Received a nice note that two of our photos have been selected to show at the Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins, Colorado for the month of July. I did have an inclination of what they were after as their show theme is consumption – something we’ve been toying with lately in our work. And one of the photos, the lush overhead shot titled THE DAY WE STOPPED, was awarded an Honorable Mention. Woot! The other photo selected was the wonderful chaotic mess titled ABSINTHE. Interestingly both projects have a short art/editorial film we produced in tandem with the photo shoot. ABSINTHE will in fact be playing at the 12th annual Artsfest Film Festival in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania at the end of this month.

Here are the two photos and films …

As for the details … in both instances we used the Nikon D3X for the still capture with strobes and relighted for motion using the Red and daylight balance lighting (HMIs, kinos, etc.). Absinthe was shot overcranked 60fps for 24fps.

The bulk of the Lucifer’s Crewcut webiste has been uploaded and ready to tantalize the masses. Right now there is just the one clip with Jello Biafra talking about his run ins with the ‘cut. Soon we’ll get the stickers and shirts turned on. And let’s not forget some great materials from Arj Barker, Robert Hawkins and Doug Benson.

Our first day of shooting is set for Oct. 8th at our new studio. We’re grabbing Maria Bamford while she’s in town at one of the local clubs. We can shoot out the day with the other shots of the four guys together as they will all be here in SF.
