204 - AG Edwards

Here are two frames from an AG EDWARDS commercial that I shot on 35mm. They were shot with the look of the previous spots in mind.
The action is a woman coming home from work, to the sound of cooking. She goes into the kitchen to find the EGG making dinner. She says, "I've got a gift for you", and pulls some oven mitts out of her bag, only to realize that he has no hands. An awkward moment insues.
Don't ask me how he was making dinner, without any hands, in the first place. It is comedy.

Anyone who has taken a flight on Northwest has seen these Skymall
magazines. Here are a few of the wonderful, life-fulfilling items you can buy.


Who can live without this, I ask you, and at such a great price!

189 - Truth about Todd

Many people that we work with wonder about Todd C's darkside. It has been a mystery to us all for years. Well, last night that mystery came a step closer to being solved. I was in a place that I cannot give details of, for if they find out I don't want to even think about what may happen. Let these pictures speak of my discoveries and of my hope that soon, the entire truth will be able to be told at long last.







I believe that the implications of this discovery will have a hugh ripple effect among the Twin Cites film community.

188 - Crazy Van

So - Over the last few years I have bought a lot of film/video gear. I have used most of it on many jobs, each time loading up the pickup truck and unloading it when the job is done. That is getting old, and it is time to upgrade to a small van. Here is my dilemma. Do I go 100% practical and professional (ie:boring) van, or do I have fun in the process and risk the professionalism? If the answer is the latter, then I have found the van for me. It will have to be altered, but wow, take a look:


A 1977 Dodge Tradesman with too many crazy added features to mention them all. Some of them would have to be altered or removed for this van to serve me, but others may not. Besides the crazy added lighting (hey, I am into lighting) there is a sound system that is almost twice the safe level for human ears. I never have liked a car pulling along side me with a loud system, but if I bought this I could blast some polka music, or something equally as nuts, back at those people!



If that's not enough - look at this crazy VIDEO of the van.
Ya, probably too much, huh?
