So, what do you do when your storage bursts at the seams with your ever growing photo, audio and video library? You could do of course several things beside drink and forget. One of them is falling for a dedicated NAS (Network Attached Storage) as I did about 1 year ago which works just fine,…
I don’t know how many times I had to fill, sign then email an artist release out to be signed, instruct the model to print it, sign it, scan it then send it back hopefully receive it in time to post my images. Believe me, I felt the pain of signing artist releases, but I…
You should always have a project or two in mind when you travel. For one, it will help you stay focused and organized and then it’ll give you something to spend your time instead of aimlessly wondering the streets. And if you have none, don’t worry, ask your local friends to come up with an…
It didn’t take many rolls to get me hooked in shooting film. Once I got the taste of the first results (despite that one full roll was underexposed), there was no turning back.
I was fiddling again with a simple chord progression between two chords a major third step apart. It’s mind blowing how this little simple two chords progression can lend itself as a great cinematic soundtrack with a great emotional impact. Somewhat sad, with a simple melody played on glockenspiel, culminating later into an almost psychedelic…
So, after many days shooting video with a completely discombobulated rig where cables stuck out everywhere, catching up in everything around them, with PCM audio recorder mounted on top of the camera via a fragile hot shoe mount, (making every move in danger of braking something), I finally landed (after much research) on finding a…

These two years at Stocksy have been an amazing ride and I’m just scratching the surface. So much of what my portfolio is currently, is attributed to the…
When inspiration strikes and you have just enough time (and friends) to pull it though. I wrote this soundtrack for the Oatmeal Chocolate Cookie video essay, a fun (and delicious) project from filming all the way to eating. With some great help from my dear friend Dean Skuldt who did the amazing double bass and…
It happened. After much planning and expectation I finally met my <a href=”http://www.stocksy.com/”>Stocksy United</a> rock stars! We’ve known each other from the Stocksy forums, but actually meeting the characters behind each portfolio was a treat for me. <!–more–> It is amazing what a vibrant chemistry this gang had! Putting a face behind a name, brings…
Well, this was fun. This Europe trip came to an end with a fruitful baggage of new friendships, English Camp, 30 year old class reunion, epic Stocksy meet-up, old friends hang out, spending time with my Dad and of course tons of photos and video clips. I am very thankful for the two 64Gb SD…
