Chase Jarvis 60: Reggie Watts [+photos and BTS]

Living at the Ace Hotel New York for 5 weeks has the benefit of getting to connect with the amazing cross section of people & culture. Enter: Reggie Watts. I've got a ton of respect for Reggie. He's a genius musician in a comedian's skin, who moved from Seattle to NYC a short while ago as his career exploded. The LA Times called him, "Deliciously strange." New York Magazine called him, "Spectacularly original."... read more ›

chase jarvis LIVE: We Are Augustines Re-Watch

This was one of my all time favorites episodes of chasejarvis LIVE. Brooklyn-based We Are Augustines swooped into the Garage and--in between sharing amazing insight about struggle, creative vision, and inspiration--played an amazing, emotionally-charged set for us. We then followed up with a live photoshoot for forthcoming promo material for the band and release of their new album. BTW, when you realize that you want to buy their album, sit tight. It'll be... read more ›

chase jarvis RAW: making pokemon with the presidents [video]

[note: this is behind the scenes - the finished vid is below...] Ever since I was a kid I've envisioned shooting videos the old way...the "practical" way where the moves and gimmicks, the set changes and the moving walls happen in camera, in real time, and real space, as opposed to the numerous luxuries we have nowadays in post production.
