Jessica Lynn - Now Or Never (Official Music Video)

After our first video collaboration for her song "Run To" made it onto rotation at CMT, Jessica Lynn asked me if I would direct and shoot her follow up, Now or Never.
We partnered up with one of my favorite clients, The Four Brothers Drive In in Amenia, NY and shot the video during one long evening from dusk to dawn.
Give it a watch if you have just over 3 minutes of spare time.

PlaySight Trinity-Pawling

I live in the town of Pawling, NY so I was really happy to be home in time for dinner while doing this shoot at the nearby boarding school for boys, Trinity-Pawling. We had a great time working with the teachers, staff, and student athletes from the school. Monstrinthedark is looking for more athletes to work with. Check out more of our work at monstrinthedark.com and if you're an athlete contact us at [email protected]

Western Union Slingshot

We shot this add for Western Union almost four years ago combining live action with CGI footage for the giant slingshot. I'm just starting to get back into CGI and looking forward to utilizing it for more commercials. Thanks to Eric Felix for his acting in this one.

A Look Back: We shot this Budweiser commercial in 2014 with my taekwondo instructor at his new dojang in Queens. Fun Fact: The older gentleman in the spot looking on as if he is the Master, is actually the guy who delivers wood to the school for punch and kick breaking.

New promo for the Four Brother's Drive-In. If you're in the Hudson Valley or even if you're not - come check this place out for a good time with family and friends.
