Miami Spice

If Miami hasn't got it, they haven't invented it yet.

My first trip to Miami proved to be an extraordinary and entirely unexpected pleasure. Over this past week, I met a remarkable crew of filmmakers, directed my first commercial, experienced my first Art Basel, ran into a boatload of old and new friends, saw a private LCD Soundsystem show, ate and drank, then danced, ate and drank some more. It hasn't been 24 hours since I got home and already I'm nostalgic. Thanks to Max, Violet, Green Tea Films and my Mondrian-poolside-work-bungalow for making this an awesome December so far.

Healthcare Then and Now

I was going back through a bunch of old material that was on the Internets (most of which I wish I could take down) when I came across this video that I made two years ago. Wait for the dialogue and recognize the significance of the healthcare bill having been passed.

Metric at the Palladium

Thanks to the extraordinary awesomeness of music producer Ben Einziger and photographer/director Brantley Gutierrez , I not only got to go see Metric play the Hollywood Palladium, I also got a photo pass! Great show; amazing people. I like LA more and more each time I visit. Click through for more pictures.
