I just re-discovered a small cache of photographs I snapped on-set with writer Nick Mattos while filming "I Am Not Myself Today". They were soft focus , playful double exposures in a close intimate setting (or snapshots of the bloody clean-up post FX sequence.) Here's a few of my favorites.

An art piece by award-winning filmmaker Andrew Klaus I Am Not Myself Today explores the separation between the subjective sense of self as an artist and the objectivity expressed through one's work. I Am Not Myself Today is about the blurred lines between fact and fiction, experience and recreation. I Am Not Myself Today features writer Nick Mattos.
