The Acorn - For the Sake of My Pride
Title (optional)
what exactly would you like to hear from me? that everything will be ok?
OK’s are fair game for waiters and people that want to sell something.
“hey so is everything ok here? you save any room for dessert?”
most days the rate at which the world turns requires more inertia than my legs can muster, but don’t we all get a twitch of this? don’t we all feel our...

Filling the Void: Amsterdam for the Week
Heading to Amsterdam for the week, found a cheap flight and hostel, and with a half dozen friends there this week it’s easier to be a tourist with other tourists.
Any recommendations, thoughts, or ideas?
The Turtles - It Ain’t Me Babe
Reflecting, Refining, Refocusing
The irony of travel isn’t lost on me. Most travel is sold or pitched as relaxing, exciting, and adventuresome and new. I’ve never bought into this cult, I’m not really into theme parks or cruises or anything overly manufactured or manicured being the key to me getting a travel fix. (although those hedge sculptures at Disney parks are INSANE)
What people want and eventually do...

It May Seem Obvious
Other than the obvious challenges of moving to a new place, moving to Europe and moreso Italy has some aspects that I didn’t think I’d experience.
The way of life is their art, it is their culture, and in many ways it is their greatest export - or at least an extension of it. A Professor said that shoes and watches are still status symbols to this day because of the importance they...

Erica your videos have gotten really good! Shooting on the rebel is really captivating too.
This series is a neat catharsis of sorts, chronicling the changes in her life, locale, and the people around her. Congrats!
Perfection comes in small doses
Do you eat a pizza pie in one bit?
Do you live a life in one day?
Can one breath sustain you forever?
In the angst and frustration that comes with trying to make sense of a life outside of the norm I find that occasionally life gives me exactly what I need - no more no less.
Living in Italy is teaching me not only to be patient - how American - but to savor and enjoy that which life brings,...

IKEA HEIGHTS
An Ikea furniture store melodrama created for Channel101.com. This started as a silly idea Del, Dan Riesser and I joked about wandering through IKEA over a year ago. And now it’s a real thing, thanks to the Rebel T1i and wireless lav mics. Shot one afternoon at the IKEA in Burbank.

Buongiorno!
I slouch exhausted in a sun drenched bibleoteca, reeling from an amazing and challenging weekend on the South coast of Italy, and ready for the week that lay before me. Today is a national holiday in Italia - complete with marching bands, military, state and local police and fire marching through the town square and even the Prime Minister’s designate to the region of Tuscany. I’m no...
