The product of a week I spent at the Gulf Islands Film and Television School in 2008.

Here is Nick Swanson's part from Dirty Water. Myself and Elliott Vecchia put this video out in May of 2008. We shot it over a two year period throughout Boston, Paris France, and Brazil, with some Cali and New York footage thrown in there. This project was our first attempt at shooting a skateboard video. We both started off with GL2's and raynox lenses and quickly realized our mistakes. We then moved on and bought some better quality tools and went from there. The VX2100 with the MK2 was elliott's setup at the time, and mine was a VX1000 with the MK1. We both put a lot of effort filming and editing this proejct, and big props to the skaters too. It was a good learning experience for us all, and since then we've been able to connect with the local community to help promote upcoming skateboarders out of the East Coast.
