Virgin America + Canon EOS C300 + Music Video + BTS

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

For the months of February and March, you can find my “C300 = Awesome” video playing on all Virgin America flights via the Boing Boing channel. It’s my first time that I know of where anything I’ve made has been on a plane! I love Virgin America, so I’m very excited about this.

Also, after the release of “Canon EOS C300 = Awesome” video, Canon USA offered me an opportunity to shoot “whatever I wanted” on a newer prototype C300. This would be my follow-up project, so I really wanted to play to the camera’s strengths in a real production environment. I also wanted it to be weirder than the first video.

My friend Sam and I had been wanting to do an insane music video for MATH THE BAND for a few years now, and the project seemed like a perfect fit for the camera. It’s been years since I’ve been able to do anything I wanted in a video without interference from anyone, and I’m happy to say that I dig the results. We hope you do, too.
