But this time, in front of the camera

13 07 2025

Occasionally I get the chance to ride my bike in front of the camera. Through a lot of my industry connected friends and my years of experience on the bike, I’ll get a call. But when Seth rings, I truly never know what to expect, except a good time!

Back to my roots

13 07 2025

Growing up in the action sports world, it felt great to get back on set with long time friend and DP Will Stroud and BMX legend Ryan Nyquist. I even picked up the camera for a couple shots in the video. Had a good time jumping in with the crew, building jumps, riding bikes and recording sound. Dare I say it, the perfect job? Thanks Bobcat!

They call me the drifter

“Hey Michael, you available for a shoot next week? We’ll have 2 guys in a car so it might be going out of range for your wireless at camera, can you handle something like this? There will be a GoPro camera in the car as well.” Thats the email I get. My job is all about problem solving and as I’m reading the email ideas are already flowing. My solution flows like a river in a quick reply all, signed, “lets rock and roll!”. And rock and roll we did!

Making the news!

8 08 2012

Once again I’ve somehow managed to get my bearded mug onto local teevee. Last time it was with the ESPN crew while shooting ESPNu’s roadtrip in Blacksburg, VA. This time while shooting the travel channel show Food Paradise, good friend and awesome DP Jason Dowdle of Blue Sky films and myself were captured while we did our thing down in Greenville, SC.





Promo items arriving this week!

11 04 2012

Fresh threads and sticky stickers will be arriving at Mangler Mixer world headquarters this week. If you’re at NAB next week in Vegas hit me up. I’ll have a small number of shirts and large bounty of stickers for the hand outs. I’ll get a paypal button setup shortly for shirts. I can only afford to give away a certain number as I’ve went baller status and had them printed on American Apparel tri-blend shirtsΒ in athletic grey. Shout out to my homies over at Mindsetgear for their screen printing skills and Contagious Graphics for their awesome sticker printing.
