Art at the Tour de France

A little piece I did with Han Rey at the 2004 Tour de France. There is so much cool stuff going on at the amazing bike race.

Low Two High: Utah

Here is the trailer for a project I worked on this fall. Human powered from the lowest point to the highest point in every US state and playing music at night. What I love about this project it that it is a make up your own adventure kind of project, if that makes sense??? We had a lot of fun on this one! Enjoy

Flick Trix TV Spot

Every once and a while I get to be all Hollywood and direct a giant budget TV commercial, here is one I did for a toy company. It is strange to have 40 people on set as you direct, but I must tell you that I am just as comfortable to with that as my small documentary crews and flying solo- it is just another flavor of production. Happy Tuesday.

Eric Porter and his Boy

I spent some time yesterday with pro mountain biker Eric Porter and his cool kid. So look for the video on my YouTube video that I am launching on January 1, 2013. The channel is called "The Talking Fly" and will feature a bunch of short nonfiction movies. Have a good weekend.
