ON CAMERA

This Old House at Tyler Perry Studios

After being behind the scenes for so many years I was so honored when one of the longest running DIY Shows: “This Old House” visited Tyler Perry Studios & asked me to show a few techniques that Scenic Artists use in productions.

It was great to step in front of the camera and show some of the work that goes into movie magic!
