Los Angeles born and bred, Rick attended Chatsworth High School in the
early 70's. The only son of Cecil and Addy Lord, Rick moved to the
Pacific Northwest in 1977 to break into the burgeoning Portland movie
scene. After years of banging around in the Northwest film market, Rick
founded the motion picture support company, Cinestar Grip Support
Services. Since moving away from grip and lighting equipment rental,
Rick has worked his way around the camera from Actor to Gaffer to
Director of Photography. With over a thousand TV commercials and
numerous short and independent feature films under his belt, Rick has
since authored two books that deal with both, Motion Picture Lighting
for Still Photography and Independent Filmmaking from a Gaffer's
Perspective. As a Producer and Director of Photography, Rick now spends
his time working on independent films for the ever demanding
independent film market in Oregon.
