:30 second spot for Threadless’s Winter Select line 2013.  We got up on a roof in Chicago with the skyline in the background.  Set up some drums and played 9 or 10 takes of live drumming.  The different takes where all cut together to make the :30 second spot look like it was shot with multiple cameras.  Shot with a 5D mark III and a 7D.  Edited together with Premiere Pro.
