Girls In Black

I made this video with my friends its based off of an video of  incense and peppermints live performance by strawberry alarm clock done in the 60s but I messed with some aspects it matches shot for shot though! The images above are either preproduction references or unfiltered stills from the video. It was actually shot in HD but Rick from the band wanted it to look more "gritty" so I added a few filters and lowered the resolution. It ended up looking pretty good anyways. My sister Amanda did the makeup and styling on the lovely Avalon who did me the favor of sitting in for the video. Most of the footage was shot by my friend Priscilla in her apartment. 

Haven't posted in a while... but I have been working on a hand full of stuff so I'm getting back to putting it on this platform... Aside from doing odd jobs since I moved to Los Angeles I've been hanging out with my high school friends and their high school friends and going to a lot of shows and bars and film screenings- essentially most of my negative experiences in my past year can be summed up by Morrisey nagging: 

so......

I haven't read enough books, had enough bicycle rides, written much on behalf of art or theory and I haven't seen the sun- I didn't apply to the AFI and heaven knows I'm miserable now.

Have you noticed how many articles of clothing have women's names? just go to american apparel or urban outfitters or any other dumb online clothing store...I hate this new commercial trend- as if a spandex jersey top has intrinsic qualities shared with "heather", or a dress is just so "mandy" or "zoe". Whats the appeal of owning a dress named like some girl?.... It sounds like they are marketing the image of the gril wearing the dress by a name, or as if by wearing the dress you will become, mandy, heather, britney... is it just me or is this morbidly reminiscent....
