"Loco Por Tu Amor" Music Video

During the month of June DanamationStudios and Big Brown Table(BBT) were contracted to do two music video for the popular bi-lingual rock band Monte Negro. BBT approached the bands lead singer Kinski Gallo about making a video in early May of 2009. Kinski was already in gear at the time and eager to start working on a video for his next big single "Loco por tu amor".





Kinski had most of the ideas already worked out in his mind when we first met. He has a strong vision for how the band presents itself. At times Kinski's vision was so strong it seemed to be limiting our own creativity. This was a big challenge for the group. Kinski came to the table with tons of research, images and ideas about the video. There was so much to consider at first and it took a couple of weeks before we started to let it all sink in and to narrow it down. The whole process of making the video was very much like putting a collage together. We had several different elements that we collected for the video. We had pictures and video of old town Puerto Rico, we had collages that Kinski had made and we had the green screen footage of the band.





Some of the images from PR had very rich colors and others had more texture and no color at all. The architecture and the town itself is diverse in this way. The trick then was to take all of these elements and to make them fit as though they belonged together. We didn't have much time but in the end I think the video turned out to be something to be proud of. The video was premiered this month on MTV tr3's and can be found on YouTube or on the Monte Negro Myspace page. Working with Kinski was a pleasure and we are looking forward to the release of the next video Message which is soon to come.

Thursday Life Drawing with the Ringmaster!

Last night we had a very special drawing session. The Ringmaster was in the house! Jennifer surprised us with a magnificent costume, we had a new artist join the group and the best part of the night (I dare say) was Jenny's home made peach cobbler a la mode. Delicious! Before everyone showed up Jenny and I debated over what music to listen to. We both believe that music has powerful influences and that it's important to pick the right tunes before drawing. Having said that, agreeing on music is not always the easiest thing to do. For example, my pick for Thursdays circus theme was Mr. Bungle . Jenny disagreed with my musical choice, calling it geeky white guy music and instead suggested we listen to Louis Armstrong. These are obviously two very different artist but in the end I had to agree with Jenny's pick. Something as hardcore as Mr. Bungle would have been to distracting to listen to. We made a compromise and settled on Louis Armstrong for drawing and Mr. Bu...

Always Painting!

As a personal project of mine I've been painting on and off for a year now and have created a small collection of still life studies. These are some of my favorite paintings. This painting came to me the night before my friends art show Amores Muertos . I already had two paintings but then this image came into my head. I painted as fast as I could and tried to copy the image in my head onto the canvas. This is another painting that came directly from my imagination. It seems that most of the images that come directly from my mind are dark. Jenny's rock collection. I thought it would be nice to document one of her art projects by painting it. She is crocheting very intricate covers for each these stones.    Part I and II of the toy series. Above are my son's Fisher Price stacking rings and wood-block train.   These last two paintings are 5x6 inch studies done during a couple o...

Monday Night Drawing at Buckwild Gallery in Venice!

       At the end of December last year we attended an art show at the Buckwild gallery in Venice. That night we met the gallery owner and talked with him about the possibility of hosting weekly figure drawing sessions in the space. We quickly came up with a plan and were soon on our way to getting things ready for our first meet up. Jennifer began advertising while my dad and I built ten new drawing benches for the class. The second Monday of January was our first session at the new location and to our surprise the night was a big success. Jennifer brought her amazingly good chocolate chip cookies and every seat was filled .      Next Monday will be a special drawing night in honor of Valentines day. We have a lovely couple modeling for us, so if your local and want to brush up on your drawing skills come on down. For more information about our Monday night figure drawing sessions check us out at www.meetup.com .
