Shooting with "MJ"
Hey guys, these last couple of months have been a strange
one for me. Lately I have found myself being both extremely happy and
sad at the same time.
What's the happy part?
I received my "Epic" camera last month and it's absolutely incredible. What is an Epic camera? It's an innovative digital cinema camera by the "Red" company. In fact, Red was a company that my uncle Michael was very fond of. We would talk about them over the phone and especially their upcoming cameras. He felt that Jim and his company were trailblazers and that one day they would overcome the big guys. I don't have to tell you that he was right, like always.
Here is a photo of my uncle with the Red one camera.
Knowing my uncle, he probably loved every minute behind the camera.
Which brings me to the sad part. Ever since I got my Epic camera, I've been finding myself depressed. Why? Because my uncle would have been the first person I would have called on the phone to tell about my new "Epic". He would have been so happy for me, ....for us. I can hear him now, asking "when are we gonna shoot something together with it?". The hard reality is, now I never will be able to.
Anyway, in honor of my uncle, I have decided to name my Epic camera, "MJ".
That way everytime I turn on the camera to shoot something or press the record button, I will be thinking of my uncle Michael, and the way he inspired me and will continue to inspire me.
In a way, I will be shooting with " michael jackson "

"HOLD MY HAND" was the last song my uncle Michael every
played to me in person. He was SO PROUD OF IT. I'll never forget that
smile he had on his face as the song played through the speakers (in his
room) at the Palms Hotel in Vegas. After the song was over, he asked me
what I honestly thought of it. I told him it was a worldwide number one
song and that it was going to be a huge. He was so happy to hear that.
I did give the song one slight criticism though. I told my uncle that he needed to be singing more in the chorus and at the end of the song... lol. I said that we (the fans) would want to hear his voice more. :-)
"Hold my Hand" will be officially released tomorrow, November 15th. I'm definitely excited to buy it as soon as it becomes available knowing that the moment I play it, I will instantly remember the day my uncle first played it to me. It's these memories of him that I hold on to and cherish with all my heart. Words can't express how much I love and miss my uncle Michael.
