n the last two years, I’ve had four films get nominated for best picture and/or best director at the festivals they have been at half of them have won so far. Three of them have theatrical distribution(so you will see them soon), and what I’m most proud of is the range of all of them, Teenage Love Story, A Political Science drama, a Hijacked Airline Adventure, and Prison Reform/Transgender Story. I really love my job lensing for directors who have a story to tell. Angela, Lisa, Tom and AJ, what an honor. So proud of all of you. #bestdirector #bestpicture #featurefilm--Leonidas Jaramillo

Film Slang

"John Ford"- A technique where an actor walks toward the camera (downstage) in the course of a long take eventually walking into his own close-up. Director John Ford was know for utilizing this technique for dramatic effect and to eliminate the need for additional shots. John Ford is THE preeminent director of the classic cowboy film. You should immediately rent "The Searchers" (starring John Wayne) to see a truly great director in action.
