Reece Scarpignato

My name is Reece Scarpignato. I'm a freelance filmmaker. I do a lot of different jobs, but during the course of kind of this time period, I was doing a lot of freelance gaffing and grip work. So what like a gaffer is for people who don't know, that's like a guy who's kind of in charge of lighting and electric in a very simplified way. There's a lot of like setting up lights

and then kind of sitting back and doing nothing. We're very much like the grunts of the film set, so we'll be moving stuff around, again, setting up lights, bounce cards, negative fill, all that stuff. Working as a freelancer in LA, you're kind of hopscotching from one project to the next.

You could be working with a very high-budget, very professional crew one day, and then the next day you're working on, like, a three-person music video, you know, shooting with camcorders and elevators and stuff. It's very unpredictable. There's everything from music videos, television shows, commercials, you know, passion projects, short films, interviews, you name it.

I did production design for a Teddy Swims music video recently. They showed clips of it at the Grammys a couple days ago, actually, which is really, really cool. But I've also worked on stuff where it's, you know, producer, actor, director, screenwriter, all in one. And, you know, it's kind of a bit of an ego show, I guess. Those are the ones you really have to watch out for.

I got brought onto this project through a good friend of mine who was the director, producer. We, you know, worked on a couple things before, but, you know, we're mostly just like friends outside of work. And she was like, oh, I've got this documentary. We're shooting in Sedona. We're going to be following some psychics. I was like, already, I'm in.

Like, we're interviewing like a bunch of psychics. Like, this is going to be super fun, funny, should be a really easy gig. doing some sit down interviews.

No, no, I didn't know. Like, cause I'm really not a spiritual, like I was into spirituality more as like entertainment. I never took it seriously. And so I didn't really like know about Sedona. If I had heard of Sedona, I think it was like, I was like, Oh, like, you know, it's probably just a bunch of, you know, white girls with crystals in the desert.
