Lifeless TV show pilot



This past April, I spent 2 weeks working on a TV show pilot in downtown Salt Lake City. The show is called "Lifeless", and I think it is getting post production audio right now, so its almost ready to pitch to networks or whoever...

I was the 2nd AC, which stands for 2nd Assistant Camera. We used a small HD camera that doesn't record to tape, but to a little drive. Our 1st AC had to leave the shoot after just a few days because his sister was in a car accident, so I was also the 1st AC for much of the shoot.

Basically, I was really busy and had a blast. It was a great crew and the talent were really, well, talented. If all goes well, we'll be shooting a whole season in the Salt Lake area next year.

I threw a little bit of lyrics to music and turned my friend Phillip's band loose on it. The end result is a pretty decent TV theme song. Its a little too upbeat for the show, but quite a catchy song.

What a fun time.
Which one do you like best?  I personally like the James Bond feel of Phillip's arrangement.
