This show was phenomenal. They played all of their second album, Thirteenth Step. We shot the first five songs for Last Call, and Josh G cut this version of The Noose; so good. I was in the crowd, near the front left, mostly on silhouette-cam of Maynard, James Iha, and Matt McJunkins the bass player. Here’s somebody’s upload of it.

Danny Boyle is the awesome director of Slumdog Millionaire, Trainspotting, and now 127 Hours, among others obviously. I was on his closeup for this interview.

Me, Pete, and Hammer (dir) on 7Ds in Canada for Last Call. Produced by LiamG. Edited within a couple days of return by CO Los Dos!

Wicked cool piece about the guy who does the score for True Blood.

Joe Lamattina directed, shot, and edited the segment for Last Call with Carson Daly (NBC-Universal).

I was basically B-camera, tight. As usual, we shot on the Canon 7D.

This is the news report/documentary that I produced and edited on over the summer.  It’s about the ongoing effort to change East Los Angeles from an unincorporated county-run area to a locally-controlled city.  Please enjoy, whilst learning a thing or two!

And here’s a little background on the project.  It was an assignment for Daniel Weintraub’s California policy website, HealthyCal.org.  It’s part of his larger series on areas that lack a political voice.

As We Enter is my new favorite song. It’s the first one on the new Nas and Damian Marley album, Distant Relatives. Fortunately for me, I was introduced to it live, shooting a secret show at the Roxy for Last Call with Carson Daly.

Parks and Recreation Director Ron Swanson is the funniest new TV character I can think of. Nick Offerman, the actor, also builds things like canoes at his woodshop.

Pete Alton and I were on the two Canon 7Ds. Dee Nichols and Field Producer Mike Hammer Hammeke were on the other cameras, which I think were an HVX and a DVX. And Joe Lamattina was the editor!! Directed by Rich Bond. Parks and Rec is on NBC Thursday nights. Last Call with Carson Daly is on weeknights at 1:35, after Jimmy Fallon.
