The TIME 100 Gala was this week, and I can't stop thinking about how amazing that night was - mainly because I got to be in the same vicinity as Secretary Hillary Clinton, have a silly conversation with Stephen Colbert, and later do karaoke with Tilda Swinton. After the video team filmed the red carpet, we posed for a photo of our own. (photo credit: Almudena Toral)

Today TIME released the annual TIME 100 list. On it is Ai-jen Poo, the director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance. I'm a fan of hers, and was thrilled to be able to create a video portrait of her work.

I went to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden this morning. I buried my nose in lilacs, and took these pics.

Gillian Laub has a knack for seeing the real story in a trend. When Long Island ladies started going nuts for the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey, she knew she had to capture it. When I came on to the project as video editor, Gillian had shot an exclusive interview with the author, a very exciting book party, and several interviews with women describing just how juicy this book has made their lives. Such a fun project.

TIME just published another Game Changer video that I worked on with Bret Sigler. This video about power posing is a lot of fun because it resonates with everyone. Watch this and tell me you're not standing a little taller.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Just kidding, I don't care about it. Just a quick update about some fun stuff I'm working on. I've been shooting more, which is a welcome change from sitting at my desk editing. Here's a magazine companion piece on mixology that I shot with Almudena Toral (I used a Sony EX1 and she used a Canon 5D) and edited. Yes, we did get to taste the final product:

It was delicious.

I'm also working on a fun piece helmed by Jacob Templin, and for part of it, I shot an interview with Brooklyn band Apollo Run. The bassist snapped this pic of me at work.

Moody, eh?

Apropos of nothing: I found this great Soul Train video of Al Green singing Love and Happiness.

I love Al Green so much that I have a few friends that send me a message whenever a song of his comes up on the radio or the jukebox. Like a Bat signal.

Last week I worked with Time's photo department to create fourteen videos featuring some of the year's best performers on film. The interviews and portraits were shot by Sebastian Kim and his talented team. Here's a video of some highlights. Visit the Lightbox post to watch videos of the individual interviews...including the dreamy Michael Fassbender.

In December, I visited the University of North Carolina campus to interview Dr. Kevin Guskiewicz for our latest Game Changers video. Everyone was so nice and I learned a lot about the physics of football! Here's the finished piece, shot by Jason Dowdle and edited by Bret Sigler.
