Pomona College

It was my first time taking the MetroLink over the weekend. I made my way from Downtown LA to Claremont and met with Greg at Pomona College to prepare for this week's event. Q&A and AARC of the Pomona College invited Malaya Project to their campus and put an event together. Some images from the series will be displayed at the student gallery from March 11-15. There will also be a panel discussion lead by Barangay LA on March 14th with a few of the series participants. Check out Barangay LA's event invite for more information.

The train ride itself wasn't so bad. Seats for comfortable and the cars were spacious. A friend told me that they also have a small cafeteria that serves alcohol but I was worried of getting too sloshed and missing my stop. The view gets better once the train is out of the city. I will definitely have to take the coastal one next time with Amado.

ELEV8 Shoot BTS

Some behind the scenes from an ELEV8 shoot I did a few weeks back. Had a great time with the group. I can't wait to see the new site.

Behind-The-Scenes Videos

Greg and I collaborate for Malaya Project. Besides the photo essays, we try to shoot short videos to accompany the posts. It pushed me to want to learn more about shooting videos. There's obviously more to it than just picking up a camera and hitting record. A couple of weeks ago, we worked on a behind-the-scenes video for a designer's Spring 2013 line shoot. This was the longest shoot I've been in video wise and I definitely learned a lot that day.

Here are two edits that Greg worked on.
