I'm not even from NY, but I think it needs to be firmly established that the guy is basically the best filmer on the circuit right now. Well..I'll partially rescind that; I'm not talking about literal cameramanship, but more as an actual filmmaker/creative director, who just happens to pitch in for filming duties in a kind of old school, Socrates Leal/Aaron Meza way. The guy's behind 'Gnar Gnar', 'Dizzy', 'Lurkers 1', 'Lurkers 2', countless great montages on quartersnacks.com, he relies heavily on great music like '60s girl groups and Sam Cooke and shit, he runs a mean teal Billy Waldman T-shirt, and he even spent time in the can for some silly shit involving an SUV and a stolen piece of art-porn.
This is my letter of recommendation for Mr. Sagalnik to the industry at large. Lakai, if you want to avoid the 'Yeah Right!' backlash all over agin, hire him as your music supervisor and let him re-edit your video.
