Saddleback Civil Forum #2

Here are some photos I took tonight at the Civil Forum on Reconciliation hosted by Rick and Kay Warren with President Paul Kagame of the Republic of Rwanda and Yale Professor Miroslav Volf in the Saddleback Church Worship Center.

"The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry" Movie Opening

Earlier today, I saw the screening of "The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry"; an inspirational Christian film based on a true story that stars Gavin MacLeod of "The Love Boat" and Robert Guillaume of "Benson" as well as a cast of great young actors. The film was written, produced and directed by Rich Christiano.

On the set of "Air Force Elite"

I had the opportunity this month to work once again with my old friend Producer/Director Paul Emami on the set of "Air Force Elite" produced by Marker Entertainment. The shoot was at the Blue Cloud Movie Ranch in Saugus. The ex-military guys playing the American soldiers said it was easy because 1) they weren't fully loaded down with their heavy equipment packs, 2) it was "only 100 degrees" compared to the even hotter temperatures they were used to fighting in and, 3) even though gun fire was audible in the scenes, they weren't actually getting shot at....... The scenes recreated a battle that took place in Afghanistan.
