Shot in Portland last may, with an insanely short amount of prep time.

Shot by the mighty Shawn Kim, tag-team edited by the infamous Paul Hardcastle & Gus Herdman @ Trim, graded by the dreadlocked Paul Harrison @ MPC. Music by Michael Fakesch of Funkstörung.

Just shot a new film for Wrangler out in Wilmington, North Carolina, which is the home of Iron Man 3, Dawson’s Creek, a snake infested river, a couple haunted bed & breakfasts, some tiny poneys, and some more unforgettable stuff.

Won’t be out till July (sad face), but the one i shot for Wrangler 6 months ago is out next month (relieved face).

In other news, my brother’s been killing it on his tour (innit) and making people jump …

Just back from Buenos Aires where I shot a really fun US spot for Honey Bunches of Oats.The meat was tender, the malbec was hardcore, the cast and crew were top notch, and we shot on the set of Amas de Casa Desperadas, aka the latino Desperate Housewives…

So overall, an awesome experience.

Quizz question – in the pic below taken from the spot, what is the woman so excited about?

Heres a link to my new video for General Elektriks. Really happy with how this one turned out. Labour of love.

Summer aint here no more, but, emmm, its a metaphor, dude.

Made a new General Elektriks video ! Coming soon …

Busy couple of months. I shot a new spot for Ebay in April, with the Stinky Berlin office & DDB Dusseldorf – picture below. Huge set build, with a complicated camera move. Didnt sleep much that month, but the spot is quite fun. Will post the anglo version in a couple of days.

Also, check out this MAKING OF if you wanna see me acting like I know whats up.

Then flew to Portland, Oregon a couple weeks ago to shoot a film for Wrangler via Stink Digital. Portland is exactly like its portrayed in Portlandia.

I usually try not to generalise, but if someone held a gun to my head and asked me to summarize Portland in 5 themes, I would probably go for these = tattoos, rain, good food, flannel, gus van sant. (and the strange concept of « hipster strip clubs » as a wild card)

London, then Berlin, then Dusseldorf, then Paris, then Prague, then London, then Paris.

Not a very planet friendly job. (sad face)

(March 2011)

Heres the directors cut from a campaign i just did for Axa France.

Important facts:

a) rigging actors upside down is not a good idea
b) rigging stuntmen upside down is not really a good idea either
c) Hotel Josef in Prague has a nice breakfast fresh fruit bar.

And heres a spot i did for Nescafe via Publcis Paris in the fall.

Important facts:

a) the spaceman was Daniel Craigs stunt double in Casino Royale
b) shooting helicopter shots is really fun but also makes you vomit
c) the guy in the opening shot looks black but hes actually from Mongolia (what the hell was he doing in Prague?)

(Dec/Jan 2011)

So i shot 5 spots for PS3 in Tokyo in August, with WK. Heres a directors cut that combines 3 of the spots.

Also shot this spot for Canon over the summer, with Skunk & Dentsu New York.

Heading back eastward next week, for my 3rd Prague shoot this fall. This one is for Axa France with Publicis Paris.
