Graham Fielder

Graham Fielder
There are times when the blog just rolls off the keyboard.....

I was in Lexington, Kentucky yesterday working on a project at the Magic Frog Studio.. I knew that my friend, Tom Fielder, had a son who is, amongst other talents,  a videographer and had made several music videos over the past few years. Being a school day, I asked Tom if he could come by and shoot a bit of 'the making of' footage for the project I am working on. I knew how talented Graham was as he has previously come out on various road projects I working on to shoot archival footage. But I had never actually watched him work in close quarters.

The point of this post is how wonderful to see a young man follow a dream and in a very humble way......taking nothing for granted....always well mannered and a fly on the wall - which is difficult at best with the video gear he was using.....It will be fun to watch him over the coming years to see what he gets into - whatever it is I am sure it will be successful...Graham kindly posed for a few test images - one of which is above.

Graham had a video premier last night on YouTube:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Spy9SiOPDCg. There are several Graham videos on YouTube but the 'Motives' video was last night premier...


PS: Did I mention Graham is high school senior and 17 years old.....I am a huge fan....

  3. Graham's parents are certainly humbled by Harry's kind comments and, more importantly, extraordinarily grateful to Harry for the influence he has had on Graham's life as a photographer and videographer. Harry has coached Graham - and provided amazing opportunities for Graham to shoot stills and video of some incredible artists. Thank you Harry - from two proud parents - Tom & Elizabeth
