7-22-09_Parkour with Jason Knox and Crew shooting with Yi-Chun Wu

It's been a few months since I wrote on here. I will try to catch up on a few of the shoots I've done in the last year.

I shot this while assisting and being assisted by Yi-Chun.

Here are a few photos I shot with Jason Knox and the Parkour crew, Danger Lab, and members of Rukus NYC on location in the Lower East Side of New York City.

Yi-Chun and I shot and assisted each other on this shoot.

Michael Novak came back for another shoot with us, and I had met Natalie Lomonte earlier that day at STREB, as you can see in my previous post. Natalie used to be in Momix, Pilobolus and was currently in Parsons Dance Company at the time of the shoot.

I was finding it quite enthralling to compose the dancer, and use the strobe to place the dancer at the right time.

I went to see Pilobolus a few days before this, and met fight choreographers Jason Knox and Jess Mermelstein there.

They practice Parkour which is this really efficient way of moving through a city. Here's a really cool movie by Andrew Kornylak: http://vimeo.com/2541809

These folks practice at STREB in Brooklyn, NY. Some members from Pilobolus are part of the group.
