Spitfire Studios vs. Andy Sapp. from Andy Sapp on Vimeo.

Tripp sent me a cut of the footage they shot on the 22nd. It turned out RAD! The interior shots utilized a rollcage-mounted Canon 5D Mark II and a steering wheel-mounted Flip Mino HD camera. All the exterior footage was shot using a RED ONE. I can’t get over the quality from the 5D Mark II. I’m super stoked they asked me to be a part of this project. It was definitely a fun Sunday afternoon of shooting.

I designed this poster going for more of a SWAT feel than last years poster design. The photo I had to work with was cluttered with noise from low-light shooting, so it took a lot of retouching to make it look decent. I can definitely see this as a movie cover on the shelf at Blockbuster.

Unfortunately… this poster design fell victim to the chopping block, and got veto’d for print.

I met up with the crew from Spitfire Studios today to do some stunt driving. More details soon…

I was curious to see what kind of results I would get if I strapped my iPhone in the e46 and recorded a run using Dynolicious’ skidpad mode. The data is pretty interesting. I was surprised the lateral numbers weren’t higher. I suppose if I strapped the phone in the trunk that it would read differently. It is odd that the braking number is so high, because I don’t use the brakes… ever. I also found it interesting that the car pulled just shy of 1.0 G on accel.

Overall… I think this app is great. The timed run feature is very interesting, and extremely fun to use. More on that soon.

Keep an eye out for the comedic spin off the Strength Means Durability ad I designed for Advanced Armament.
This ad was a lot of fun to make, and is on newstands now.

Details about the SICKEST drift event to ever ignite Southern soil very soon.
Stay tuned…

Listening to “Beware the Circling Fin” by Early Man… I just unpacked the shipment of short-run Slide Styleâ„¢ Trophy Decks for this weekend’s double-header at Turner.

Don’t swim ashore just yet… this shark bite won’t hurt too bad.
