Some Nutrition Tips

Yesterday Nelson gathered us around for some serious advice. It's not very often that he puts on his serious face, but it was clear he had something important to share.

"Huddle up everyone, bring it in. I've got something I need to share."

Nelson said he knew we had all been wondering where he got his moxy... where exactly his game came from. He was now prepared to show us.

As it turns out, it all starts with nutrition.

CORE Updates and More

CORE is still rolling strong, most recently picked up by Discovery Asia and KLM Airlines. Also, we have a few more live shows lined up for this fall, including one at this weekend's 10th annual Rocktoberfest in the Red River Gorge. If you're in the area, make sure to check it out!



Visit the event's website http://rocktoberfest2010.com/ for the full lineup events, and for more info on the festival. This year's proceeds will go to benefit the Pendergrass-Murray Recreational Preserve.

On a completely unrelated note, in our last post we announced that we will soon be sporting an uber-sexy, ultra-streamlined, and highly sophisticated new website. Well, here's the man who's gonna take us there- web designer and follicle-ally blessed, Mr. Keith Driessen.

Last week we cruised up to Aspen to shoot a fragrance commercial for our portfolio, showcasing the newest scent from Nolo Contendre, Source. Here I am scouting locations at the Maroon Bells with Art Director Colette McInerney. As you can see we were brimming with excitement! At least 20% more excited than the lurkers in the background!



That energy carried over to the day of the shoot with an early start. Temps were chilly and we forced our model to trudge gracefully through a swamp at sunrise, dressed almost exclusively in ribbons. She was a real trooper.



It wasn't until about 11am that Nelson began to sober up. Or maybe it was the ribbons that were just so intoxicating....



But, once he did it was definitely business time.



In the afternoon, we went up Independence Pass for some close-ups by the river, and then on to the top of the pass for sunset. Here are some shots to enjoy, including a couple still frames of video:








Keep an eye out for the finished commercial which will be up shortly on our soon-to-be-unveiled NEW WEBSITE!

The Coup

Listen. Stephanie "never did nothing to no one" so she says. That is why I thought I would start the ball of karma rolling. Sorry Steph, no hard feelings, thats just the type of fun and games we have around here.

Keith chimes in with an update

Today I got a very important video announcement from noted photographer Keith Ladzinski. What does that mean anyways... noted? Well Keith seems to think it's really something, since he always talks about how noted he is. I digress. Apparently there is a discrepency between Urban Dictionary's definition of the phrase 'no bones' and the true meaning. Thankfully, Keith is there to clear it up for us.




We like Keith and we're proud that he's our special buddy.
