Please Forgive Me Jose Jones (5)
Jose Jones Castillo/ JJ / 29 (??) / Austin, TX / Photographer and Employee at Rooster Teeth Productions
I’ve been a fan of Rooster Teeth Productions for a few years now, and it’s basically my dream to work there. The company has been creating live-action shorts, live podcasts, animated shows, and various other projects since 2003. They are even working on their first feature length film, Lazer Team. All of these different projects have something to do with video games (their first animated series was made in Halo, they have an entire podcast dedicated to video games, and constantly report the latest and greatest video game news). I first learned about JJ’s photographic work by hearing about him; he was the editor in charge of a show dedicated to building mini-games in the game Minecraft (it just screams Inception doesn’t it? A game in a game, but we must go deeper) As he started to work on more projects in the company, directing and producing some recent live action shorts as well as the company’s weekly content update (dubbed the RT Recap), I found a lot of his photographic and film work online. He uses digital and 35mm cameras, black and white and color. No matter the medium, his work is always high quality and beautiful. I also love seeing just how much he is able to do as an independent filmmaker, and it inspires me to see just what I can do even as a freshman in college.
