Hawaiian Jeff Lam (@angryasianguy) has been working in show business in Los Angeles for almost a decade now. Since he joined Twitter two years ago, he’s been sharing images from various sets and shoots. Last night, he posted this shot. I don’t know what movie or TV show this scary fellow might appear on, but I’m sure @angryasianguy will let us know on Twitter.
Searching for Twitter pictures from Southern California invariably unearths photos of people in costume for film and television shoots. But a few weeks ago, Will Batts (@hiphopxyz) shared this picture of a city dressed up for the cameras. Los Angeles was made to look like New York for an episode of CSI: NY. You see, Batts is a set designer for the investigative law enforcement TV franchise. Batts also calls himself a “rapper for aliens” and a “virtual graffiti artist.” I’ll be featuring his graff art here tomorrow, but if you want to hear the alien hip hop, you’ll have to visit his MySpace page.
Eight years ago, Studio City visual artist Vishwanand “V” Shetti directed a short film titled “The Consequence of Ethical Rebellion.” James Brook created the 3D alien from Planet X in that short. V tweeted about the alien and shared this still image when he ran into Brook’s sister. If you want to see the alien in its many colors, make sure to check out the video and subscribe to V on Vimeo while you’re at it. You can follow V on Twitter @Vishwanand.
