Snowboarding

admin January 3, 2011

Over Christmas I shot some test footage at Steamboat Springs in Colorado with the HERO HD helmet cam with my brother-in-law Jason Lacy aka "The Mayor." Here is what we got. Music by The Exciters -- Exciters Theme from "Panama! Latin, Calypso and Funk On the Ithmus from 1965-1975" available on Soundway Records.

It was one of the coldest Christmases that I can remember in Steamboat this year so unfortunately, I was only able to film for one day. Fortunately, I was able to snowmobile to the continental divide located in Routt National Forest with my good friend Jupiter. However, I didn't shoot any video because I didn't want to stick one of the mounts on my snowmobiling rental helmet. I need to get some more of those HERO helmet accessories.

Grants, "Toxic Soup" DVDs and More

admin December 16, 2010

We are currently applying for multiple grants for our new documentary, "To Live and Graffiti in Los Angeles," which follows Ricky Guerrero of The Graff Lab, Gloria Farias of the PUHC and more. The documentary will also tell the story of the Pico Union neighborhood of Los Angeles. Pico Union is notorious for its gangs as well as for being in the infamous Rampart police district, but it is also home to multimillion dollar developments like the Ritz Carlton, the Staples Center and the Nokia Center. "To Live and Graffiti in Los Angeles" is in the middle of production.

We are also finalizing our DVD release for "Toxic Soup." "Toxic Soup" will be available on Amazon.com, but probably not until January or February 2011. In the mean time we are pressing up an additional round of DVDs to hold us over until everything is finalized with the folks over at CreateSpace. We submitted the artwork as well as the DVD, and after we approve their "proof," we should be good to go.
