Banks Journal
Last month, I directed, filmed, and edited this short film about Oahu based photographer, John Hook, for Banks Journal. John and Banks Journal collaborated on a limited run of photo tees that feature photographs shot by John while wandering through Waikiki, Oahu.

Earlier this month I documented a new mural that Florida-based artist, Ty Williams, painted on the Banks Journal US HQ in Newport Beach, CA. This short film offers some insight into Ty's creative process and the new style of painting that he's been experimenting with over the last year.
Banks Journal had an unveiling party for the mural last Friday at their inaugural "Casual Friday" event. Drinks were provided by Vacancy Coffee Bar & Pabst Blue Ribbon. A special thanks goes out to Ty and the Banks Journal crew for supporting this rad project and event.
This short film entitled, Kahana Kalama ~ Volume 1, is an introductory piece about Aloha Beach Club co-owner & Banks Journal Comrade, Kahana Kalama, his surfing, and how he splits his time between California & Hawaii.
Aloha Beach Club hosted the film's premiere earlier this month at the North Park Flagship where refreshments were supplied by Coronado Brewing Company and Guayakí Yerba Mate. There was also an afterparty featuring a live performance by Los Angeles based band, SPINDRIFT, at Seven Grand San Diego.
A big thanks goes out to everyone who made it to the premiere, the crew at Aloha Beach Club for hosting, & the Banks Journal team for supporting the film and event.
