Level 1 – After Dark Trailer


[Vimeo] <— 104,000 Hey Josh... thanks for dropping this on my wall and informing me of Level 1 Productions latest creation. Upon first watch... I have to say this is a very dark teaser. Since the name of the video this year is After Dark – I’m going to let if fly.

I counted 5 *holy shit* moments – 4 *what the* moments – and 20 different rewinds to figure out what in the hell is going on. Favorite shot is at 1:20 – looks like a quarter to reverse quarter transfer… so sick.

Ballyneal 155 Holes – For a Cause


[Just Read This]
[Denver Post Article]

Talk about a surprise story of the day revolving around a client of mine (Craig Hospital) an unfortunate skiing accident (At Monarch on March 17th, 2011) golfing an amazing course I’ve wanted to play (Ballyneal in Holyoke, CO) and playing 155 holes (walking) for a cause (Ben Cox’s personal patient assistance fund) and a completely random and honest stranger (Jim Colton)…

“If you’re a Golf World subscriber, check out the most recent version of Golf World Monday, the publication’s weekly digital version. #10 features a familiar face. If I had known my composite scorecard was going to be shared with the world, I might have tried a little harder on those four-footers. I also hit this drive on #12 way right into the native.”

A Collaboration of Two of My Brands

Apple has chosen an Audi edit to showcase the new Final Cut Pro X which was just released today. It is always great to see my number 1 and number 2 brands working together.

Watch this revolutionary edit and look for this shot above (1:05)… and tell me you don’t want to go jump in an Audi R8 and do that.

Joy.

Manchester Orchestra – New Sounds to Old Songs


[YouTube] <— 97 views. I rocked out with Manchester Orchestra last night in Denver. I’ve gone from being introduced to seeing them live… to solid fan in 2 days. This video is from their Hollywood show last week… Mind blowing Denver video to come.

The song above (Colly Strings – I’m Like a Virgin Losing a Child) is from their first album released in 2006.

Grab their newly released album and enjoy the growth of Manchester Orchestra with me. Simple Math Simple Math - Manchester Orchestra was released on May 9th, 2011, it isn’t even a month old… songs 6, 7 and 8 played together will change your life.

6 – Virgin
7 – Simple Math
8 – Leave it Alone

Simple Math Simple Math - Manchester Orchestra is simply a refresh on something artists tend to veer away from these days — actually making a complete album. Thank you Manchester for not following the normal and keeping the album alive.

The new sounds you install into your old songs + an absolutely mind blowing live performance = impossible to not love you. Thanks for the show.

Rock Hard Rangé


[YouTube] <— 395,449 If you can guess what this purpose of creating this video was for just by watching it... then you obviously must have been present at the Charles Schulz Celebrity Golf Event.

“Why not own a box Range’ for yourself? This product and accompanying television commercial were specifically designed to raise money for The Charles Schulz Celebrity Golf event, a 501 C3 charitable organization that has already donated over $2,000,000 to The Boys & Girls Clubs and other children’s charities throughout Sonoma County California.”

Talk about a creative way to finally see a non profit raise some money. 501 C3s — More humor please.
