A standby painter is a Grips best friend. Sad to see fewer and fewer on sets these days. It is truly an art that must be practiced and passed down to preserve. Not everything can or should be ‘fixed in post’. Do it right. Hire the right people. Don’t trip over dollars to pick up pennies. ————— #setlife #iatselocal80 #bestboygrip #indiefilm #independentfilm #local729 #iatse #filmla #savehollywood #filmca

The @thelightbridge CRLS are undeniably brilliant. Shame about the price, but that’s this business. If budget weren’t an issue, I’d definitely want a set of these on every job. ————- #setlife #keygrip #clrs #lightbridge #filmla #commercial

An empty stage. Endless possibilities. Infinite email threads. Meetings that could have been emails. Emails that could have been texts. Texts that could have been notes scrawled on $100 bills and used to buy sushi. ———— #prep #setlife #iatselocal80grips #bestboygrip #filmla #savehollywood #filmmaking

Bessie the pro-labor cow and I are sending all the love and solidarity out to my brothers and sisters in the room today with the AMPTP negotiating our Local 80 craft-specific contract. I’m sad I wasn’t able to join you all in the room this cycle, but I’m so proud of all the work we’ve done leading up to this week. All the training from @iatse the town-halls, CAT teams, surveys and lively and engaged member discussions. 2024 is FOR THE MEMBERS! 💪 ———— #setlife #unionstrong #iatsestrong #iatselocal80 #iatse #union #losangeles #contractnegotiation #local80grips
