Andrew Cutraro, a newer addition to the Redux family, brings a lot to the table creatively. Here’s a little taste of what he can do in the realm of video and the process of how it was made in his words;
LITTLE CRIMINALS by Jon Hardy & the Public from theFOUNTAINstudio on Vimeo.
6,500 stills and one hour of 1080p HD footage shot on Canon 5d and 5d Mark II cameras to produce the final product, which weighed in at a staggering 30gb! Shot entirely on-location in the basement of a single story ranch home in South St. Louis over three days and two nights.
“We went through 8 lbs. of glitter, 6 lbs. of confetti, one guitar, two amplifiers, a drum set, two suits (Men’s Warehouse and Syms), a pair of Stacey Adams shoes, three gallons of black matte paint, two cans of spray mount, a woman’s wig, one disco ball, 4 lbs. of ash, 8 lbs. of potting soil, two cases of Budweiser, a fifth of Makers Mark, four packs of various cigarettes, two interns from Webster University, a domesticated fern and a tree branch from what we believe is a maple in the back yard.
“I worked with Tony Gaddis and Jon Lutjens to produce the piece. Both men I’d worked with before at the venerable agency CORE, but they have since moved on to other ventures. I collaborate with them as often as I can. Just about everyone whoever worked at that agency is a genius for some reason.
“Gaddis directed it and Lutjens edited and did the treatments in Final Cut Pro and with some secret software he’s been developing. As Director of Photography, I was in charge of the look– but titles are misleading; we all cross-pollinated the production.
“The concept evolved over a few months of weekly planning over the phone and iChat — sharing story boards and testing concepts and scouting. But, mostly, we had a fairly loose spine of an idea of what we wanted to accomplish in theory — always leaving room for discovery and serendipity — which is the way I like to work.
“With all the traditional media collapsing around us, we are often missing the bigger picture — we are in a golden age right now. Creativity, collaboration, production and distribution have never been so democratized. We can do things fresher, smarter, quicker, and cheaper than ever before. A day after the video was released I got a message from the guys “What’s next?”
“The answer is: “stay tuned there’s more to come.”
We truly hope so.
