Thank you to the 220 Congressmen and women courageous enough to vote for this historic legislation. Now, even those conservative extremists so adamantly opposed to this legislation will be covered...pre-existing conditions and all!

Godspeed, Alexander McQueen

noreply@blogger.com (Launch Team) — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 16:22:00 +0000

We are saddened to learn of the death of Alexander McQueen, one of the truly great fashion designers of his generation. Our thoughts are with his friends and family at this difficult time.

I remember being in London in '98 for fashion week, and being absolutely schooled by Alexander McQueen as I watched him send horns, feathers, and alligator-spined longcoats through a vignette-lit warehouse of dirt and burning automobiles. Completely blew my mind. I like that he was an anarchist. It showed even in his most refined work. Sadly, another cowboy gone.

Godspeed, Alexander McQueen.

The Black Crowes "Cabin Fever"

noreply@blogger.com (Launch Team) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 21:50:00 +0000

A good friend of ours, Masashi Ohtsu, did some camera work and editing on this DVD project for The Black Crowes. Directed, filmed and edited with Matthew Mendenhall. We're really impressed with the work. We're also really into the idea behind this whole project -- The Black Crowes hole up in Levon Helmes' Studio/Performance Space to write, perform and record live....a brand new set of songs. Amazing.

Un-Convention Holland 2010

noreply@blogger.com (Launch Team) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 18:23:00 +0000

Rocket Garage founder Lance LaBreche has been invited to speak on a panel at this years "Un-Convention" in Groningen, Netherlands...just days before the official launch party for Rocket Garage Amsterdam! He will join others on a panel titled, "Music for brands and companies - selling your soul?", which should be a frank discussion on...How making music for a paying customer can help your career, or help you establish a continuous flow of income without selling out. Panellists talk about their experience and give you their do’s and don’ts.

So, what is Un-Convention, you ask?

Now Representing Spawn

noreply@blogger.com (Launch Team) — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 14:52:00 +0000

We're psyched to be be representing Spawn. He's been around for a bit, and is probably best known for his appearance in a CK1 ad. But, we also like the fact that he's worked with some of our favorites--Fabion Baron, Richard Burbridge, Ruven Afanador, etc. Most of all, we just think he fits. Welcome aboard.

This Should Blow Your Mind, Earthling

noreply@blogger.com (Launch Team) — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 16:17:00 +0000

We wonder who will be the first photographer to do a fashion story aboard Virgin Galactic...Testino? Meisel? We vote for Nick Knight with Alexander McQueen styling!

Authenticity, Anyone?

noreply@blogger.com (Launch Team) — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 14:39:00 +0000

When it comes to digital, there is an obvious distinction between 'cleaning-up' a photograph, and all out modification. If the future of fashion editorial is going to be left in the hands of digital tech's...we're in big trouble. What is the point of actually using human models? Editorial worth looking at is created through great clothing being styled by knowledgeable editors and photographed by talented photographers on models who can dramatically convey the attainable attributes of style and beauty to a broad range of consumers. Somewhere along the line, it seems, many print magazines have gotten lazy and the plot has been lost.

If you ask any recording engineer worth their weight, they will tell you that no matter how many times they mix and master a bad album, in the end it's just going to be a bad album that's been mixed and mastered well. Clearly, media of all varieties need to give more consideration to pre-production, so the post-production doesn't have to be as intensive.
