FLIFF | Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival

Hecho a Mano - Trailer from Common Machine Prod. on Vimeo.



The world premiere of "Hecho a Mano," my first documentary as Director of Photography, will premiere at the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival on Oct. 16 @ 3:30 PM.

Hecho a Mano is a documentary film about the work of making art with your hands, told through four Cuban artists: a piano player, a sculptor and twin brothers who make mosaics.

I shot this film for Common Machine Production for PBS/WLRN. After the premiere at the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival on Oct. 16, it will be shown nationally in November on PBS.

Callaway Spring 2011 Golf Catalog "Behind The Scenes" Video from Richard Patterson on Vimeo.



I had a great time shooting the Callaway Spring 2011 Golf Catalog at Aperture Studios in Miami with photographer Jason Mahshie. The set pieces were beautiful and the images looked great. This is another great edit from Jorge Rubiera of Swamp Valve Pictures. I hope you enjoy.

Hecho a Mano - Trailer from Common Machine Prod. on Vimeo.



Hecho a Mano is a film about the work of making art with your hands, told through four Cuban artists: a piano player, a sculptor and twin brothers who make mosaics.

The film is a Common Machine Production for PBS/WLRN, due to hit the festival circuit in the summer and early fall with a national air date in November.

This has been a great project to work on and I look forward to the final cut in September.

New Trailer "Meniscus"

"Meniscus" a feature film by J.L.Rubiera from Jorge Rubiera on Vimeo.



This is the newest trailer for Jorge Rubiera's feature film "Meniscus."
I've had the pleasure of serving as the Director of Photography since day one.

I love the new look of the film and completely support going black and white. We've also transitioned into shooting the remainder of the film with the Canon 5D and 7D.

The film has taken us a little over a year to shoot and is definitely worth all the effort. Participating in projects like this one is what makes the daily grind worth while. A few more installments and we are off to the festivals.

I hope you enjoy.
