The uncut version of one of the commercials (Too Hot for TV) I created for the Heinz Top This TV Challenge way back in the day. If you are easily offended, you probably should close your eyes.

We are about to start the fall session at Cabrini Connections Video and Filmmakers club, but here is a quick update on how we ended the summer. We were able to take the winners of our Frame Game (students gain points for attendance, performance and good behavior) to a Chicago Bears game!

Go here for more on the game. Also go here to see the music videos that the students created.

The two commercials below are entries from the Heinz Top This TV Youtube competition from 2007. They were made in my garage in Carmichael, California.

It’s amazing what you can do with some stuff from The Dollar Store, a glue gun, and a catchy tune. I sang the male vocals, and Paula Abdul on the female vocals. Please excuse the lo-fi versions.

Living Legends Live at the Colonial Theater in Sacramento with Interviews with Murs, Aesop and Scarub

dumbworldorder — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 18:35:46 +0000

In 2008, I had the opportunity to shoot and edit a couple of shows for Spyn Cycal, a Sacramento based Independent HipHop “video magazine.” One of the shows was the Living Legends Crew, and the other was Little Brother, both at the Colonial Theater in Sacramento.

Shooting and editing the shows really taught me some things about dealing with lighting issues, getting good sound (the Colonial Theater is notorious for having bad sound) and covering up the fact that you have bad sound. One of the Living Legends videos is below (I did three total), and doing them gave me the opportunity to shoot some other live performances (Planet Asia, KRS One, Giant Panda). The energy at the Living Legends show was bananas, and I hope that comes across in the video.
