Jungles and Pyramids - Body Painting Video

Showcasing the bodypainting artistry of Jennifer Montgomery and models Arielle Johnson and Leanna, I shot an incredible promotional art video on RED One MX - supported by Stephen Tucker, Jake Czepiel, and David Kappler. The location was supplied by Harmonic Distortion Productions in Philadelphia, PA and art supplied by Antonio Puri. These visuals are not to be missed!

JaQuinley Kerr

Actress... Model... Designer... Make up Artist...   JaQuinley Kerr.  What can I say?  She's great.  Keep an eye out for her. 

Supported by David Kappler and Marvin Burwell, we shot a promotional art/modeling video with JaQuinley in an incredible artist studio in New Hope, PA.  JaQuinley created her own outfit for the shoot in addition to doing her own make up and hair.  The visuals are distinct and play off her pale and almost vampiric look created for the video.  Shot on RED One MX at 4K resolution and 3K for 60fps overcranking.

Calle Luna Salsa Dancers

If you've ever seen salsa dancing done right, you've been blown away by the skill of the dancers.  I had the great pleasure of shooting a promotional video for the Calle Luna Dance Studio salsa dance team.  Shot on RED One MX and supported by the crew: AC Jake Czepiel, Erik Lu, Burke Pushman, Marvin Burwell, Steve Laramie, and Davita Pray, we pulled an all night shoot with a load-in time of 8:30pm.  All in all, it was a short shoot day (less than four hours of shooting) with load out at 3am but the specific hours themselves were taxing.

We kicked up about 9,000 watts of tungsten light so we were able to shoot at a very high shutter speed to capture how electric their movement was.  The salsa team blasted out an action packed two-minute routine and we shot it with jib, dolly and sticks.  For good measure, we got some slow motion at 2K (120 fps)
