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.

The series that took us all across the country this summer, INSIDER CITY GUIDES with FOOD & WINE MAGAZINE’S BEST NEW CHEFS, launched on the F&W website.  The videos are presented by American Express and are also airing on Plum TV - I know because I saw one on TV last  weekend.   We are proud and drinking champagne at the office.

We will also be putting up higher quality versions on our website soon.

We’re making a documentary for the JM Kaplan Fund with the NYC Parks Department about immigrants and parks in New York City.  Today we were shooting interviews in Travers Park in Jackson Heights, Queens.  Anyway, we had enough free time between shooting things to form this new gang that we’re very proud of, pictured below.

There are only 2 rules :

1.  You must have a mohawk.

2.  You must have wheels.

That’s it.

We are putting the finishing touches on a couple of exciting new videos for Nike. We’ve been dying to put these out there, so stay tuned.

In late October, we are scheduled to make another live concert video for The Knights.  This time they will be joined by famous cellist Jan Vogler.  Today we went to check out the location.

Mel is producing, Ariel is production designing, and I’ll be co-directing with Andrew Zuchero.

This is what happens when The Man isn’t paying for your hotel rooms.

I’m reading a galley of José Saramago’s new book “Death With Interruptions” about a world suddenly without death and Rel is reading “Our Man in Damascus” about a famous Jewish spy who was hung in Syria.   Nev is taking the picture, probably in his underwear.

So we’re in Colorado, making films “on-site” for Morphoses. Every afternoon the light comes streaming into our apartment, heats up the room, glints off of our computer screens, and makes editing very uncomfortable.

Rel and Nev have discovered a novel solution to this problem.
