A couple of weeks ago a video started floating the web entitled The Archive, about an older man who over the span of his life had amassed over 1 million records in his personal collection. When I made the time and finally watched it, I was blown away. The film takes a sensitive look at a man who’s love of music all but consumed him, yet fueled a passion unparalleled by ANYONE.
The following morning my homeboy Tat Ho Yee sends me a profile/video about an up and coming Director of Photography based in NYC named Ed David who’s been doing some nice work. I click play and quickly come to realize Ed David was the DP who filmed The Archive. The good folks at DEFGRIP, put together a really nice look into how + why David began his cinematic journey. Looking forward to more great work by a fellow NYC filmmaker.
Also included is another beautiful short profile piece filmed by Ed David called Lessons from a Tailor, about a Jewish immigrant who moved to New York and started a tailoring business.
Enjoy…
