Bryan Cranston: Video Portrait

By michael lavine in

Ten years ago I shot the cast of Malcolm In The Middle and my most vivid memory of the shoot was how hilarious the dad was to work with. When I was asked to shoot Bryan Cranston for NYM at first I didnt recognize the name but after a checking on IMDB I soon realized that the crazy meth dealer on Breaking Bad was also Malcolm’s dad! Fortunately Bryan was still crazy after all those years and the shoot was a blast. We even had time to make a quick mock book cover that Bryan took onto the DAILY SHOW with Jon Stewart. The video that we made came on the heels of the photoshoot and I will be the first to admit that its a challenge to do both photo and video at the same time, but I think it came out alright. Thank you Bryan Cranston!!!
