Want To See Why I Went Overseas Last Year?
March 13th, 2008 by Andy|
Those of you who were reading this blog this time last year will remember that I went to Japan, Germany, and Italy for 5 weeks on a Discovery video shoot. After what has been, and certainly feels like, an eternity, they have finally started running the videos that we shot. Go see “Twist The Throttle“, directed by Dylan Weiss, shot by Andy Waruszewski and myself, in glorious HD, for free, on the web, right now, do it. What is the show about, you ask? I’ll let Dylan’s words take you through it:
So there you have it, the answer to all of your dreams has finally arrived. I make some cameo appearances in the behind the scenes footage, look out for the jackass making wisecracks, that’s me. The theme of the trip was not knowing exactly where we were or how to get where we were going, augmented by exhaustion. The longest leg of the journey was 30 something hours of nonstop travel that put us on 3 continents and who knows how many countries (I think it was 4). This was my highest profile gig to date as a camera operator; mostly I like to let other people handle the actual lighting and shooting, and professionally I do VFX, not set work. It was most definitely one of those once-in-a-lifetime kind of opportunities, and I am extremely grateful to Dylan for asking me to come along for the ride. If you like motorcycles, or Japan and Europe, or HiDef video (presented in Standard Def on the web, but that’s another story…) or me, or any combination of the above, go check it out. Comments, thoughts, etc. are more than welcome! |

I’m sure all guys who write comments are teens or even younger. If you are older, than shame on you!
