Pearl Jam Twenty, Cameron Crowe’s retrospective of the rock group’s first two decades, airs on PBS' American Masters series on October 21st.
The filmmaking team of cinematographer Nicola Marsh and editor Chris Perkel blended archival footage and new interviews to tell the story of the band’s genesis in the Seattle grunge scene, its rocket to stardom, and its subsequent search for wisdom and balance. A surprising amount of film existed, included Super 16 footage of the band’s second performance ever. Lead vocalist Eddie Vedder often carried a Super 8 camera on tour. And many outtakes from music video shoots over the years yielded important story beats. Read the full InCamera article
Bob Gately became a horse lover when he saw Elizabeth Taylor and Mickey Rooney in National Velvet when he was 10 years old. Little did he know that later in life, he would shoot some rare and valuable motion pictures of horses.
Gately started bringing his Cavalier Super 8 movie camera to the Belmont racetrack in 1971, when an unlikely rags-to-riches horse named Canonero II was generating tremendous hype as a Triple Crown candidate. Canonero II had surprised everyone by winning the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes, and a victory at the Belmont Stakes would make the horse the first since Citation in 1948 to complete horseracing’s ultimate feat.
Of Armenian heritage, born in Baghdad raised in the UK and Canada. Now making a living between Toronto, Canada and soon San Francisco, California. After university I spent a year working as a junior art director for a small agency producing billboard, magazine and corporate press campaigns in Sydney, Australia. Truthfully it was a means to afford travel and experience…shortly there-after I left for Asia and Europe travelling with backpack. Lover of life, people, music, staying fit with Muay Thai Kickboxing, making short films, eating Pho & Thai food!
I make retro-chic super 8mm fine art wedding+lifestyle films at the company I cofounded MIMMO & NAZ INC.
Lola Video is made up of Gina (that’s me) & Josh (that’s him). We are a husband & wife team. I am the primary shooter & creative editor. As an artist loving different forms of medium, Super 8 film was a natural progression. I absolutely love its nostalgic look & feel as well as everything about it, right down to the sound the “vintage cameras” make when shooting.
Josh, on the other hand, is a music freak. He is constantly searching for newer up-and-coming artists for use in our films. Since there is no sound in the world of Super 8mm, Josh’s background as a DJ/SoundRecorder has become invaluable. Sound recording and capturing the audio from your ceremony vows is something I leave up to him. Then later, in the final edit I “sync sound” bringing the film & sound to life in a finished product you’ll want to watch over and over. Josh also second shoots for me and talks with prospective clients to get everything worked out in securing our bookings.
Forever Films, is a boutique wedding cinematography company. We are a company of working directors, cinematographers, and editors living and working in Hollywood.
Forever Films was originally started by Logan Hefflefinger, a film editor in Los Angeles. A romantic and artist, as Logan and his then fiance were planning their wedding he decided he could not bear to have a camcorder following them around on their wedding day. He wanted to tell a story of the wedding day from the bride, groom and guests’ perspectives. He wanted it to be beautiful and nostalgic. And so Forever Films began.
