The Willy Gee Story

Through my experience as a professional and as a student, I created RAQFilms my personal studio that I dream of nothing but becoming a major studio. In a previous post I talked briefly about RAQFilms, but nothing about the work. One of my Major Pieces of work that I have created was a music video I named The Willy Gee Story.

It was a production like several of my videos where I came across a lot of problems on ideas for a video. I experienced a little bit of a writer's block and it was decided I wasn't going to do the video in the first place. But after a lot of thinking we ended up doing the video with just a camera, a monopod, and an actor. Just like several of my videos I am always required to shoot on the spot with no plan. So knowing what I knew about the Vegas area I needed to come up with a story and location. With the song already recorded in a draft version and less than 2 days on its due date. My actor and friend William Gonzalez and I drove off to Fremont and went on an adventure finding a spot before the sun had set. And... Let's just say this is one that you must watch. Enjoy!

RAQFilms

Set through a lot of series of titles and commotions on a title. Raqfilms is a project I have been creating since the beginning of my college career. Through this project of RAQfilms, I strive to put out a portfolio  site for the work people are dying to see. RAQFilms is my personal studio I have been dying to create with a friend in which it Showcases my prized work as a cinematographer and Director Photography. At the end of the project the one goal I would like to achieve would be to just achieve a reputable website that I could use to show professional clients as well as gain opportunities through. RAQfilms has been a dream of mine that I have not been able to get motivated enough yet to do. But has been in the makings for a while as I gain more reputable work to put onto it and brand it as my brand.



The Suicide Squad

The Suicide Squad one of the more recent topics that has surfaced the mainstream newsfeed. This film definitely changing a lot for the viewers of the DC fan base. The Suicide Squad recently had a trailer released of its first looks and by far it looks amazing. The reason the hype went through the roof was mainly because of one character, the Joker. Heath Ledger the former joker who had past at an early age really had set a marker for the Joker franchise and left no room for failure while doing it. People questioned if it could be redone because of how high the marker being set. Well from this trailer people were not disappointed with the introduction to the new era Joker and Harley Quinn. By far a trailer that sends goose bump all over my body.
