The Secret History are proud to present the second edition of Modern Problems party at the famed Williamsburg art space know as Galapagos Thursday July 24th. This edition is co-curated by friend and film maker Jacob Hensberry and will also include the debut NYC screening of his short film ‘21′, fresh off its appearance at The Seattle International Film Festival.
The evenings Modern Problems include…
*Revel Hotel’s second ever performance (featuring singer/actor Johnny Q. who also appears in ‘21′) This experimental neo-goth cabaret combines electronics and experimentation with the booming croon of Johnny Q. First rate post-modern song & spectacle…
*The screening of ‘21.’ A taught combination of hipster verite, uneasy surreality and pulp, ‘21′ walks you halfway across and tightrope and then lets go. A moody and jolting trek across the murk of the urban psyche.
*The Purse Snatchers. The brand new project featuring Doug Marvin of Dirty on Purpose, with able assistance, advice and Melodica-tooting by his wife Annie Hart (Au Revoir Simone.)

*The Secret History. Fresh off our appearance at NYC Popfest, and our amazing support slot with the otherworldly good Band of Holy Joy, TSH close the party with the songs, and sentiments only a concept art project about a melancholy skinhead in Palermo who gets beaten up for listening to Roxy Music in 1975 could…
Then it’s special guest djs all night!
Doors open at 8:30, entertainment begins at 9:00 sharp! Short-ish sets by interesting bands, great djs promote subversive and seditious bar chatter. A great short film. These are amongst the reasons you must attend!

Click Here to view the videos and the whole Deep Focus created micro-site.
Rob Graydon and the Vitamin M team got a chance to work with some wonderful people at brilliant young interactive agency, Deep Focus.
To promote Johnson’s new Melt Away Stress products, Deep Focus devised a micro-site with Glam Magazine. Female favorite celebrities were selected to give advice on how to deal with stress. Readers were invited to share their stories too.
It was great to participate in the branded content arena.

It was a multi-camera shoot at the band’s Knitting Factory show in L.A. Lots of fist-pumping, stage-diving and assorted chaos. Thanks to my camera operators: Ali Nusrat, David Carstens, Maura Milan and Matt Chavez. And my editor: Josh Crockett
