CMS: Portrait of a Builder
« on: November 08, 2012, 04:31:54 AM »
Hey gang, here's the pilot of a series of portraits I'm directing. It tells the story about a man whose passion for self sufficiency and old parts might seem like an obsession to some. Subject of this first episode is Erik. He has over 70 Honda motorcycles (Monkees) in a big hangar, and over 30 different army vehicles.

I think it might appeal to some of you. Please let me know what you think! It has English subtitles, yes yes!

 Adam liberty vintage cycle - Adam Cramer- CAFE RACER BUILDER PHILADELPHIA, PA.
I like your film too. Have you seen Adam, he's my American hero, it's an older film. Now it looks like I have another hero from the Netherlands. These  guys are from a similar mold, one I think I can relate to, and it makes me happy to see them both, on opposite sides of the world, driven by the love of motorcycles, doing the things they do, because it has become who they are. It's a beautiful thing.

Hey guys, thank you so much. I really enjoyed making this video, it was an honor to film this man with such a large display of his passion. And no, I don't work for CMS in terms of a contract or a spokesperson. I'm a freelance film director and just happened to be able to land a few films with this company; loving it so far.

Adam Kramer was a huge inspiration from the moment I saw that video. It's so good, such a character. I was really enjoying making this video.

Hope you guys can share it! Tx
