Everything In Its Place

Back in September on a rather rainy day my assistant, Daniel and I trekked up town to meet with Stephanie Shalofsky. I got to see into her extremely neat and organized Upper East Side home and learn about herself and her company, The Organizing Zone.

Here's the first (the introduction video) of a series of videos we produced for Stephanie.



As you watch, take a look around your desk, your email inbox, maybe bill or invoice collection....anything sound familiar? Maybe you need to give Stephanie a call.

Katee + Michael Engagement Photos

So a little over a week ago I set out to Hell's Kitchen, Canon 60D in hand, feeling a little like a fish out of water. Yes, I like photography, but no I don't do it professionally, or do I? I think I may have changed my mind after shooting my good friends' Katee and Mike's Engagement photos. It was so much fun, and the photos came out so cute (if I do have to say so myself)!


We ran around their neighborhood in Hell's Kitchen, snapping awesome moments of the couple in between the torrential down pours that kept recurring during throughout the day.

Below are some of my favorites from the day:



I hope you enjoyed take a little peek, these two are so cute I can't wait for their wedding this Winter in Mexico!

A lot has been going on besides me writing short bios about myself. In May I produced a series of artist spotlight videos for the Northport ArtWalk. It was great learning about the different techniques and art styles of each artist, and it was really cool to see the whole community coming out and enjoying the day. Check out their youtube page: http://www.youtube.com/northportartwalk

In June I jumped in at Moped Productions to do a little reality tv work. It was a lot of long hours and hard work, but it was a lot of fun working with the team over at Moped, as usual.

Over at Eve Pearl, I've been helping produce videos for the AOL/Huffington Post StyleList section, check out some of the great work we've been putting together:

This month I'm joining HelloSuper8 on some great wedding shoots along the East Coast. I'm looking forward to learning more about the wedding industry and helping tell some great stories along the way. (I'm a sap for a good love story) It's been so much fun so far working with Super8 film, I love the look and feel of all the pieces she's puts together. Check out the HelloSuper8 website and she what I'm talking about: http://hellosuper8.com/

Check back soon, I think I smell a website overhaul coming my way...

American Cancer Society and World Theatre Day Videos

Hi There -

I just wanted to share with you a couple of edits I've been working on. At the end of January/early February I volunteered to edit the American Cancer Society behind the scenes video for their Save the Date shoot for this year's Black & Pink Tie Gala. It was a lot of fun to edit, and I think the ACS team and the Moped Productions crew had fun shooting it as well. Check it out:

This month, also at Moped Prodcutions I edited the World Theatre Day video for the 2nd year in a row. This year TCG invited actor, Jeffery Wright to deliver his message about WTD. Watch below to see what he said:

I'm also currently working on another stack of videos for Ramon Ray, Editor & Technology Evangelist, of Smallbiztechnology.com. Stay tuned to see those.

I've also been delving deep into the International Beauty Show videos here at Eve Pearl. I and the EP video team shot some great footage at the show, and can't wait to share some of the fun we had there on the Eve Pearl Youtube channel.

Coming up next month, I'm excited to shoot the Northport Arts Coalition's (NAC) Art Walk. "The Northport ArtWalk is a self-guided walking tour of the many galleries, studios and eclectic gallery-for-a-day venues centered around and along Northport’s picturesque Harbor and Main Street." It should be a great day of shoot video and seeing some great local art, as well as meeting a lot interesting people. Visit their website to find out more information and the dates of the Art Walk.

That's all for now Folks!

January 2011 Update

Hey All -

It's been a crazy last few weeks. January started off with a bang!

I just finished up an intense DVD project for Isramerica. Here is a still of the Main Menu layout to the left. I'll post the other menus soon for you to check out.

It was a pretty challenging DVD authoring session. I don't think I've worked on a DVD with so many menus, tracks and slideshows before, but in the end it came out well. If you would like to find out more about Isramerica, please visit their website: www.isramerica.com.

Thanks to Moped Productions I also picked up new client this month: Ramon Ray of smallbiztechnology.com. I churned out about 15 videos for him this week from the 2011 CES Exhibit in Las Vegas. Look for him on youtube to see the videos.

Phew! It's been a busy few weeks with hardly and sleep, but it's been worth it. I'm heading out west for about a week for some much needed r&r. I'll see you all when I get back, and oh yea -

Happy New Year Everyone - thank you for all your support, collaborations and inspirations. Let's make sure this new year is filled with even more great work and projects.

As always - thanks for stopping by,
