Art Statement

Here's the thing. I grew up drawing and painting like crazy. I made bunch of paintings in high school but have since dropped that sort of dig for video almost completely. I never thought doing something so technical could really be art but hey if I'm the only one complaining why not? My mindset - the way I look at things- comes so naturally that I find a hard time understanding that people don't see things the same way I do. I never go out of my way to make things "artistic" just like i never go out of my way to walk or talk a certain way. I do what ever it is I want to do, and if people want to call it something that's fine by me.

Sewardly (day in the life)

A Term, coined by friend Tom Nguyen, to describe a genre of film that depicts the events of a single day in an extreme non-narrative fashion, and not necessarily in chronological order. We honestly have no idea how films such as this would be received by a stranger. Do you feel like you know us? Do you envy our life? Did you really sit through the whole thing? Probably not, but any ways this video includes Myself, Bryan Freitas, Jon Huffman, Tom Nguyen, Nicole is in there for a bit, and John Holdun shot and edited it.

enjoy!
