Some recent work I've done lately

I know I've been lacking in the posts lately but its not out of laziness, in fact I've been incredibly busy.

As you may know, Atlanta's superstar duo that is Footage Tape are putting together quite the extravaganza for the blade world on December 4th.

Firstly, for the past couple months, Jamie Olmstead has been steady hustling the new Be-mag project called 'Sideshow Rodeo' and from the looks of the trailer/things I've heard/things I've seen it looks amazing...to quote Kevin Dowling:

"...it's one of the best rollerblading videos I've ever seeen, its got everything."

I did the end neon sign end tag for the Trailer and this Print Ad:



This video will be premiering after Kevin Dowling's Hohohoes 2010...speaking of the Hohohoes, I designed some text for this flyer for the after party, which is going to be awesome, and I designed this poster that may or may not get used:

I have a lot of freelance work, outside the blade game, that I'm currently working on right now so things will still be a bit slow.

But I have a couple really awesome edits in line so be on the lookout for those.
See you doods this weekend!

Jon Cooley ShrEDIT

You probably haven't heard of this kid, which is a damn shame because Jon Cooley is nice on the blades. Ever since I've met this kid, he has been on up and up and constantly progressing. Jon is one of those kids that can skate anything anywhere with a level of confidence that makes you sick to your stomach. Recently, he became part of the mountain crew in Boone and its only made the kid that much better. You can definitely expect more from this dude because, as I've mentioned in earlier posts, him and Thomas do nothing but go to school and stack clips...well that and crazy mountain shit.

So without further introduction, here is the damn kid, doing the damn thing:

Don't forget the Spartanburg Comp this weekend, see you THERE.

Random Sessions

Well firstly, my new bud Chad Anthony was kind enough to do a little write up about me on his sweet tumblr/blog/radfacesite and you should definitely CHECK IT OUT, the dude had some nice things to say about me, and I love when I get a little limelight! haha

I am about to be so busy that I really want to post these up so they don't just sit on my computer forever.

These are from a late night session with homies Nate Macgregor, Nick Bates, and Tucker Freeland:







Then another random Sunday night we went to have a chill session and Garrett spotted this drop rail and laced a lot of tricks.

I posted all of the pics I shot of Garrett for his Southern Scum interview on my flickr as well. If you haven't read that yet I suggest you do.

Of those pics I thought this one looked pretty good in B&W:

That about sums everything up, I'm super close to finishing up this new Cooley edit and I hope to have it done this evening and online tomorrow...time permitting. After I finish Cooley's edit up, I have a couple of treats in store for you guys...I'll just need to find time to finish them, but either way stay tuned.

OH, this weekend only, Skatepark of Spartanburg is having a blade contest with $500 prize. From what I hear there are a grip of sponsors/energy drinks/and swag so make sure you make it out to that so we can have the first blade comp there go off with a bang. More info can be found HERE.

See you there doods!

Garrett Slobey Interview @ Southern Scum

Recently, Garrett and I have been shooting pics for this interview for him over at Southern Scum and the interview is up so head over to SOUTHERN SCUM and CHECK IT OUT.

While you're over there, be sure to check out the other articles as well, they have a couple really rad write ups.

Finished up Sideshow Rodeo GFX just now so it's back to blog business as usual, Jon Cooley is up next.
