    Cameras and drones and confusion OH MY!

    TEST SHOOT DAY! Today I finally took the new gear out for a spin — the drone and the Insta360 — and wow… this stuff is going to level up everything for the new “Cupp of Tea” era. My friend Ryan jumped in to help, and we spent the afternoon getting test shots, figuring out angles, lighting, and motion, and honestly just having fun learning the tools. This video is a compilation of some of the shots from the day — aerials, 360 sweeps, and some really cinematic moments as I start prepping for the bigger adventures ahead. I’m excited to master this equipment so that when I start biking across Europe, the footage will look incredible. This is just the beginning. If you’re ready to follow the journey — from London life to backpacking, cycling, filmmaking, and everything in between — make sure to subscribe and stay tuned. Something new is definitely brewing. Gear Used: • DJI Drone • Insta360 Camera • A lot of laughter + trial-and-error Thanks to Ryan for helping make this test day happen.

    Episode 2 - Performances That Taught Me

    In Episode 2 of The Cupp of Tea Podcast, I reflect on performances that have deeply impacted me. I emphasize the human aspect of performance, highlighting the courage and presence required to truly connect with an audience. These stories of my students, including Nikki and Tim's playful swing routine inspired by Castaway, Jennifer's wig mishap during a Bride of Frankenstein performance, and David's inspiring journey from a skiing accident to becoming a competitive dancer. Each story showcases the bravery, resilience, and authenticity of the performers, illustrating that memorable performances are not about perfection but about the emotional connection and growth experienced by both the performers and the audience.
