The spot is now live http://EDdirects.com/nike.php

I played lots of basketball as a kid.  I was fast but man was I short.  I remember this one kid in 8th grade who could dunk from what seemed like the free throw line.  He could flat out fly.

ny times spot

You can check out the finished spot here: eddirects.com/nytimes.php

I had a paper route when I was a boy growing up in Southern California.  I loved being alone on the streets during those early mornings.  Hearing the birds chirping, feeling the wind on my face and the excitement of pedaling along effortlessly while making money seemed like a dream.  A couple hundred dollars a month was a ton of money to a kid in the early 90's-  You know, I needed hypercolor t-shirts, slap wristbands and Air Jordans of course!

edward jones spot

I directed another spot two weeks ago.  The talent, wardrobe and location collided again to make this piece visually beautiful.  We couldn't have done it without our phenomenally talented crew. It's currently in post and coming along nicely.   My director's reel website should be live in the next few weeks-

NHL tv spot

I've been working on producing my directors reel for the last few months.  These are the screen grabs from the spot I directed last Friday.  The spot is currently in post and is coming along nicely.  

The location, talent, wardrobe and concept kind of collided over top of me and my DP Paul Meyers during the shoot resulting in the above.  I'll post the final spot soon-

documentary shoot with jimmer fredette

I had the opportunity to shoot and spend a few days with Jimmer Fredette in Glens Falls, NY this past summer.  The kid can score the basketball, no question about it.  More than that though, he was raised the right way and it shows in the way he lives his personal life as well as his attitude on the court.

new work for evinrude

"The thought of getting a killer shot always helps get me out of a comfortable bed early in the morning. The brisket still churning in my stomach from the night before had finally settled so I knew it was going to be a special morning even before we arrived on set near Austin TX at 5 am.

Although it was dark we could still sense the thick fog rolling over the glassy surface of the lake. My assistants got the boat positioned as the fog lifted and the early morning light engulfed the scene. We started taking shots immediately. The first dozen were good but not exactly as I had envisioned. As soon as I saw the light starting to streak through trees I knew instantly this was what we were after. The rays started small then became bigger. In less than five minutes it was all over. "

Iphone shot at Denver Airport-

I'm in Alaska at the moment and am headed to Yukon, BC, Vancouver, Seattle and Glacier NP over the next two weeks. Rest assured there will be plenty of new Polaroid, Holga and iphone shots coming your way when I return-

walking

Iphone shots-

I decided to walk to my office. I love getting fresh air and just plain relaxing to be honest.

While out walking around it's always cool just to find things. There's something about finding a cool angle and making a sweet composition without disturbing or moving anything around.

skeet shooting iphone shots

Shot on my iphone in Northern Ca. and processed with an iphone application.

Did I give it a try? Yes I did. And I'm proud to say I shot for 75% accuracy even though I've never shot skeet or birds in my life.

My grandpa taught me to shoot when I was about 5 years old. I remember the day. He handed me an old 22 rifle and said, "follow me." We went outside and he set up some cans on a wooden fence and proceeded to tell me some off color jokes. I had no idea what he was talking about-

Shot in Northern Ca- taken with my iphone and processed with an iphone application-

If you know me, then you know I love clouds and skies. Ever since I was a kid they've begged for my attention. A cold drink, blanket and grassy hill are all I need to pass the day away-

Polaroid 600 shot with 680 slr- Utah

Tech scouting power plants for an upcoming shoot. It was 10 degrees the morning I shot this. I had sweet Lowepro gloves on but even that wasn't enough to prevent my fingers turning into ice cubes.
