ADAM FRANKLIN & BOLTS OF MELODY: SECOND MOTION RECORDS.

Absolutely amazing to get to work with Adam Franklin & Bolts Of Melody. Adam Franklin is the lead singer/guitarist of one of my favorite bands, SWERVEDRIVER. So, to get to photograph his new band was a bit surreal considering I've been listening to SWERVEDRIVER for about 20 years now! This group snap was taken at the Gold Star Bar in Chicago, for the new album "I Could Sleep For A Thousand Years". It's being released this summer on Second Motion Records.

Many thanks to Stephen at Second Motion, Adam, Josh, Locksley, Mikey and the Gold Star Bar.

Summer can't come soon enough!

DEMO: Columbia College: Game On.

Great cover story on Columbia's Interactive Arts and Media Department. Big thanks go out to Ann and Guido at DEMO. The faculty members from the department, David Gerding, Mindy Faber, and the awesome students who participated for the story. It's so amazing to shoot for the school you graduated from!

DEMO: Columbia College: Marlon West.

Photographed at the Walt Disney Animation Studios in Burbank, CA.

I knew Marlon West was cool when I walked into his office and saw a 2 tone Records postcard pinned on his bulletin board. Marlon West (B.A. from Columbia College'85), has worked on The Lion King, Pocahontas, Tarzan, Chicken Little, and The Princess and the Frog... which happens to be his favorite so far.

Large thanks to Marlon, Ann, and Guido!
