Man time flies like a mother fucker. Here’s a segment from the 13 episode short documentary series I produced and developed when I was producing content for Ogivly & Mather’s Global Youtube Channel between 2009-2012. Our goal was to show inspiration by talking with folks who do interesting things like Jack Rabid. It was an amazing opportunity and great way for me to take my fanzine sensibilities to a whole other level of storytelling. The series even was honored as a Webby Finalist and then went on to win a CINE Golden Eagle for online film series.
To date Create or Else is the most viewed content on Ogilvy’s main channel since I left the agency. Anyway, here’s the segment with Jack who was then celebrating 30 years as a independent publisher and now is has published his 77th issue of THE BIG TAKEOVER of a 200+ page music filled magazine! He’s been a good pal over the years and I was very grateful that he let me bring a 10 person crew to his brownstone in Brooklyn and risk messing with his credibility. He is an american treasure and he trusted me to include him in the segment about music. Working on the series overall was proving ground for this next film I am working on. Which I admit is even more ambitious than COE series and with way less money behind me as of this writing.
I’m fond of all the other episodes so definitely watch them here. They are short and to the point.
