Special Thanks 2010



Twenty-Ten was yet another year of huge growth and major changes. From moving into my own place, starting Old Abbot, crafting several music videos, Directing/Producing the 48 Hour Film Project/Red Bull Flugtag/Reel 2 Real, and helping The Wangnoo's commemorate their Wedding vows top my list of this year's doings. Indeed, this year was one epic and necessary ride, and so the saga continues.



I've got many thank you's to shoutout this year, but not nearly as much as were given to me throughout the year from those around me. Well here it goes, Justin Aarestad, Nicki Andert, Tony Angeles, Nathan Armstrong, Dan Behrens, Teddy Berg, Alana Bloom, Brandon Boulay, Alex Bowes, Margo Cavis, Justin Cooke, Beth Van Dam, Andre Durand, Clayton Ebeling, John Edel, Jesse Feltz, Bre Füss, Joey Giovelli, Steve Goldschmidt, Frank Gores, Johnny Griese, Samantha Hanus, Joseph Harris, John Hensen, Ben Hippely, Mike Hjelden, Thomas Hoekstra, Brian Hoskins, Kay Hussein, Blaine Irvin, Ashley Janssen, Justin Johnson, Keith Kadinger, Ben Katz, Jordan Keating, Vashti Knazze, Jon Krivo, Kassandra Langum, Michael Latterll, Drew Lerdal, Frenchy Lunning, Jade Mantis, John McCaffrey, Lyle Miller, Shane Nelson, Neil Niederkorn, James Norgard, Mccrae Olson, Mikhail Phiri, Phillip Porter, Nalini Ramer, Todd Randall, Harrison Reeder, Jonny Sadeh, TJ Schwingle, Bethany Sias, Randy Smith, Justin Staggs, Daniel Steinberg, Ben Thompson, Taylor Trygstad, Abraham Wangnoo, Lindsey Wangnoo, Aaron Winter, Jake Young, Joseph Young, Muja Messiah, Richard “Thrillhouse” Oxley, and Black Hulk Hogan along with the Twin Cities Rockabilly Crew. To anyone I may have missed I'd like to send that much more gratitude and appreciation. To everyone who help with the magic this year, I send my love and eternal thankfullness.



Above in it's entirety is the Winner of Best Picture at last year's Filmanthropist Project. A Thank You From The Heart, which was the first film I shot using my Sony HVR-Z5U. Lastly, with 2011 big things will come in small packages. Same URL, some other time, stay tuned.

"Sure, right now! You're darned tootin'!"



Seventeen inches of snow, the collapse of the Metrodome roof, and subzero temperatures. Indeed, just another Winter here in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and like any Minnesotan I know the sage continues!



I'm hittin' the home stretch in editing Jaded Rzeign's Get Wit It Music Video. Some color correction, editorial decisions, and timing tweaks are what remain. Also, I've been working with some fine folks on hammerin' out the first season of Antwone Adams scripts. A web series I'll be premiering to you all next year!



I've got a few more things to blog about before the years is out, so stay in the loop, everybody! Same URL, some other time, stay tuned.
