Has this ever happened to you? You’re driving down the road on a warm summer afternoon, street-spot scouting, and out of the blue, BAM! There is a perfect mellow down rail… with a perfect approach and perfect landing. Then as the session is just getting loose a security guard slowly walks over to the whole crew (with piercing eyes). Just as you are ready to pack up and escape the usual “sit on the curb” back ground check, the security guard mummers something…in disbelief, your mood brightens up and you take a deep breath because the guy just said “you can skate here, I just didn’t SEE you”.

This is exactly how I felt about the project “Do You Skate?” The entire experience was one serendipitous puzzle piece falling perfectly in place with the next. Some by coincidence, but most by sheer problem solving effort the project built momentum and became a collaborative video production piece somewhere between a skate edit and music video. The piece was specifically made for a younger generation You Tube audience. It was one of the most fun and exciting projects I have worked on since becoming involved with video production. Oh, and working with a total babe who skates was great too!
