FRENCHIE from thismustbetheplace on Vimeo.

Produced and directed by Ben Wu and David Usui, of Lost & Found Films (lostfoundfilms.com).

Frenchie, Brooklyn, NY

Frenchie has owned Frenchie’s Gym, in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, for 36 years. The neighborhood keeps changing, but Frenchie’s not going anywhere.

THIS MUST BE THE PLACE

There’s no place like home. It’s where we live, work and dream. It’s our sanctuary and our refuge. We can love them or hate them. It can be just for the night or for the rest of our lives. But whoever we may be, we all have a place we call home.

THIS MUST BE THE PLACE is a series of short films that explore the idea of home; what makes them, how they represent us, why we need them.

We’re always on the lookout for dwellings of all sorts. If you’ve come across any curious or eccentric homes, feel free to send them along.

XENIA RUBINOS Taster- “Help” from Armando Croda on Vimeo.

This a video I just finished for the wonderful band Xenia Rubinos (keyboard) with Marco Buccelli (drums) and Adam Minkoff (bass). It was an amazing experience. This series is call “Taster” because there will be more tastes of the Xenia’s new record called “Magic Trix” that just came out a few days ago. The video was recorded in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NY this winter, with a 7D.
