Frenchman’s Cove

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

In 1988, the movie “Cocktail”, starring Tom Cruise, was filmed in the parish of Port Antonio in Jamaica. This September, I filmed in Port Antonio for a client that owns several villas there called Frenchman’s Cove. Parts of this hotel property once served as a movie set for “Cocktail”. Today, the area is very secluded and provides a perfect getaway for adventurous vacationers. It is the most beautiful area in Jamaica because it has remained untouched by tourism. I have posted several photos and one of the videos I created to advertise for the villas of Frenchman’s Cove. The photos are compliments of my photographer sidekick, Phillip Glickman.

Palace House

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

In 1966, the motion picture “A Man for All Seasons” was filmed here at Beaulieu and won picture of the year. The same backdrop is my work space for two weeks. We’ve been filming all day long for three days and we have barely scraped the surface of this beautiful place. Today, we filmed near Lord Montagu’s beach house where we found twenty wild horses in a variety of colors walking along the rocky beach of the Solent (the body of water that separates the UK from the Island of Wight). I’ve compiled a few of the many amazing shots Jake and I have captured the past couple days. Please enjoy this brief video of Palace House, our home here in Beaulieu. **Note: This video has NOT been edited for color, contrast, etc. It is the RAW footage….it is amazing all by itself. Also, enjoy the pictures my sharp photographer, Phillip, has taken. I will update soon…..I think Phillip and I are going to enjoy a cigar on the palace roof….hehe.

The Rackspace Cloud

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Have you heard of “Cloud Technology”??  Chances are you use Cloud and don’t even know it.  It’s the next big thing in the world of web hosting, and it’s very very cool.   This video was created for Rackspace to introduce their Cloud offering.  In the near future, most of the internet you use will be powered by the cloud.

Music and Streets of SXSW

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

I took my camera for a day into downtown Austin during this year’s SXSW Music Festival.  Thousands of people flooded the streets to hear music being performed EVERYWHERE.  I’ve never seen an eclectic group of people quite like I did that day.  At times it felt like I was in a different era.  Simply put – it was awesome.

To capture all the energy and excitement, I decided to overcrank my camera to slow down most of the images.  I think this really added a great contrast and helped to capture what it felt like to be there.  Watch and let me know what you think!  Music by:  Andrew Bird
