We recently shot an episode of CNN International’s Global Challenges that focused on global warming. CNN brought in actress Daryl Hannah to host the show. Shoots were in Monterey CA and Vancouver Canada on this week long project.

Daryl was fun to work with and showed great promise as a show host. She is currently spending lots of time working on her video blog that deals with issues of protecting and preserving the planet. Check out her blog at www.dhlovelife.com

On the set of Corkscrewed (working for McWilliams Productions)- New Fox Reality Show

The producers of American Idol and other huge TV shows bought a winery with their hard earned cash. Then they found out things were not right in the wine business at thier new ranch(lost contracts, rodents, dead owls, and so on). So they decided to make a reality show out of their travails. They were a couple of very funny guys to interview.

Interviewing Jim Marshall (working for McWilliams Productions)(icon photographer for many years in rock and roll) for an upcoming documentary called “27″ which deals with the legends of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison.

The Virgin America launch of their new airplane nicknamed after the legendary SF band “Jefferson Airplane” . Gov Schwarzeneggar, Mayor Newsom, and Grace Slick on hand for the ceremony.
