Everything from the interior design to the plating of meals has a certain aesthetic that we tried to capture in the videos we have created for them. We filmed over multiple days with two Panasonic GH4’s, trying to record the energy that Red has to offer. Co-owner Tanya Zhykharevich, was very willing to experiment when it came to the artistic direction of these videos; this trait of hers is no doubt a key factor in what made Red the successful restaurant it is today. Working with clients that are willing to try something new is always exciting, and often leads to results we could not have imagined on our own. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/562c4295e4b057e30c6abc89/1513056251103-2MK87R5SYTBUE3Q1TPGK/Thumb.jpg Film - SunPeak We find it's important for us to work with companies and brands that are bringing good to the world.

Being #1, I found Justin Bieber's "Love Yourself." It was a ton of fun to jam on so I decided i'd set up a few mics and cameras to see what I could come up with. This is obvious "over playing", but as a drummer I figure a drum cover is one of the few places overplaying isn't the worst thing in the world. I hope you enjoy the cover! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/562c4295e4b057e30c6abc89/1513090843790-XS2SZDINNHVK9QERX45Z/Thumb.jpg Music Videos - Cory Chisel on the Lady of the Lake Grammy award winning artist Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons were playing on the historic Lady of the Lake in Lake Geneva WI.
