So I will be adding lots of the new content that has been sitting around for a while… I have been so busy that its hard to find the time to get it online. I am now officially MAKING time to do this.

So I got a call a while back from my friend Rhys Millen asking if I did videos. He mentioned he had a top secret project that he wanted to make a video of. I signed on, dropped a LOT of money on new camera gear (Canon XH-A1, Sennheiser wireless lapel mics, Audiotechnica Shotgun mic, a new Apple 8-Core video editing workstation, Apple 20″ monitor and lots of other accessories) and started shooting.

The super secret project was the build up of a new Hyundai Genesis Coupe. This car is really nice- especially considering the fact that its a Hyundai. It has completely changed the way that I see the brand. Unlike Domestic automakers, Hyundai has done their homework on what consumers want in a car. They hit a home run. This is the video that shows the whole process- from stock car to carbon fiber, track-ready machine.

This is the culmination of 8 days filming in Huntington Beach and 2 hours at Buttonwillow raceway.  This video was debuted at the SEMA show and has received well over 150,000 views and counting.  I only wish we had more time at the track to get some better action shots.  I was also shooting photos for Modified Magazine on track, so it cut into our action sequence time.  Thankfully, the photo session was not a waste- the images made the cover of the December 2008 issue and was featured as the main story.

Enjoy!
