Meese – “Tell Me It’s Over”
Justin Benoliel from Ghost Town Media produced this very promising music video yesterday in a warehouse downtown LA. It was shot by Hori Murai with 18 small camcorders strategically placed to capture the performace. The Red One Camera with anamorphic lenses was on the jib to get aerial dynamic moves and low angles.

Concert “Soul In The Machine” (video)
“Soul In The Machine” is a San Diego based electronic band. Last Saturday, the 14th, they performed at a charity event/warehouse party for “Burners Without Borders”, a group of Burning Man humanitarian activists. The Jimmy Jib, in its 12 ft configuration, was used to capture the concert along with 3 other cameras. Matteo Natale was my assistant on this job. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkVOxZCzMkg]

“Seventeen Forever”
Yesterday, I worked on my second music video for the band Metro Station. After Shake It! in the beginning of the year, producer Justin Beloniel asked me to operate the Jib on Seventeen Forever. Taking place at night at the Veluzat Ranch in Santa Clarita, the set was a sort of a trashed Luna Park. Marc Ritzema was the DP. Video coming soon…

Seal sings for Obama
I pulled focus yesterday on the next Seal’s music video, “A Change Is Gonna Come”. Shot in black & white by Joshua Reis using his Arri SR3 package and a Aaton LTR, the singer was just by himself performing in front of a black background and a spot light. Neon directed this video in support to Obama’s campaign.

Frenchies back in LA!
The French producer Laurent Darmon, who did Passi’s music video last year, came back to LA to shoot “Ray of Light”, the new single of the singer William Baldé. We spent this very sunny day in Venice, using the Arri SR3 in handheld mode, shooting in a house and later by the beach. It was a busy but yet very enjoyable day! Antoine Marteau was the DP and Delfina Garfias, the 2nd AC. http://www.dailymotion.com/embed/video/x5dvvs?logo=0&hideInfos=1

Now producing his own music videos, Justin Benoliel asked me to join his crew with the Jib at the Los Angeles Theater (pretty amazing location), located downtown, to shoot the music video of this new band. Johnny Ching was the DP.

Pascal Obispo’s music video
Using Matt Uhry’s russian Konvas camera, we shot yesterday the new music video of the very well established French singer Pascal Obispo. His new song, “Nouveau Voyage”, features the rapper Baby Bash. We spent most of our day on the beach in Venice before moving to the “Vine Bar” in Hollywood to finish the day. I was the only camera assistant, pulling focus and loading. Very busy day! Thanks to Sean for his help and Marten, our DP. UPDATE 11/23/07: The music video has just been released.

Let’s shoot in RED!
>Andrew Shulkind offered me to work together again with the jib on a music video for Partizan. The overnight shoot took place in a mexican grocery store in the valley. The exciting part of the project was the camera: the RED! The one we got has the serial number #30 and is obviously still not 100% ready. No viewfinder and most of the outpouts don’t work yet. But the camera was very easy to balanced on the remote head of the Jib and we didn’t have any bugs or problems.

French Music Video
Yesterday I worked on the new Passi’s music video, a famous french rapper. We got the bridge of 6th St closed all day just for us. I was pulling focus and operating the jib. It was a very busy day but also very nice to be with a french crew. A safe trip back to Paris to the DP Michel Faburiaux!
