I Love HipHop

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 12:00:54 +0000

All this talk about hurricane katrina, had me reminiscing of the old days; the good old days.
I was a child of the hip hop era as I was to young to take part in the disco era in New Orleans, although many of you can speak on the good times that was once had at The Famous, The Bottom Line, Club Nexus, and The Big Easy to name a few.

So for those of us who remember, the two tone jeans, Fila’s, Bally and other fashion trends of our time. Heres an old school hip mixx to start your week. Enjoy

Art & Copy

If you’re a photographer, filmmaker, CD or AD and interested in advertising work, and/or if you’ve enjoyed Doug Pray’s previous documentary films Hype!(about Seattle Grunge) or Scratch (about DJ Culture), you’ll want to check out his new one, Art & Copy.

A synopsis:

“ART & COPY reveals the stories behind and the personal odysseys of some of the most influential advertising visionaries of our time and their campaigns, including Lee Clow (Apple Computer 1984, and today’s iPod); Dan Wieden (“Just Do It”); ….Directed by Doug Pray (SURFWISE, HYPE!, SCRATCH), ART & COPY captures the creative energy and passion behind the iconic campaigns that have had a profound impact on American culture. Featuring rare interviews with the aforementioned industry legends, the film seeks to identify the elements that transform a slogan into a pop culture catch phrases….’The movie looks at advertising not as products flying off the shelf but as the work of a few American heroes who feel passionately about their craft, ideas, and the ability of ideas to change how people feel.’”

Probably coming soon to a small theater or a DVD near you.

Bluu a fellow New Orleanian and Warren Easton Alumni. I had a chance to work with Bluu, Austin’s R&B hippie on a shoot in collaboration with Jim-E-O for an upcoming project. It was a VIBE called Quest, because the vibe was there and we were on a quest for creativity.

Dora Garza

I had the pleasure of photographing Dora Garza we are facebook friends and had passed notes about working together and it finally came to reality today. If you know me and the way I work, I like to capture the personality in a person. I’m not a real poser, I will direct you yes but my approach as I call it is, controlled fun.

I want you to be yourself and have fun, but I will guide you when needed. Dora looked at my website and saw the people posted and brought some dresses with her, next time she will bring some of her costumes and accessories. Music and alcoholic beverages usually does the trick with helping a person loosen up. Here are a few of the many beautiful shots from our session.

This is an image I captured on a recent trip to New Orleans. I was on a early morning photo walk, when this red headed lady zoomed pass me on her bike. I didn’t have a chance to adjust any settings on the camera, all I could do was focus, pan, and shoot.

John Carlin

Today I had the chance to work with another new actor/model for some head shots, John Carlin. He has also made appearances on the Friday Night Lights series, and is looking to further his career. Speaking with John I realized he had the triple D’s, Determination, Drive, and Dedication, The three major factors to any venture.

Believing in yourself actually means more than your abilities to accomplish the task at hand. With John’s positive attitude and drive to succeed in acting, I’m looking to see more from him in the future.
