Hey! Now you have a wonderfull opportunity to watch Mother Doesn't Bowl Anymore short film! It's directed by Teemu Nikki and shot by me!
I directed 3 tv-spots and shot stills for a Finnish fashion brand Seppälä. Check out the campaign site here. The project took almost the whole autumn: we shot the film in a huge chromakey studio located Vilnus, Lithuania. The post production was made in Talvi, in Helsinki Finland. They did a super job!
I've got my Cannondale SuperSix 2009 at the end of this summer. Really fast road bike! Now I fancy about this CC, which is soon to be mine! I went to the cyclestore (Velosport) yesterday to have a test ride with it. Damn it's beautiful, fast and light (comparing to my present XC bike GT Avalanche 1.0 Disc it's super light!). This is the bike for long winter training sessions in the beautiful Finnish countryside roads.
This is the most darkest period of the year right now in Finland. So it's always cheers you up when you see such colorful images as Rarindra Prakarsa does. Wow!
Jesus is back, now cooler than ever!
