Final trip across the Huey P Long
genre: documentary
runtime: 02:31
In April 2012, the old lanes of the Huey P. Long Bridge which had been in operation since 1935 were shut down in favor of the new lanes which began construction in 2006. I filmed Angie and I's last trip over it to preserve the unique driving experience that hundreds of thousands of New Orleanians dreaded on a daily basis.

The Worst Performance Ever
genre: live performance
runtime: 08:54
The problem with most "worst [x] ever"s is that they're usually crafted to still be entertaining in some kind of hyperbolic way. In 2003, Daniel, Bryan and I spent an evening figuring out all the elements that go into a truly awkward, obnoxious and awful stage show experience. Then we went and did it at the Neutral Ground Coffeehouse's open microphone night, breaking a spoon and shattering their tambourine in the process. We recorded it on cassette. Four years later I drew some really bad pictures to make this video you're either about to watch, or are about to close and forget you ever saw it. In any case, this is really bad.
