Jonah’s Reel: 2010 – July 2011
This is the reel I’ll use on film school applications if they want a sample of my work in this format.
Thanks to Marigold for the music.
Where have all the flowers gone? – Music Video for Peace and Love
Jesper Heed, the owner and founder of Peace and Love, worked with the Band of Peace to record a cover of Pete Seeger’s “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” and asked me to create a video to go along with the song. I accepted the assignment and assembled a video with footage I had shot in Borlange.
The video was mentioned in a post on Peace and Love’s online news feed.

Construction
The Peace and Love Festival is the largest festival of its type in Sweden. There’s a lot of work to be done to prepare the festival grounds for the estimated 50,000 visitors this year. The Shaman jumped in and helped out with the construction project in this short promo.

Human Peace Symbol
One of our tasks at the Love and Peace Festival is to create massive human peace symbols. Mattias and I have been working hard to organize the events, which will take place during the festival next week.
This page on the Peace and Love website has all the information.

Peace and Love 2011
I am currently in Borlange, Sweden, working with the Peace and Love Festival producing videos with Mattias Kraemer. We are creating one complete film documenting our experiences in Borlange this year, as well as several shorter videos and promos for the festival. I’ll post videos as soon as they are available online.
