Music Video series Part 2. Following the success of the John Mayer "No Such Thing" video I got a call from Joanna Carter at Capitol in Nashville saying Keith Urban wanted to meet me. So we cooked up a plan to do a roadtrip video with Keith as he was touring across the west. Me, Jesse Sheppard, Jojo Pennebaker David Rudd and a few more intrepid souls set out to make the best behind the scenes live video anyone had done so far. Super fun, crazy hours, and a wild success. Led to a new phase for me in the great city of Nasvhille. Another wonderful edit by Wyatt Smith

Thinking back wistfully to my days as a music video director so I thought I would post a few over the next couple of days. I will curate ones that have special meaning or creative importance to me. On that note.....here is the first ever music video I ever directed, John Mayer's "No Such Thing." My dear friends Michael McDonald and Greg Linn had tipped me off to this new young singer/songwriter and asked that I spend some time documenting him. After riding around in a van with John for a while, I shot this at the Georgia Theater in 2001 (EDIT: early 2002! thanks Jocelyn Cohen). This video was nominated for a VMA in the best new artist category. Primary cinematography by Ross Richardson, and edited by the one and only Wyatt Smith, produced by Jesse Sheppard
