Trailer-George Lucas film about legendary Tuskegee Airmen. @RedTailsMovie Terrence Howard @NeYoCompound @Methodman #redtails

Posted on 08 November 2011 by jnu

Last night I attended a screening of DOUBLE VICTORY at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture

The Lucas documentary Double Victory showcases the Airmen’s triumphs amid the adversities of Jim Crow and segregation in the U.S. military. Narrated by Gooding, Double Victory goes inside the lives of many of the living Airmen, recounting stories of racism within the military alongside the Airmen’s tenacious heroism.

Lucas’ Red Tails, which stars Gooding and Howard, takes the stories of the Airmen from textbooks to the feature screen. After the project was rejected by all seven major Hollywood studios, Lucas decided to pump his own money into producing and promoting the movie. Continuing the high-energy, big-action legacy of Lucasfilm, Red Tails goes beyond being a mere history lesson, enlisting CGI and other special effects to create an energetic movie-going experience to illustrate the journey of the Tuskegee Airmen.

After more than 20 years in development and production, Red Tails is scheduled for release on Jan. 20.Double Victory, which was recently screened in Washington during the 2011 Congressional Black Caucus Annual Legislative Conference in September, is scheduled to be released soon.

Master of Photography-Albert Watson & The Macallan @the_macallan

Posted on 29 January 2011 by jnu

Last week I attended an event at Milk Studios for The Macallan & Albert Watson Present: Masters of Photography: A Journey.

The series is a limited edition set of special Masters of Photography bottles of Macallan paired with platinum prints.

I actually got a chance to chat with him  about the photos during his journey between Spain and Scotland, while enjoying the 18 year old scotch (responsibly of course)

The Macallan came to me with the incredible story of the Spanish sherry oak casks used to make their single malt and asked me to interpret this as a photographic art project. The freedom and encouragement given to me allowed the creation of a visual journey demanding complete artistic integrity.” - Albert Watson

By the way, Albert Watson was born in Scotland and doesnt drink…lol

Anton Kandinsky

His work speaks for itself. He is probably best known for this photo of Alfred Hitchcock

Among others

Monkey and Gun

Naomi Campbell

Jonn Nubian-macallan

This is me drinking responsibly. :)
