Here’s a looping version of just the 30-second motion spot.  No music.  Just the image.

This was an a still and motion ad for the Fiat Abarth car, which is running in this months ESPN magazine.  It was my first attempt at doing my compositing style in motion.  Here is a behind-the-scenes look at how we shot it.  

Because they needed a huge print version as well as the moving version, we had to shoot with Phantom cameras along side Hasselblad and Canon still cameras, shooting mostly with hot lights (because we didn’t have time for two lighting setups).  It was a challenge, but was a lot of fun.  I’m hoping we get to push this style even further!

I just finished up a collaboration with the upcoming film The Amazing Spiderman and Sony’s NEX cameras. I shot this entire ad with the little NEX 5n camera. Users can submit themselves to be a part of the mural online (link below). Pretty cool. Check out the website and also the behind-scenes-videos below!

The Vanity Fair Hollywood issue is finally out!  The center spread is my 3 page Fiat ad.  We had only 9 days, from the time we got the job to the time the final composite was due.  With a lot of help and many sleepless nights, here it is!

The Reflector screening was so fun!  Thank you all for coming out and supporting independent film making!  We are going to enter the film in a bunch of festivals and hopefully then release it for sale online sometime early next year.  Stay tuned!

Here are some random iPhone pics from the past 2 weeks of our trip.  We are now starting week #3 of our road-trip around Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and South Africa.  So far we had a ton of fun and some not so fun times (getting our car stuck 3 times now).  We’ve met a lot of nice people.  Very few un-friendly people (guy from South Africa who waived me down and told me I was driving too fast on the dirt roads, we flew past your Range Rover!).  Anyway, I can’t wait to get my film developed and show you all some new pics!  Now we are headed down into South Africa for a few more weeks.  Talk soon!
