Taking the show on the road

We spent the weekend a couple of hours south of Wilmington in Dewey Beach, DE, a small town notorious for its wild summer bar scene. You may have witnessed a bit of the madness in the April Bud Light video, which took place at the most popular bar there, the Starboard. We did a double shoot in Dewey this weekend, capturing more drunken craziness that you will have the opportunity to see in July and August.

On Saturday night we followed a team of professional surfers around to a series of bars where they greeted their fans and signed surf boards (although, to be honest, hardly anybody knew who the surfers were). During mid-day Sunday we revisited the Starboard for what they appropriately call "Suicide Sunday." I've never seen so many people intoxicated at 1:00 in the afternoon (but the 4th of July in my hometown has come close). It was difficult to get any intelligible interviews, but I still think the August video is going to look great. It was our first day-lit shoot so that should at least distinguish it from anything else we've done.

It was a good weekend. R and I got some beach time, went out for some excellent Japanese food, and had a free place to spend the night only a few blocks from the water. Now we're home -- work is off to a busy start, and I need to set aside some time to edit.
