Check out what happened in 2011 and Moth to Flame’s goals for the new year!! Lots of new things in 2012. Many accomplishments in 2011, but we are already looking to do bigger and better things in the new year. If I didn’t mention you, I am sorry! I did this really fast. Off the top of my head, I totally forgot to mention David J Anderson for redesigning the Moth to Flame logo and Shannon Deane who continues to help me clean up my messy sound.

My friend Becka asked me if I could help film the Big Reds and Bubbles event, hosted by the Wine and Food Foundation of Texas. The moment she said free food from the best chefs in Austin and free wine, I said of course. It was a beautiful event with booths from different restaurants in Austin and over 100 different types of wines and champagnes. I ate way too much. The event took place at The Driskell Hotel and was packed the entire night. My favorite food item of the night was definitely the crab cakes made by Truluck’s. I…

Moth to Flame and coloredlion.com teamed together to capture Nick and Emily’s beautiful wedding. Nick and Emily approached my friend Daran Herrman from Coloredlion.com to capture their wedding in October 2011. Daran had done an amazing job with their engagement photos that they wanted to work with him again. Because Daran knows what’s good for him (just kidding), he contacted Moth to Flame to do the video portion. Daran and I filmed the entire day starting from 11 am to 2 am at night, capturing moments with the groomsmen and the bridesmaids getting ready, to the ceremony, and the party….

  Everyone in Texas goes to HEB! HEB picked Moth to Flame to do a spec! HEB picked Moth to Flame as one of the 20 filmmakers to shoot a spec for Web and TV usage, targeting Texas moms, showcasing some of their products. I thought to myself, what better way to showcase HEB’s food than to film a real Texas family having a good time? I immediately contacted my friend Emily Albino, whose entire family uses HEB and are born and raised in Texas. Moth to Flame recently shot Emily’s wedding video with Coloredlion.com. Make sure to also check…

Do you have the biggest balls of them all? Check out this video Moth to Flame did with bigroundballs.com. During the last month of my time in LA, my life has been take over by a guy named Nic Putnam. He is an incredible filmmaker and now a great friend. I guess you really have to appreciate each other’s company in order to stand working with each other until 4 am for 15 hours straight, 5 to 7 days a week. Nic Putnam is from Fat HamPsters Productions as well as True Colors Productions. When I first figured out he…

Back in March 2011, Hassan F. Johnson of ThaTrunk partnered up with director, Christine Chen, to create a mini-documentary series to kick off the launch of ThaTrunk.com.

The documentary was filmed during a span of a week and follows Drastik and his band “The Circle of…

Want to know what going to business school is like? This is the UT official "Gettin' My MBA" Music video - parody of Lonely Island's "Jizz in my Pants". When I first came to business school. I already knew that I wanted to a make a parody about it. I suppose the idea came from watching all the parodies made by medical and law schools, but very few for business school.   I figured it was a way to get to know my classmates and to practice my craft. The original concept was supposed to be based on the song...
