Encinitas Tough Pug Pics: US Surf Team in Peru 2010, Rock n' Roll Pizza, surfboard swap...

(Editor's Note: Encinitas Tough Pug Pictures guru Jesse Schluntz is in the house with a new series on Team USA Surfing's recent Peruvian competition, a look at Encinitas pizza delivery rock n'rollers, and Cardiff's Patagonian Board Swap earlier this year, in separate videos...)

Hi there, I'm Jesse. My company is called Tough Pug Pictures. I got into this whole business straight out of high school because I'd started making surf movies. Since then (1995), I've had the privilege of working with many talented people & build up skills that have taken me far beyond the surfing world. I've been blessed to direct, produce, shoot and edit on many wonderful projects, and am currently enjoying the ride. Scroll around & check out my work over the years. Who knows, maybe we'll work together sometime...toughpugpictures.com...


USA Surf Team in Peru 2010 - Final Episode from Tough Pug Pictures > Jesse on Vimeo.

This project was a first for me. Over the course of 10 days, I shot & edited 9 webisodes for same-day upload... by myself. It was definitely one of the hardest work trips of my life, but well worth the challenge. Ian Cairns, the team Coach, was an indispensable Co Producer. Few people in the surf industry "get it" like he does when it comes to production.

DELIVERING ROCK N ROLL Sizzle Reel - 2009 from Tough Pug Pictures > Jesse on Vimeo.

Cinematographer Russell Brownley & I shot an 18 minute pilot of this show, which I finished editing at the beginning of 2009. Garrett Marks & Nathan Gerhard did the splendid motion graphics. The show's creators were Drew Rivera & Corey Edelmann. The entire project was done for around $15K. Despite meetings with MTV & Fuse, DRR was never picked up as a series. To this day, however, Russ & I view this as one of our grandest accomplishments.

 

 

PATAGOINIA CARDIFF BOARD SWAP - 2010 from Tough Pug Pictures > Jesse on Vimeo.

I absolutely love doing web videos for Patagonia. A great shop in a great community. The best part is they pay me in product, all of which is top-quality. See you guys again soon I hope!
