Selected Timelapse, Documentary & Video Work

CONSTRUCTION TIMELAPSE

Year-Long Build Timelapse for a Downtown LA Development

Set up and maintained a fixed timelapse rig on a downtown Los Angeles construction site for just over a year, capturing the build from groundbreaking through topping out. Camera checks, lens cleaning, and storage swaps happened on a weekly schedule to keep the sequence unbroken.

Outcome: Delivered an unbroken year-long sequence used for the developer's investor updates and the building's opening event.

DOCUMENTARY SHORT

Three-Part Documentary Following LA Independent Makers

Filmed a three-part documentary short following independent makers working out of small studios around Los Angeles. Shot handheld with minimal crew over several weeks to stay out of the way and let each subject's process speak for itself.

Outcome: Series screened at a local community event and picked up by two of the makers for their own sites.

Los Angeles skyline at dusk
"The timelapse turned out better than we imagined. A year of construction, condensed into something we could actually show investors and use at the opening." — Project Manager, Downtown LA Development · Construction Timelapse
"We didn't expect the documentary to capture things so honestly. It felt like our story, told the way it actually happened, not staged for a camera." — Studio Owner, LA Maker · Documentary Series
"The skyline footage was exactly what we needed for our own project. Clean handoff, no back and forth, and it looked great cut into our final piece." — Video Editor, Local Production Company · Licensed Timelapse Footage
"Event day can get chaotic, but the coverage was steady and the turnaround was fast. We had a highlight reel up within a week." — Organizer, Local Business Opening · Event Coverage
"You can tell the difference when someone actually understands the technical side of a long shoot. The rig never missed a beat for months." — Site Manager, Construction Client · Build Timelapse
