Have a look at this, The Birthday Suit (Ex Idlewild guitarist Rod Jones’ new project) at the Ruby Lounge that I took part in shooting along with a bunch of other DSLR Ninjas on a cold February night. Spectacularly edited by Daniel Kenyon, the entire gig is up on YouTube or have a squiz at Play Nice TV for the lowdown.

A few pictures from the Music Cuisine showcase night in Nelson, Sean Roche, Effluence and Saturday Night Gym Club. All are involved in one way or another with Music Cuisine

This is a video I shot and recorded with Sean Roche and Steve Wilson, Sean writes incredible fingerstyle guitar pieces, check him out on Facebook to see more.

I do do other things besides videos for SNGC you know, this however isn’t one of them.

Shot behind Morrisons in Wood Green, London with a Dancer I met on the internet called Chloe Agligianni, she did a great job considering I had no experience of working with Dancers and was right into the spirit of spontaneous creative endeavor. Follow the links in the YouTube description for more info on what is quite obviously one of my favourite bands.

Here’s a music video I was involved in the production of, concept and direction by Sam Green from Music Cuisine, shot by Mark Tattersall and edited by my good self

Here’s the brand new video I produced for How to Build a Life Raft by Dancefloor Storytellers, Saturday Night Gym Club, it was shot on a tiny budget on my 5d2 and edited in Final Cut Pro, look out for their debut EP this summer, it promises to be off the old heezy, blow ya horn!

Just putting the finishing touches to a new promo for Saturday Night Gym Club, a new Anglo-Irish Electro-pop band who describe themselves as ‘dancefloor story tellers’ according to the BBC page for their upcoming Radio One Big Weekend show on Saturday the 14th May. I think they’re awesome and really enjoyed working on this video with them. Finished article should be up here in a day or two.

Here’s the finished version of ‘There is a Spark’ by the brain-bendingly, up-my-street, Heat vs Light. We shot this on my Canon 5d2 with a Canon 50mm 1.4 prime, 17mm-40mm 4.0 L series and a crappy 75mm-300mm EF zoomer. I ran the camera and JP Keenan took a directorial role. We edited it together and JP graded it.

Tutorial video on how to create music within the timeline of Final Cut Pro, a technique pioneered by Lasse Gjertsen about 4 years ago in his video Amateur. it can also be seen in action in my iPhone Music Apps video. It’s not the most entertaining video I’ve created but it does explain the most important parts of the process. I can only apologise for my distinct lack of charisma during this tutorial.

I just finished editing these visuals for Saturday Night Gym Club’s remix of the Ellie Walker track ‘I know’. All of the timelapse footage was downloaded from the amazing openfootage.net and stockfootageforfree.com, both sites have a small amount of free HD footage, no massive libraries, just a little collection of really great clips.

Feels like ages since I’ve done anything creative, work has been really dull lately, churning out corporate internals or swinging spanners for cash, this shoot for Heat vs Light for their incredible There is a Spark was highly enjoyable, I love this band and I’m very thankful for the opportunity to work with such talented young men. These stills are from the shoot, more news on the finished video as it unfolds.

iPhone Music Apps vid from last year, music made from snips of video all done in the timeline of Final Cut Pro.
