The Daily Dark

" We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Oscar Wilde Let thu be welcomed to The Daily Dark, We live in a world of dark happenings, where the shadows dance without our knowledge of it. Art is the light that shines over us, either to show us the true nature of the shadows or to help us dance with them. Art is what makes the darkness of everyday life brighter-this blog is an entrance to what art is for me. I'm 19, a mexican studying communications in Spain in love with art, vampires and candy. Hope you enjoy my blog, if not, drop dead-sooner or later you'll have to so take no offense. love, M.

Winner of Best Director and Best Picture at Campus MovieFest - the world’s largest student film festival.

Never have I put in so much effort into a single short film. This project is the result of hundreds of hours of work from many people. Originally made for Campus MovieFest, this film is definitely the biggest scale and most ambitious project I’ve ever done. Watch in HD and with good/loud sound! If you have the chance, check out my other films too.

Filmed with a 5d mark ii camera with a 24-70mm lens on a steadicam merlin. We did 36 takes to get the right one. Morgan and I went running weeks before to get our cardio into shape for the shoot. Yes, the final film is all in one take.
