New CultureSurfer videos for September 22-29, 2008

Why so many bike videos? The 2008 cyclng season is winding down, so this is when things heat up cycling-wise in St. Louis. We do plan to film some cyclocross soon, though, until it gets too cold to hold onto the camera-lol.

For you bike geeks out there, check out some of the approximately 15 videos we shot at the St. Louis Gateway Cup at the end of August. This is one of the top cycling races (4 day-long event) in the midwest, featuring some of St. Louis's coolest neighborhoods (including my crib, the U. City Loop).





The ladies of Team Revolution are so cool & are truly revolutionaries. As far as I know, they are the only women's pro (also amateur) team in St. Louis. Women's cycling is not getting the attention it deserves.




More for bike geeks... the 2nd annual Tour of Missouri pro cycling race, one of the 3 top cycling races in the US.



And lastly for the beloved bike geeks out there, our buddy & CultureSurfer photographer Dan Elavsky (this guy did an internship with a Sports Illustrated photographer!), got to ride along with Team Bissell. Dan did a great job alternating between 2 still cameras & our video camera to capture the following footage from the "Dan Cam."



Can you believe I am still uploading fashion videos from the Spring? I'm rushing to get the final ones online because the next St. Louis Fashion Week starts October 6th & we'll be there filming again.



Check out these 2 videos of traditional Indian dance that we filmed at the South Asian Heritage Fair in St. Louis. In case you're wondering Meghanna, in the purple, is only 8 or 9 years old.


For Indie music lovers, we filmed a little at the 2nd annual PlaySTL Fest. Check out Otter Petter's (Love that name!) "Rest of the World."


Finally, my friend Stan Chisolm, an extremely talented artist (onlu 22!!), a student at the Chicago Art Institute and native of St. Louis, brought some art and some of the artists he knows from Chicago for this fun opening.

St. Louis Fashion Week, Spring 2008

St. Louis Fashion Week videos

Here are two pics that Jeff took of me with 2 of the 10 or so designers that I interviewed. Fashion shows remind me of political campaigns from the standpoint of frenetic energy, so the still camera pretty much went by the wayside as we tried to just get the interviews filmed so we could get home and go to bed. On Thursdsay night, there were THIRTEEN designers, so the show ran from 9-1 in the morning. Jeff filmed the entire night (he deserves a medal for that) & I took notes on each and every designer during the show & then promptly forgot just about everything I had just seen.

Rochelle Rodriguez, a designer out of LA who designs very feminine, flowing dresses for women who actually have curves.:yes:
A video of Rochelle's designs and her interview are on CultureSurfer.com on the Fashion Page under PROJECT DESIGN.
Rochelle's site: http://www.rochellerodriguez.com/



LA designer Shay Wilson, creator of Kinetix Clothing (known for very cool graphic t-shirts). He's hot (used to be a model), hip (told me the term "urban" is out and "street" is in-lol),creative and WAY outside the box, very sweet, and the son of a minister (or preacher, can't remember the correct term). He is not Asian (Yes, I asked). p:

Michael is a music producer who is about to go into the pre-production phase of his first film, “Orangeburg.” The film is about a police attack on blacks students who rioted in 1968 on a St. Carolina campus. This happened before Kent state & not many people know about it.
