So I said I would fill you in on the Criss Angel (the man behind A&E's hugely successful Mindfreak) shoot for the pilot "Short Scoots on Long Island" and here I go.

Eduardo from Extremedigi embraced the idea and I had a crew. To be continued... Tonight we shoot at Long Island Water Jet for a Custom Corner segment. log on and let me know what you think of the new photo gallery I'm working on. In the Wind, Fingers
