Aristocratic Huntress

Hey all! It's been a while since I posted anything but I am back, alive and well.  I just finished these pieces for a friend of mine, Constantine Sekeris. He is releasing a new concept art book of his work called MetamorFX and I highly recommend that you check it out!  It is available on Amazon.com and will be released very soon.  This is my take on an Aristocratic Princess on a hunting trip.  I did one version that is more geared toward her being in the field really getting her hands dirty and one version that is more demure and lady like.  Enjoy!!!

Zip Fizz Commercial with Josie Bissett

Go out and try some Zip Fizz today....they did not pay me to say that. I had a lot of fun on this one. Getting the timing of all those elements was tricky but it worked out great! Now, if I could only get rid of all this orange stuff left over from the shoot that is now in my kitchen...geez.

Also, check out the cool 360 view of the behind the scenes from the guys over at Social Animal. VERY COOL!!! See if you can spot yours truly:

GE Capitol/Taylor Guitars Commercial

I did this commercial a while back with the very talented Director Josh Nussbaum. The shoot was 3 days and nine locations including the Taylor Guitar headquarters in San Diego! Intense but I enjoyed every minute of it. Maybe I will take up playing the guitar....maybe.

Riverwind Casino Commercial

Thanks to Brian Welsh and Soundis for this one. Also big thanks to Austin Lovall for all the hard work as usual. Commercials are a whole lot of fun. We shot on green screen and I had to build set pieces for the actors.

I can't embed this one just yet so for now, enjoy it here:

I can't take credit for all the graphics however. :) Enjoy...

Kris Allen: The Truth

Teamed up with the Franchise kid Aaron Platt once again for this one. What a shoot! We were rained out in a lightening storm the first time and had to reshoot a week later. It was hot as hell one minute and pouring the next! Still managed to be one of the most beautiful videos I have been a part of. Thanks to the whole production team, my amazing Art Department (Hawk, I owe you) and Kris Allen who has some pretty cool fans. :)

A while back, I designed some music videos for kick-ass Director Shane Drake and mega producer Brandon Bonfiglio. Here is the end result of that pairing. We have two videos from a band called "The Almost" and one video from a group called "Honor Society". If you watch the behind the scenes of the making of the honor society video, you might just recognize someone. Enjoy. lol
