Dan Statler Photography

自己紹介:

Dan Statler is an artist, photographer, musician, and film and TV veteran with credits on hit shows and blockbuster movies from Armageddon to Jimmy Kimmel Live. His work on Discovery Channel’s Monster Garage led to commissions for his one of a kind artwork from Rolling Stone and Entertainment Weekly. No matter the job, Dan’s unique vision is always on demand. Today he combines his love for music with his talent for direction by creating music video with his singular style.

The most recent offering from this multi dimensional artist is the music video for the premier Los Angeles rockabilly band, The Three Bad Jacks, for their hit single, “Crazy In The Head”. Commissioned by Monster Garage’s production company (Original Productions) for their website www.monstergarage.com, it has become the top played music video on the site.

The story is a mix of comedy and 50’s style horror films combined with the unbridled energy of the Jacks’ live performance. Working closely with the band, Dan scripted a story tailor made to fit the spirit of the song and the image of the band. Although the budget was tight, (the video was for the startup of the website) Dan was able to use the Monster Garage cars and props as well as resources available to the Jacks to minimize production costs and optimize production value to deliver a truly remarkable video.

Shot on 720p in two days, the video highlights the Jacks’ high-octane musical performance while combining Green Screen elements and staged vignettes to tell the story. Guest appearances by one of today’s top Pin Up models, Miss Dayna Deluxe as the sexy vinyl clad nurse, adds the necessary spice while demonic prosthetics and physical F/X deliver the Devil in all his hellish glory.

Shot to be “a direct descendant of David Lynch and Ed Wood”, the Crazy In The Head video is exactly that. Edited as well as Directed by Dan Statler, this video delivers a fast paced narrative laced with an element of humor that is completely in step with the band and their music.
