MOOIEMUUR_________

2010-10-20T05:05:00.000-07:00

Two graffiti artists (Roy Valk/KARSKI and Olivier Schimmel) had the assignment to restyle the long wall of the Lombard Alley in Zeist.
They asked me to make an nice video of their work process, from design to wrap.

Well, here it is.

_Diamond Dance at The Dam_

2010-10-20T04:42:00.000-07:00

Squatters were threatning with actions and the previous night demonstrations had been pretty rough. All because the new anti-squatting prohibition. Entire police squads were standing guard at the backside of our 40 meter track right in the centre of Amsterdam, The Dam Square.
On the lens side (and we had a lot of lenses as you can see), there was a group forty Diamond Dancers showing their passion.
The crowd was also entertained.
There were no problems at al and it was a fine day with Bjorn from Cinegrip.

_Casting @ Typies____

2010-07-22T04:23:00.000-07:00

Shooting people, showing their talent on this trampoline all day was a warm experience. Warm because the studio turned into a sauna and ofcourse the lovely company of Arnan and Jiska. Allways a pleasure.

Sewa Kroetkov, Summer Day in Den Haag

2010-06-26T07:14:00.000-07:00

Spending most of our energie on a line that did not come to exist I can still happily show you this short montage that will be worth watching and was fun to shoot. Enjoy!

Sewa Kroetkov rollin Den Haag today, political capital of Holland. The fountain at Spui Square was pumping orange water just to give this montage an extra warm summer look....or should it have something to do with Holland winning, winning and winning match after match at the World Championships in Africa....

De Sterkste Man van Nederland

2010-06-17T13:19:00.000-07:00

Shooting this movie was great fun. The director Mark de Cloe is a real positive energie spreading person and Bert Pot, the PD, is a most friendly and funny man.
At the wrap party we all got a little present from Mark. A small cup or prize with "best -function-". I made a picture of mine. I'm so proud check it out.

2010-02-22T12:55:00.001-08:00

Editing has started for the making of OI' Clowns

2009-12-15T09:26:00.000-08:00

Eric Wobma's OI' Clowns was a real hussle. With crew numbers easily exeeding 60 and locations as challenging as big night exteriors in front of the Olympic Stadion and at the Leidseplein, Amsterdam, this was a production to remember.
Making of in progress....

filming in Rotterdam

2009-10-28T12:13:00.000-07:00

Yesterday, 23:30, got a call from Sewa. He was going to Rotterdam the next day and he was hyping me up to come along.
Well Rotterdam...it's a real pearl, film-wise. So the next day I found myself filming with these super talented dudes from Alkmaar (again) in one of the most filmable city's in Holland, to my taste.

Edit in progress...

Last weekend, filming with Domo had it's ups as well as it's downs

My work on tackyworld.com

2009-10-24T04:43:00.000-07:00

Just a few days ago some work of me got posted on tackyworld.com.

Colin Clark was planning an interview with Sewa Kroetkov, Colin asked me if he could use some of my work to come along with the interview. I met Colin at the premiere of his Europe video and we talked for a bit. That's how I got to know him. Colin is an intresting dude. The way this American made a video over here with only a backpack, laptop, camera and skateboard...I respect that a lot.
