I Love Videos!

correa & bartoletti from Patrick Richardson Wright on Vimeo.

I know I posted a show flier and then photos from Nick/Franks art show. But my friend Patrick Wrights Video is now completed from the night and blows me away. Proud to be in this and have a motion picture memory of such a fun night. Enjoy!

Winner's Circle Presents The Making Of A T-Shirt from Winners Circle on Vimeo.

Also helped snap a few photos for my buddy's JR and Pheed for a short little video they just made showing what really goes into Making a T Shirt. From concept to sale. Enjoy!

Last but not least, my friends BUTTS (Rachel & Shannon) have released a video for their song Panty Exchange. Done by the talented and hilarious Carlos Lopez. Definitly an epic worth the watch!

B.A.B.Y & Binary

Nashid aka ONEBELO, formally of Binary Star has become a good friend of mine over the years. Thanks to meeting him through some mutual friends about 5 or 6 years back he became the first musician I ever took a portrait of. We have since shot over 5 different portrait sessions and I have gotten to travel to Michigan to see his home town. This week my buddy Patrick and I will be shooting a music video for his new Album B.A.B.Y (Being a Black Youth). I really think this album could be his best work to date and am excited to create a visual to match the themes and mood of the album. Its a really positive piece of music that shows Lo's evolving skill on the mic but more importantly his ties to community, world problems, and helping youth.

Ill be posting the video when we finish but for now here are a few old photos of him I still really enjoy as well as the flier for this weekends Binary Star show. If you never caught the group in their prime come out to nectar for this rare chance to see the duo performing. Could be the last time it happens in Seattle.

Inspiration

I think staying inspired is always important.. Wanted to post up a Music Video as well as a few photos that are blowing my mind this evening. (Top Photo By Aron Gent) The Music Video was shot entirely on a Cannon 5D Mark 2 DSLR, edited, tracked and composited in a normal post workflow. Then, every other frame, some 4305 of them, were printed out, crumpled up, spray mounted in stacks, and then reshot on homemade animation stands. A month of long nights, razor cuts, toxic fumes, and a terrabyte of stills later, we came out with this." Video directed by the Humble Collective
