Check out the new piece for Penguin Group, for Peter Bognanni's debut novel, "The House of Tomorrow". This was a collaboration with Tarik Karam.
It was a crazy marathon stop-mo shoot that came together all at the last moment.
This book trailer was made with my boys at Satan's Pearl Horses and the Crimson Underworld.

Oh yeah, don't forget to check out the photograph series for this piece as well!

Changes abound at the Kitchen!
Some design and type tweaks. I'm an amateur/mediocre designer+coder, so these things take a while for me. :{
In any case, I hope you enjoy the little refresh. A couple of new projects are coming up and will be posted soon! Stay tuned!

Just posted a tribute/career retrospective of Mary J. Blige that I directed for a 2010 Grammy's event in her honor.
Over the course of the project, I got to meet a whole slew of luminaries and legends like Dr. Maya Angelou (btw, pronounced, "Anjuh-LOW" not "Anjuh-LOO"), Russell Simmons, LA Reid, and more.
It was nice to see it well-recieved at the event in LA in front of Mary J. Blige and her peers.
