"WILD WILD WEST”
Shot in beautiful Almería, Spain. Home of a westerns town built and made famous by Spaghetti Westerns, such as “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.” It was “awesome,” “very cool,” and “beautiful.”

“BOAT PARTY”
Sure, let’s shoot on a real multi-million dollar boat. I personally had to convince the client as to why we needed the three story yacht versus the two story one. Her name was Zulu. The boat, not the client.
“iPHONE META”
Pulled this unaired spot from the vault and brought her back to life because I loved it so much.
“BIG BABY”
Baby, baby, baby, ohhh…
“SQUIRREL FRIEND”
“EVERYTHING TURBO w/ DANNY TREJO”
Everything you’ve heard about Trejo is true. He’s a total sweetheart and just absolutely loves to be on set and working. My favorite quote from the day, “Let’s shoot it! God hates cowards.”
“LEPRECASHIER”
We got super lucky that a real rainbow appeared during filming on this one, like, literally through the window ending at our scratch-offs. That is a totally true statement.
"BACKYARD” + “COFFEE CAN”
Producer, “Hey Raúl, there’s a funeral home in New Mexico that wants to make funny commercials about death.”
Raúl, “I’m in.”
"DOWNSIZING"
This project was done on spec since I had the location and gear available from a commercial we shot the day before. The actor and I wrote the entire script as we shot. We were also the only crew. Lunch at Subway was the most expensive part of this production.
The baby in the photograph is my friend's son. He was a really fat baby.
