MAVERICK RENEGADE PRODUCTIONS

My third video for the amazing LostAlone and my fifth video to premiere on NME.com. As always I had a blast directing the guys. The performance stuff we shot in England and the outdoor in Berlin. I can’t say enough kind words about this band. They are amazingly welcoming, friendly, talented and really know how to look after their fans. This is a band that deserve to be in the mainstream for all to hear. 

The music video will be on most of the major music channels in the UK. Keep a look out for it.

My first video in which I get to hang out a car sunroof and film a mustang drifting around a scrap yard. This video was a lot of fun to do as are all my videos but this one in particular was special. Working with a seasoned actor such as Aaron McCusker who plays Jamie Maguire in Shameless was a great pleasure. The band were first class, my team was superb, everything fell into place and the entire shoot was a blast. 

Hey guys. I just realised I hadn’t put the video I did for LostAlone’s Do you get what you pray for on the site. 

This was a lot of fun to do. When I first got the track my first thought was “F**king Yes!” 

The band and I exchanged emails as to the look and feeling of the video. Claustrophobic, high contrast and deep blacks were the outcome. 

Steve Battelle (Lead singer) sent me a few pictures of a photoshoot he’d done with the fantastic Rob Baker Ashton (robbakerashton.com) to give me an idea of the look. 

I flew over to England at the beginning of September 2011 and had a blast with the guys shooting the video. Amazing bunch of lads that deserve all the success that’s coming their way. 

Silhouette’s Can’t Keep Up. 

When Shauna Tohill sent me a new set of Silhouette songs last summer my mouth dropped. She turned the pop dial to eleven. We’d been talking about doing a video for “Can’t keep up” since then and had met up several times but never really got to nail the concept. 

At the beginning of the year Shauna told me Discover Northern Ireland were using “Can’t keep up” as part of their NI2012 campaign.

The pressure was on to get a video sorted for the release of the single. Then I got the news she was going on tour with Snow Patrol and we had a few weeks to turn concept into reality. (I love a challenge)

I gathered a fantastic team together and we managed to get there in the end. 

Ever since Volume Destroyed and our trip to LA together Shauna has been a dear friend who I always enjoy seeing and working with. I have the privilege of working with the most wonderful people in this industry and Shauna is one of them. 

The follow up video to “Can’t keep up” is already in the works and is going to be amazing.  

The LostAlone videos have made it onto the Playstation 3 VidZone. Check out the trailer. 

The latest video for LostAlone. I have so much fun working with these guys. They deserve all the success in the world. Amazingly talented and the nicest guys you could meet. You know when you watch someone on television and wonder if they’d be cool in real life? these guys are. They are down to earth and have the utmost respect for their music and their fans. An absolute pleasure to work with. 

A special thanks to Gerard Way from My Chemical Romance for tweeting about the video. 

Catch the album on itunes next week. Every song is fantastic. 

The video is also in constant rotation on Kerrang, Scuzz and NME TV.  

Here’s the video I directed for Levity Breaks “The Floor”. A pleasure to work with and a great bunch of lads. 

Here’s the video I directed for Limerick band Senakah. These guys are amazing and some of the friendliest and most welcoming bunch of people I’ve met. The video stars American comedian Ben Morrison. Ben was the lead on Season 7 of MTV Punk’d. Excellent actor to work with. I had a first class crew on this video who gave their all and more.

What an amazing musician. I had a lot of fun working on this. 

After playing the MTV EMA’s in Belfast LMFAO and the Party Rock Crew took to the stage at the M Club to deliver one of the most amazing club nights the city has ever seen and Maverick Renegade Productions were there to caption the magic. 

Supporting LMFAO were Pure Flowz, Starboy Nathan and DJ Tez. 

A special guest appearance was made by Justin Bieber at the end of the night.
