Lauren + JP - The Wedding Video

UPDATE: After Ashton Kutcher tweeted about this video as "the best wedding video ever", this video spread virally like crazy! It's been loaded on web pages over 1 million times, and played in it's entirety about 250K times! Crazy!

I'm so pleased to post my first wedding music video! Lauren and JP could not have been a better fit as far as artistic collaborators go.  Their creative sensibilities are wide ranging, and they immediately grasped the concept of what I wanted to, which was to create a music video more-so than a wedding video.  Granted, the subject matter is their wedding.  It's simply cut to one of their favorite songs ever.  (Sleepyhead by Passion Pit). 

I'd love to know what you think!

I had fun shooting this little 'live-ish' video.  This was shot during their soundcheck and a live performance that night, so I opted for more of a documentary style aesthetic to the video.  The whole video was shot using a 7D, and the audio was captured using a Zoom Q3. 

If you haven't seen a WG shot yet, try to make it out.  It's a blast!

Bright Lights Big City by Heavy Mojo

I am very proud of this video.  I think it delivers the same over-the-top kinetic energy of an actual Heavy Mojo show, which is no small feat.  This was certainly not a solo effort.  Many thanks to:

• Eric De Fino (of Raygun.com).  450 or so edits on a 4 minute song.  That about sums it up.  He's an editing wizard. Thanks bro!
• Ryan Rodinis (also of Raygun) for his help finalizing the video when under deadline.
• Marc, Barbara, Hans, and company for assisting on set.

The Four Horsemen by The Whiskey Gentry

This is my first music video that I produced, shot and edited.  “Four Horsemen” is a gentle ballad about heartache, longing, and the slow creep of deep emotions that are easier felt than explained. Our goal was simple: we wanted to make a beautiful video, for a beautiful song, sung by a beautiful woman.

The Coathangers - Tanya Harding

I don't exactly know why I forgot to post this when I built this website last year. In any event, The Coathangers have a new record out, so it reminded of this little video we did. This was shot in couple of locations, with my Canon 5D. All the images were stitched together in post, sycn'd to the music and wa-la! If only I'd the 5D II had been out then! Enjoy...
