It's great to see your work, Dustin James Leighton. 'The Dark Action' is an engaging micro short film, and I appreciate your dedication to filmmaking. Good luck!!

Thanks so much, Maura! And Julia, I appreciate that. I use old tungsten lights vs modern led. I feel like it gives the image a classic, saturated look/feel.
About Me
I left home at 17 and moved to Mt. Vernon, NY, with the dream of becoming a full-time artist. Starting out in a work-scholarship program as the janitor at Broadway Dance Center, I slowly built a career as an actor and voice actor. I sustained this for many years, but always harbored a fascination with being behind-the-camera. After years of shooting stills on the side, I rolled the dice and applied to the ASC’s first commercial masterclass. With a stroke of luck, I was accepted. From that date forward I embarked upon a journey to refine my light shaping skills, a passion I now pour my heart into daily. Humble. Kind. Here to serve.
