In case you missed it, which many did because it sold out two weeks prior, Pecha Kucha Vancouver – Volume #6 was last week and it was a home run! The line-up was amazing; great talks, powerful stories, and as always a lot of laughs and clanking beer bottles. A presenter that caught our attention was Jesse Savath of SALAZAR.
Jesse, a director and photographer, told of his traveling videographer days with Ben Harper (his cousin actually) and it was great to be reminded that committing to a creative endeavor in haste is always the right move. He had never used a video camera before. Ever. From the moment he committed to shooting the video to the first day on set he had one week. Wow. He bought the gear, flew to California, unpacked, and quickly read the manual (thank goodness Ben was late). In short, here’s a CREATIVEMIX shout out to Jesse and his passion for living the life of a creative regardless of the risk.
When it comes to his work it’s hard not to be impressed. Jesse is the producer of SALAZAR – a motion picture collective, a Vancouver-based film crew, and they produce some killer stuff. Don’t take our word for it, check-out a music video they did – it’s groovy:
