Burning Man 2013

 

This year I finally made it to the Black Rock City in Nevada. The phenomenon called Burning Man. It was more magical than I ever could imagine. WOW the art was mind blowing! The work involved to get there took almost a year of preparation. Being a BM virgin was no excuse to sit around! My dear friend Ulan whose first BM experience hit him so hard last year, came to me with a crazy idea of building an art sound car. Well why not! So after he purchased a 20 foot truck we put our heads together to design the beast! Sheri and Ulan took themselves off to learn welding and with a team of around 30 eager friends and strangers we built an outstanding sound and dance truck. What a great year of hard work it has been. So many different emotions – most of all I loved the team work and the family created. Here is the link to the UNAVERZ website for more info. www.unaverz.com  The work that I personally did was help design the drawings and concept. I then paionted the top floor, 2 top floor benches, wall to Rah’s head and the staircase. I also designed magnets for BM gifts. Flier cards for our camp parties and Unaverz info. I also helped set up the 40 person Pongo Lounge camp. In addition I was so grateful to have my first plasma torching experience. Cut out some images in the large camp fire can. The only question now all the dust has been done and dusted….what are we going to do for next year? 🙂

Cate- iPhone App Promotional Video

It was a great honor to be asked to make this video  for Henning Von Vogelsang in Switzerland. His company River has developed an iPhone app that makes email and texting a breeze. I brought on Joshua Robles to capture some footage in and around Bay area. We met on the Pedestrian Bridge shoot. I knew that he would be awesome when I saw the magic he captured with his camera. Within one week we had our first timeline. Everything on this project worked remarkably well. We were in the right place at the right time and some magic emerged. Many of my dear friends and my girls featured in these shots which makes it even more special. So grateful for everyone’s support during this process. The clients were very happy with their video.

Here is the video up on Indigogo

Green Thumb – weekend shoot

This last weekend I had the great pleasure to work with some very talented cast and crew. The short film Green Thumb was filmed in just one weekend. I was the art director, make up and wardrobe person. Phil Lorin (Pixar) and Kiel Murray ( Pixar) wrote the fabulous script. Actors were such a pleasure to work with.
