TMT

This past weekend was a blast shooting a new music video for The Mascot Theory in the historic Mineral Point Opera House in Mineral Pt, WI.

An amazing band and captured visually by some crazy talented humans:
Eric Tadsen on Drones and Banjo.
Jason Weiss on Camera and Maracas.
Brian Alberth on Camera and Recorder.
Vince Padilla on Still Camera and Theremin.

Thank you to these talented individuals for helping to make some cool art that should go nicely with a fantastic tune from TMT. Coming soon to a video playing device near you. To learn more about the Mascot Theory or to purchase their music, please visit:

To be honest, I didn’t do any heavy lifting here.  I think Mom Nature gets most of the credit.
