When a man's pants freeze as rock solid as mine...

It's been a long time since we've seen hide or hair of Jean Claude Van Damme. But it is encouraging to know that he has not just been living off the interest from all the millions he's made in the movies. With lines like, "When a man's pants freeze as rock solid as mine—let me tell you, my friends, even that was nothing compared to the ice-cold refreshment of a Coors Light. Man, my pants were tight." How could he possibly go wrong? Click the picture or click here to see the video.

Living in the Playboy Mansion is not all it’s cracked up to be. I mean, after all, look at all of the women that surround Hugh Hefner on a daily basis. Even he needs to get away from them all every now and then. Like the book said, Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. Sometimes you just need to bond with your compadres Click the picture or click here to see the video.

Now, if someone would forward this post to my sister, you will make her a very happy girl. Being the over-the-top Van Damme groupie she was back in the day.

Why was the Scandinavian spot IQ listed as Adweek's AD of the Day? OK, if that doesn't get you then how about this? How do you make a Ninja anti-drinking commercial? Click here if you can't see the video.

 

Well, after watching that you might just think twice this weekend when the barkeep says, "Drink up me Lads and Lassies". Have a great weekend see you next week.

Cheerio,

I Just Had My Lunch Eaten

Or, putting it another way…somebody ate my lunch while I wasn’t looking. I’ve been off work for a little while taking care of some personal/family matters. While I was gone someone from out of town took work right off the family's table, money right out of my pocket and food practically right out of my mouth. You’re probably reading this thinking; it serves him right for being gone. And to a certain extent you would be correct. However, if you’re in the photography business in the Detroit area I’ve got a news flash. I’m not alone, they took it off yours too. Actually it’s not a “they”. It really is a “she” and she is 17 years old, very talented and did a major automotive project this year.

I always said that a good rep’s job is to know what the client’s want before they know it. Communicate this to your artists. Motivate them to produce samples/ tests and then voila. The clients finally figure out what they want and you and your photographer are sitting there waiting for them with that “new thing” when they show up. I give props to this gal and her rep for having what the agency was looking for when the agency figured out what it was they wanted. I certainly missed this boat. Now if I could just find a 13 year old photographer…

While we are on the subject of not missing the boat let’s talk about still photographers who shoot motion. Or maybe, still photographers who don’t. Are you still (no pun intended) thinking about shooting that first motion project? Feeling a little trepidation? Perhaps a touch overwhelmed? Take heart Wookie! You are not alone. There’s a really good interview on the Photographers on Photography blog with Michael Winokur. I think you’ll enjoy his approach to the whole process and the candid comments he makes during the interview. Watch “Life’s Small Pleasures” on the blog or go to Vimeo and see it there. Now, if I could just find that 13 year old photographer and better yet one who shoots motion. Then…
