In late summer of 2010, I had the distinct honor and pleasure of attending the wedding of Johanna and Jesse Littlewood. What was it like you ask? Well, let me show you.

Everything in my life feels like it is moving at breakneck speed. Minutes feel like seconds, weeks feel like days. I'm barely able to keep up with it and I'm rarely able to soak it in. I tried to make a video that looks how I feel. I have been shooting and cutting this over the past few months, documenting my life, and the things I see daily, in time lapse. Shot on a GoPro Hero HD in time lapse mode. Images every 2 seconds, cut in ProRes 422 HQ 1920x1080 24p. Exported to H.264 1280x720. The music is "Home" by Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros as remixed by RAC

Panasonic AG-HVX200. shot and edited in about 4 hours, this was no more than a saturday afternoon project. shot by lilah cady, starring carey givens. a classic for the ages no doubt. and where's that lovely wall? a magician never tells.
bridesmaid trade
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1K. lilah and i shot this for kathryn hart house's fledgling startup bridesmaid trade as a promotional video. a special thanks to super bobby for his lovely musical stylings thudding along in the background. and, if you can believe it, someone was actually getting rid of that dress at goodwill. some people are crazy.
