Black 13 Tattoo: Behind the Scenes

Here’s a few behind-the-scenes iPhone photos from the Black 13 Tattoo commercial I co-directed with Eli McFadden. Nothing like a little 1930’s fight club meets Gangs of New York to make a weekend right.

More shots after the jump.

Along with the video shoot I also worked on a few still shots for their advertising which I hope to be posting in the next few weeks. Must say, this shoot gave me a whole new love for hazers. Oh, and 30’s wardrobe as well thanks to the thread styling of Amanda McRae.

How about that Josh Woods and his epic facial hair (see above)? The fine grooming is thanks to awesome makeup artist and hair magician, Mary Stanley.

This is what I do and love. Each of these have common traits with the other; communication, dots and constraints. Each must communicate an idea to the viewer or perhaps an idea or action. In order to convey this message there are dots in need of connection, often in the form of creative problem solving. And with each there are constraints that must be worked within whatever the size. It's the navigation of these traits, paired with the journey, that drives the need to do these things.

I'm currently available for full-time, freelance and contract gigs. When I'm not working I'm creating photography resources, mixing cocktails or showcasing poster artwork from around the world.
