Next week we’re shooting some real estate commercials in Mexico.  We leave in about 5 hours.  An SUV will pick us up from the office at 3:30 am and by noon we will be sitting in our seaside mansion in Los Cabos.

Stay tuned…

Last week we art directed a top secret music video for our friends over at Greencard Pictures, produced by our #1 favorite producer Melody Roscher, directed by our British friend Jim Canty.   We can’t give you any hints as to who the artist was except to say that he is so famous they have interns over at the record label trolling the internet to find out if anyone posts photos from the set of his music video before it is released.

Here’s a sweet little bedroom set we designed in the apartment of Jim Barber.

Here’s one of our top 2 favorite A.D.’s in NYC : John Mingalone.

By the end of the day our only responsibility was to keep track of 2 coffee cups.  Good thing we had back-ups.

Did we mention that we’re on a 10 city tour of the United States, interviewing the best chefs in the country and shooting 10 90-second spots for Food & Wine Magazine and American Express? These “travel vignettes” will air on Plum TV and on a special Food & Wine website.

Producer Melody Roscher (above) has decided to produce all of the spots with a baby monkey on her head.

Jody made a new friend too.
