One Man is a portfolio for a model displaying his skills. This short depicts how one person can work the camera.

I suggest 4 to 5 outfit changes to complete a Model Comp Card . I also suggest a few different locations coupled with some interesting props.

Talent agencies want Model Comp Cards to show a variety. In most cases a few lifestyle photographs and a strong headshot is the requirement.

This short is about a journey. Most young people in the United States of America dreams of backpacking through Europe, and that’s exactly what my brother and I did.

We stayed in Camden Town in Europe, took the Eurorail to Germany and France where we stopped to celebrate Christmas at the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris. Then off we went to Amsterdam for the New Years Eve celebration; and a celebration it was indeed.

Best trip ever!

The images were all obtained by the use of film and digital files were then created for the purpose of this short.

A life-like Zoetrope fills the room while rays of light tell the story. ‘ -ah

Doors is a story of a woman’s journey in finding her inner self. She looks for love but finds pain. There is a struggle, but in the end a quiet peace is discovered as she stands alone.

The doors mirror the layers that she went through to find her answers and herself.

The actual photographing was a process in itself requiring two different shooting spaces.

My garage is where all the people were initially photographed. My home became the second studio, where a hallway of five doors met my lens. Projections of everyone I photographed starting to fall into place once I was able to see them together on the doors. A life like Zoetrope filled the room while rays of light told the story.

This was a difficult story to tell, I had done it all backwards so to speak. First I took the portrait images, then arranged them in groups photographing them again as one picture on the doors. The story had to be exact or the images would not work together. In the end, this compilation came alive using no digital alterations.

It Ain’t Nothing But A Chinga Dera

Ain't Nothin But A Chinga Dera

Compadre

It Aint’ Nothing But A Chinga Dera is a look into the life of an amazing man, Demo. This story takes you into his center, where passion and love coupled with fire and envy will be bestowed upon you. For his life is a great life.

This story is a documentary of ‘a day in the life of Demo. Though it had been a work in progress for many years, it signifies one day. A day for which any of the other 364 days in the year could also reflect.

Strong unity surrounds him, created by family and friends. He is a compadre to many and loved by all.

One way in which Demo shares love is through his talent of cooking. The first night I met him he gave me a plate of his cooking. I had never tasted anything so succulent and delicious. That was the beginning of a beautiful friendship, one which I still cherish to this day.

In dedication to my friend Demo, I bring you this story. From his heart, to my heart, to your heart. Yours truly, Alicia
