A few months ago I had the opportunity to fly over to Oahu, Hawaii to produce a video for 9th Wave Gallery Artist Shannon O’Connell. I had never met her before, but it turns out that she is the sweetest thing you will ever meet.

We filmed a lifestyle piece and an interview segment to produce a documentary based video describing her plans to travel to Japan. This trip is fueled by her passion to spread Hawaiian based aloha to the Japanese people after the devastating earthquake and tsunami last year in the form of her art, painting, and love for everything that is beautiful.

I had a ton of fun working with Shannon and the project turned out to be amazing. Also had enough time to edit a 9th Wave Gallery video that was shot with a GoPro by my good friend and part owner of 9th Wave Gallery Ryan McVay.

Let me know what you think!
