy

Produced as a weekly half-hour TV concept for FOX,  the show is a quirky dramedy that revolves around the Galáns, a family of extreme overachievers... except for their youngest son Danny.  Danny just wants to be a normal kid.  When Danny draws a crayola stickman that mysteriously comes to life, things get truly surreal as Stickman wreaks havoc on the household.
 

notes:

I was called on an emergency to gaff for director of photography, Kirk Douglas and director Jeffrey Travis.

As gaffer, I:
o  shadowed the D.P. to execute his directives and offer feedback when asked
o  educated and directed my crew
o  took readings, tracked daylight exposure changes, and announced f-stops while the D.P. was at camera
o  monitored and maintained a balanced electrical load
 

tools:

camera – Sony F900

lighting/electric:
1.2K HMI fresnels
Kino-flo Selects
1K, 650w 300w, 150w fresnels
