Thoughts & Perspective An insight to the mind of Darrick Lazo

Posting to Post

Its been quite sometime since I've had a chance to write up a post, so here goes a quick little blurb, though I know little to no one reads these... it just felt about right to randomly have my thoughts out there. This last month has bee pretty busy with work and family. I'm free of the retail environment and now have a day to devote on working on creative projects, and doing things that I need to be doing - like spending time with the people I care about. Tragedy has struck around me yet again, and though you might not know that person very well, seeing your friends enduring that pain hurts too. Empathy is something that I had learned the meaning of, but hadn't really began to truly understand until this year. I've learned to really live in the moment, enjoy life, not to worry, and tell the people you love - that you love them. I know this post is a best, all over the place - but it's nice to put things like that out there. On the lighter side of life, I'm really looking forward to push hard towards my goals, both new and old, all the while making lasting impressions and some good friends.

Apple Certified Pro

After some rigorous cramming I passed the Final Cut Pro 7 Level One certification exam.  I'm hoping this will expand my resume and land me more 'gigs.'  Pass the word onto all your friends, family, and colleagues in need of some post work, cause it's official - I'm now certified (on top of the BA in Cinema and Television Arts in the Film Production Option with an Emphasis on Post).  Avid and FCP aren't too different, just terms - price, power. All the same idea - its what the editor/artist do that really makes the difference.

Staying Busy…

Laguna Beach, CA at dawn

It has been quite sometime since I've last updated my site, the above photo is my first attempt at HDR photography.  Much to my surprise I am very please with the results.  I've been staying rather busy filling my time with studying up for the Apple Final Cut Pro 7 exam and shooting the Wedding Photos (which will soon be posted).  The wedding photos were a great opportunity for me to flex some creative energy, resulting in the above photo... More to come...
