Romania Teaser

For those of you who don't know, I'm in Romania shooting a short doc about a group of women who came from a church in Michigan to help take care of orphans in Brasov, Romania. We got here on Monday the 21st, and we leave this Tuesday the 29th.
I made a teaser video for the church in Michigan to play this sunday during service.

And I'll throw in some random 3D work I did for the agency I used to work for.

Hey guys! I just figured I'd post some pictures of a few of the things I've been working on. It's been really awesome over here on the other coast, although I wish we could assemble reunions easier. This year has been extremely busy for both mitch and I, this year should be a good one! Mike moved in and we occasionally have movie nights and cook dinners when our schedules permit it. Mitch, Mike, and Erik are kind of obsessed with these snickerdoodles I've been making so I have turned into a cookie slave I really hope all is well for everyone else, it would be really amazing if we could go to vegas or rent a houseboat to take out on a lake or anything sometime soon! I really cant believe how fast the time is passing, it's madness!
This is the view from the hiking grounds that are less than a mile from our house.
I had to make these really dumb pep rally signs for porcelain black.
This is from a toyota commercial, who would have thought the outside of a house would need a whole art department?
I decorated this cheesy rolling office. I actually found some pretty funny stuff for the bulletin board.

These above are from the glade commercial i just did.

Another dirty money music video that probably gave me sars, asbestos, and any other form of airborne disease because of the disgusting warehouse I had to clean snow up from.
this is the hero room for a girl named porcelain black, she is the female version of marilyn manson.
I work a lot with this company called riveting entertainment, it's always music videos but those jobs are with my favorite crew.
This is a picture from a dirty money music video, I've done four of his videos now and I can definitely say he is not the nicest man to work with.

These two photos are the before and after of the room I decorated for the subway commercial I just got off of. My designer let's me shop for all the set dressing and then when we shoot I also decorate. When the jobs we do are smaller I coordinate for him and make $350 a day!!!! I think thats really awesome because a lot of the time I only end up working eight hours.

So I had this idea....


So I was thinking.....Since it looks like everyone is basically going to be living in two locations of the country, it doesn't seem likely that we will see the people from the opposite region in the near future....So I give to you my plan to solve this problem.....

VEGAS around January.....

Who's down?

Or anywhere really

Updates

I've also been meaning to do this Shanna, but I've been crazy busy lately. so here is my update.

So I've been working for a studio in Boston called coBrandIT part-time. We've been working on a series of web commercials for The GM Auto Show that took place in detroit, as well as some videos for FIAT and Dodge. We also have the contract to do all of the web stuff for PUMA. So I've been editing and coloring and making motion graphics part-time for this place as the jobs come in. I've uploaded some of the videos to my website/portfolio if you guys want to take a look. joelyeaton.com

I also recently found out that I was being let go from my job as the Marketing Manager of the local independent movie theatre I've been working for. There has been a budget deficit for a few years, and because of this they are basically outsourcing my job to a design studio in NH that has a staff of 60 people and it will only cost around 10% more then they are currently paying me. I can't blame them you know? Having a much bigger staff on call for about the same amount of money is something I can't compete with.

But right when this happened I was asked to come to a group interview with the Apple Store, Boylston Street in Boston which is Apple largest store in the US at the moment for a Creative Position. I was one of one hundred asked to come in for the interview out of 20,000 applicants. I went to the group interview and was asked to come back for a second interview. I then made it through 2 more interviews with apple for a total of four interviews for this freaking position. I'm sure it would be easier to get a position with the CIA then with apple. they did a hardcore background check and everything. I ended up getting beaten by one other guy for the position, which kinda sucked, but I'm in the database now for new jobs and the hiring director is sending my resume to other stores in the region.

The best news came today, when I found out I'm being hired by Suffolk University as a Freelance Editor. This seems like a sweet opportunity and I'm very excited about it. I will potentially start next monday.

I hope everyone is finding success, and fantastic times. I miss you all and I am trying to save up money so I can visit at some point in the near future. Love you guys.
