I was given the opportunity to direct an official Foo Fighters music video as part of the "This Video Sucks" contest: With a small budget and a very short time frame the cast, crew and I produced this video.  Shot on the 5D and 7D, under the Williamsburg Bridge in Brooklyn, NY and at Parlay Studios (www.parlaystudios.com) in Jersey City, NJ. The story begins with a man leaving a bar at 3am. A crazy adventure ensues as the man tries to make his way home that night. Video premiered on Fuse on April 15, 2011 during the Foo Fighters music video takeover: It premiered online May 10, 2011 on foofighters.com: As well as the Fuse website: CREW: DIRECTOR Nicholas Spaventa ASSISTANT DIRECTOR Jasmine Insignares PRODUCTION MANAGER Peter Frisa DP John Welsh III AC Bill Bishop GAFFER David Mattson GRIP Brian Patierno EDITOR Shar Adrias VFX Get-Kinetic VFX PRODUCER Kathryn Lahr VFX ARTIST Daniel Gauthier PRODUCTION DESIGNER Amy Bishop ART DIRECTOR Chelsea Michaels ART PA Mark Weinheimer ART PA Ali Marx MAKE-UP ARTIST Mia Bauman MAKE-UP ASSISTANT Arnee Dodd HAIR STYLIST Clara Cole HAIR ASSISTANT Melissa Garner PA Janice Liu CRAFT SERVICES Jacqueline Jones-Gross CAST: LEAD Bill Dawes VIRGINIA Mandy May BURGLAR James Blankenfeld PIZZA AVENGER Tyler Ham Pong KABUKI GIRL Noriko Sato THE MYSTIC Erin O’Brien CYBERTRONIC Brian Walters KEY MASTER Luke Mulder WATCHMEN #1 Patrick Shane Whitehead WATCHMEN #2 Russell West WATCHMEN #3 Richard Wisneski WATCHMEN #4 Joshua Johnson WATCHMEN #5 Jesse Murphy WALL STREET #1 Michael Robert Young WALL STREET #2 Frank Marabeti WALL STREET #3 Robert Stone WALL STREET #4 Nicholas L Spaventa WALL STREET #5 Bill Mac Foo Fighters "Arlandria" Wasting Light Sony / RCA 2011
