"Like a Free Bird"
Adam Hanna
Director/Editor/Camera: Cory Paza
Another video shot at some beautiful locations around Lakeville, MA.
"Cheers to Space"
Valerie Barretto
Director/Editor/Camera: Cory Paza
Production Assistant: Chris Fisher
This was a fun one to put together for country artist, Valerie Barretto. It's always a bit of a challenge to try to tell a story in under 4 minutes. Luckily we had some great actors and locations to work with.
"Higher Than the Moon"
Adam Hanna
Director/Editor/Camera: Cory Paza
Shot this video on a frigid night in Boston. Worked out great since no one else was dumb enough to be outside and we had all these popular locations to ourselves. Had some fun playing with the trippy VFX, too.
"Queen Bee"
Adam Hanna
Director/Editor/Camera: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Domitila Bonato
Camera: Ben Goodman
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
Queen Bee is a catchy, soft, pop tune that was recorded at Speak EZ Studios by Ben Goodman and myself. The story-line scenes were shot around beautiful Lakeville, MA and the performance scenes were shot at Mechanic's Hall in Worcester, MA.
"Friday 5"
Adam Hanna
Director/Editor: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Domitila Bonato
Camera: Zeen Rachidi
Lighting: Matt Wein and Jason Thomas
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
A straight up rock performance video that showcases Adam's high-energy stage show.
"Old Man of the Sea"
One Short Breath
Director/Editor: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Domitila Bonato
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
Here's a very cool video from the guys in One Short Breath. Not only did I get to direct this, but I was also asked to dust off my acting chops and had a blast pretending to be haunted on a creepy island last summer.
"Wouldn't That Be Something"
Adam Hanna
Director/Editor: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Domitila Bonato
Producer: Ben Goodman
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
Adam recorded "Wouldn't That Be Something" with Ben and me at Speak EZ Studios. It's a powerful song and Adam was looking for a powerful video to match. Though the lyrics of the song were inspired by his parents, we decided to keep the characters and imagery a bit ambiguous, allowing the viewer to immerse themselves in the story and make it their own. We had a blast with the cinematography on this one!
"Take me Back to Boston"
Josh David and the Funeral Puppets
Director/Editor: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Domitila Bonato
Camera: Ben Goodman
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
We had a blast working with these guys and got to create a creepy, voodoo themed set for this cool folk/rock tune.
"Freedum"
Alyssa Marie
Director/Editor: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Zeen Rachidi
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
A simple performance video with a nice, chill vibe. The 1st single off of Alyssa's record, "Deja Vu".
Live/Studio Performances
"Deja Vu"
Alyssa Marie
Director/Editor: Cory Paza
DP/Camera: Domitila Bonato
Produced by Speak EZ Studios
Executive Producer: Scott Benson
One of my favorite basic performance videos produced for Alyssa's "Thursday Session" series. Nothing too complicated, just smooth slider shots and a great flow that compliments the natural groove of the song.
