fun times!

so far this past week has been one of the most intense editing weeks ive ever had, it started with the north face mike piece and the electrofy piece that i posted up in the previous entry. since then ive done 2 more north face edits, got signed up to do another rave promo and am currently working on an msi promo that is due thursday and a nice easy f stop camera bag edit that will be ready for viewing sometime tomorrow. after i get through this ill have a few more majorca pieces to get done as well as another party edit that i shot this past halloween weekend...this is resulting in a complete fuckup in my sleeping schedule, but i do not freaking care because this work is awesome! and here you go with some foot care from nikki booyaka!

***NOTE*** the electrofy video will soon be up again, at the request of the guy in charge i had to make a few minor changes... probably like a day or two for this to take effect...
its been a great topic of discussion as of late...what makes it so that nearly every photo/video/designer guy i talk to all swear by the fact of working through the night...right now i can think of about 5 guys who do this habit...its a bad one but whatever gets the job done right? anyway, this week has been intense! so far i have done up 3 videos and get them on the vimeo account. tomorrow i will go into the studio to hopefully wrap up another north face video and then after that ill be getting started on a promo video for MSI for their upcoming freeski world tour..aaand i just got an email cashing in on another promo i owe one of the rave guys ive been doing business with lately...fun stuff hey...brazilian bold has been the 711 coffee of choice these last few nights.

onto the videos so far...

Sitting in the airport in Belem, Brazil at the moment. Just got done with a freaking awesome time in the jungle shooting with The North Face crew for some spring product being used in the Jungle Marathon event. The idea behind the shoot is actually pretty pimp. Now with any shot out of the thing you know the authenticity factor is through the roof because these aren't just simple studio style shoots where the person poses for the camera but almost all the action shots were taken while the athletes were doing the different stages of the race. Shit got intense during it as well! By the day i left (day 4 out of 6) about a third had already dropped out with a few being taken to the ICU at local hospitals and one actually going into a 40 hour coma! The North Face is legit..bottom line. Here you go with a video we made for kind of the start of a storyline were working on coming from the trip. Also I added a few quick still frame captures from random video clips. Buuunches more to come!

got a few vids for you all. seems ive been getting into the promo bizz. stuff is kind of weird since you basically start off with an ad for the event and nothing else. luckily for me, i have quite a collection of older shows i can go and grab random crowd shots and other miscellaneous shots in attempts to make the show to come look sweet. funny thing about the two promos is also that they location they are being held at is brand new as well, aka never had shows there before..we'll see how that turns out i guess. the first show will be on october 3rd and the second will be on the 9th. "unfortunately" i wont be in town for the second show since im headed down to brazil to go help tim kemple to go shoot a jungle marathon down there. absurdly excited on that piece! anyway, this might just be the longest written piece of done on the blog and you are more than likely over reading it. bring on the videos!

hey hey! through the last sublime sundaze party some people took note and contacted me about this little jam they arranged. apparently the whole thing was conceived and executed in a bit over a week but they sure did a bang up job for a fun day in the sun! they are looking into having one more before the legitimate fall season steps in and then continuing it next spring/summer as well.
