N-Demand, That’s Right!

Our 2nd Look on a white cyclorama!It was to be madness.

The cool morning gray allowed the only moment of respite we would experience before the carnage began.

The doors opened, and we were off.

Over the past few weeks I had been slowly producing a live to tape, concert style music video I was also slated to direct for a band known as N-Demand. The last two weeks of putting it together led up to the frenetic 12 hours I had to shoot three different looks with enough accuracy and coverage to make it feel like I knew what I was doing. With that said, this certainly won’t be a problem. Our goal was to raise the standards for this type of music video, and I’d say that we’ve probably done just that. Me and Sebastian working on the shot

Overall, I’d say that it was a tremendous success. With the keen talent of my Director of Photography, Sebastian Sokolowski, and our key team members, the shoot went off with very few problems.

Shot in 1080 24p High Definition, the images look phenomenal and the performers were in a league of their own.

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be editing the piece together and posting the video along with some photographs of us at work.

Other than that, I’ll be posting the teaser to Therapy very soon, so check back often to see some of the work I’ve been doing in between my seasons of directing Big Brother.
