He was the primary videographer on the first three Girl films - Goldfish, Las Nueve Vidas De Paco and MOUSE. In fact, Tim filmed all of Guy Mariano’s part in MOUSE, and that part remains to be recognized as one of the best if not the best street parts of all time.

Aaron Meza
Info:
Aaron Meza grew up in the San Francisco Bay area skating and filming the likes of Mike Carroll, Scott Johnston, and Keith Hufnagel etc. Early in his career he was known for his cinematic contributions to the FTC videos. FTC is one of the few shops to produce a video, largely to the fact of their team rooster mainly hailing from San Francisco’s bay area.
It was only natural for Aaron to be on of the main contributors to all the Girl productions being is close friends with the team ever since and before Girl started back in 1993. Currently he is still involved with the Girl camp and I'm sure well be hard at work with Ty on the production of the upcoming Chocolate video.Cinematography:
