Jeffrey & Tallgrass Pictures Featured in PDN

A big thanks to Photo District News & Barbara Goldman for featuring Jeffrey Lamont Brown's spot for San Diego State University (SDSU).  Jeffrey & his production company, Tallgrass Pictures,  shot their third commercial for the university, this time following 8 kids as they grow from childhood to NASA's Mars Exploration Program.   The spot was shot on location with the RED Epic and will air on ESPN & at SDSU beginning in February 2013 for one year.

“We had so much fun on this shoot. It’s not too often that you get to play with giant telescopes, wind tunnels and rockets.”

Tibor Nemeth Print & Motion for Massachusetts Tourism

Working right up until the last day of the year, Tibor worked with Connelly Partners to photograph the winter portion of the Massachusetts Tourism campaign.  The shoot consisted of stills & motion (which is still in the editing room), and took the crew to the Berkshires, then on to First Night in Boston for New Years Eve & finally, a little snow skiing at Nashoba.   The best part - no rental needed for special effects snow - Mother Nature came through all on her own.

Jonathan Chapman for Schwinn

If Santa didn't leave a bike under your tree, now is the time to start shopping in the new 2013 Schwinn Catalog photographed by Jonathan Chapman.  The book is out in select worldwide bicycle retailers and showcases a new line up of bikes ranging from Urban style to Cruisers, and Sport Hybrid to Mountain bikes and more.   (The matte black "Cruiser" model above even comes with a built in bottle opener) 

Photographed mid-summer by Jonathan & crew, they traveled to multiple locations around the Minneapolis area for 2 days to capture the warm and active lifestyle of Schwinn consumers.     Read more on Jonathan's blog, & cross your fingers - we might get a few more bike rides in before Spring....

Happy New Year to all those we worked with last year.  We are looking forward to continued adventure and all that 2013 has in store!

Eric Kiel for Pfizer

Eric Kiel ventured to Colorado for a 2 day shoot for Pfizer Equine.  Working with Bader Rutter, Kiel & team photographed over 50 different shots to establish a new image library for Pfizer.   The project dictated some early morning call times...apparently fueled by Fruit Loops for breakfast.   

From here, Eric went on to another shoot in Wyoming, and is now in British Columbia shooting for Ski-Doo. 
We hope to share those visuals with you after the 1st of the year!

Jonathan Chapman's Target C9 Director's Cut Launch

We're excited to officially launch the director's cut of the Target C9 Active Apparel video.  Shot this past summer on the streets of San Francisco, the video was produced by JCP in collaboration with Minneapolis based Knock Inc.  This version of the edit is a cut-down from the original 9 minute spot currently playing inside the San Francisco's recently opened City Target. Be sure to check out the Video Preview post which offers additional insight into the storyline as well as how the project came together. 


 


For the director's cut, Jonathan worked closely with Chadwick and the team at Splice to pull some select shots and sequences and shorten the overall edit by about 3 minutes.  Our project tapped a broad palette of crew from Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Minneapolis to capture the "day in the life" storyline  required to tell the full narrative of the multiple activities that take place throughout an active day on the streets of San Francisco.

It's been quite a year for Jonathan, including recent travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina. 2012 is nearly wrapped and we're already looking forward to a what's in-store for 2013.  On the horizon are many updates to Jonathan's portfolio, website and director's reel, as well as new projects in the works… Yippee!

Carl Tremblay for Golf Digest

With all the holiday ads for cars in your driveway with the "big red bow", we thought we'd post this lovely red Audi A7, shot for Golf Digest by Carl Tremblay.  It may not be ideal golf weather in the Northeast now, but anyday is a great day for a drive, especially in this car!  (It has its own Wi-Fi hot spot).    Too bad the props on this shoot had to be returned!
