Hey everyone!!  Exciting news here at JNP Productions.

Since last time we wrote, we've finished the Brett Ellis video for "Sacred Life".  Check it out!!!

We had a lot of fun with Brett, and he has since mentioned he "cant wait to do another video" with us.  Stoked to be working with such a talented musician and look forward to future projects with him.

Recently, we were approached by Texas ghost hunters "Team Grim" about having JNP be the editor for their upcoming feature film "Within These Walls".  It's a paranormal, horror movie, and they thought our dark editing style would be a perfect fit.  I've read an advanced copy of the script and we are very excited to be doing the editing/sound design for this film.  As always, stay tuned as this project unfolds.  It is scheduled for a late 2011 release as of now.  To meet the gang at "Team Grim", click here.

Due to recording schedules, the upcoming "Aghori" video has been postponed until a later date.  We did get to hear an advance version of some of the new tunes, and they're killer.  Cant wait to work with our bro's on their next vid when they finish up their album.

Also, in 2 weeks, JNP is proud to be heading to the Big Apple.  Thats right folks, we are flying in to New York to cover the mighty "Ominous" as they get the opportunity to rock out the "MAIN F'n STAGE" of the TMT Metal Festival!!!  Can you tell we are excited?!?!  We will be following the band in a "day in the life of" style documentary that will eventually follow them right up on the stage to cover a few songs live.  With 20,000+ crazy metal heads enjoying 3 days of music and madness, this will be an event to remember.  Expect a late fall/early winter release of this, as of yet, untitled documentary.  To see the last video we did with Ominous, click here.

There is some other news, that would be a real "game changer" for us here at JNP, but as of now, the contracts are still being written, so we cant say anymore then that.  But you know, when it happens, we will be sure to let everyone know.

Its going to be a fun ride.  Stay tuned friends.

The new JNP video we did for San Diego rockers Canobliss is up.  Its for their song "Hit The Floor".  Check it out here:

We had a killer time working with these guys.  It was a long 8 hour day, but we got all the shots we needed and are very pleased with how it all turned out.  To learn more about these guys, check them out at canobliss.com.

We are off today to go film legendary guitarist "Brett Ellis" for his upcoming video "Sacred Life".  We are very honored to be working again with Brett and look forward to this video.  You can hear some of his music at brettellisguitar.com.

We are stoked because there is talk of doing another video with the mighty "Aghori".  After all the fun we had doing "The One" with them, we can't wait to do another killer vid with these crazy guys.  Check them out at myspace.com/aghorimusic.

And, if that wasn't enough, we already got a call from Denver Madman, Charlie Ricks of Spaceblues.net and he is cooking up a new idea for his next video.  After we just shocked some people with "Static Love"  we can hardly wait to see what he has in store for the next one.

As you can all see, it has been very busy for us at JNP Productions, but we will continue to keep putting out killer videos that artists can afford. 

Much love my friends...

Hey everyone...its been awhile huh?? 

Whats been going on with JNP Productions you ask??  Well, here is some of the latest...

1) We recently purchased the Shoot 35 "SG Blade" 35mm lens adapter from the U.K.  http://sgpro.co.uk/ This will allow JNP's new projects to be shot in a "true film" look.  This stuff is NOT cheap my friends, but we are very excited about the possibilities this will bring to our video clients.

2) JNP was recently asked to speak to the Art Institute of California San Diego.  They wanted us to cover how we started our video business, how we work with clients and how we have found success over the last year.  We wanted to keep everyone interested so, we brought in a humorous power-point presentation, and shared the things we learned.  Some horror stories, some funny stories, and encouraged the students that "you can make a living doing something you love".  It went over well, and we're probably going back again to speak next semester.  This was a very big honor for us.

Well, this is just the tip of the ol iceberg. Stay tuned for updates. 

Hope all is well with you my friends....

Hello friends... 

Just wanted to share the latest on whats comping up for us at JNP Productions.  As you could imagine, we've been busy with videos this year, and have a lot of upcoming shoots booked all over the U.S. this summer.  We would like to mention a few that we're real excited about...

First up,  ...the long awaited reuniting of JNP and the "Denver Madman", Charlie Ricks of Spaceblues.net.  The new song "Static Love" is finished, initial ideas have been shared, and soon a film date will be set.  Those who follow the work we've done with Charlie in the past will NOT be disappointed with this next "trip".  This video will be perfect to demonstrate our new 35mm lens adapter.

Then we are heading to West Virgina this summer to do the follow up video with New Jersey Metal Masters "OMINOUS".  This video is going to be shot at the TRANS ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM and feature some "famous" Ghost Hunters...hmm..who could that be??  Stay tuned to find out.  

Finally, after those trips, we're proud to announce a great San Diego metal band we will be working with.  "Canobliss" just set a film date with JNP to shoot the debut video from their recently released album "Man is the Enemy".  This album is killer, the band is awesome, and this video will be a new benchmark in JNP's music video portfolio.  We cant wait!!!

This is all going to be happening in the following months my friends. 

Looks like "no rest for the wicked..."

Cheers,

Now its off to Denver for another twisted tale brought to life between JNP and Spaceblues.

We look forward to an exciting 2010...

After our exciting trip to the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia to film a video for OMINOUS (see HERE) JNP has been busy working on its first ever, FULL HD demo reel.  Showing all the videos that have been filmed over the last year, this demo will help open more doors to exciting projects with great bands all over the U.S. 

JNP also just signed a new contract with Spaceblues.net madman Charlie Ricks for a new visual tale to the dark side of things.  We fly out there toward the end of November, so expect to see the 5th video from JNP and Spaceblues mid December. 

Looks like 2010 is going to be OFF THE HOOK!!!!!

Stay tuned for all the latest from JNP...  We're off to Philly in one week!

So we just wrapped up Day 1 of shooting for the new Aghori video,and we are f*ckin EXHAUSTED!  Yesterday was totally brutal!!! We had to do a lot of hustling to find the right location, and spent last week scouring the greater San Diego area for something that not only gave us the look we wanted, but someplace we could actually get away with blaring metal for about three hours!!!  Fortunately we got hooked up with the raddest spot imaginable, mere hours before the shoot was scheduled. We're looking forward to sharing this latest production with all you guys and we know this band is on their way UP in the coming year, so LOOK OUT...  check them out on myspace by clicking here.

If you're interested in being a part of this production, do we have an opp for you!  We are looking for as many extras as possible for our second film session next weekend, to take place in East County (SD). If you want to take part, myspace us,send us an e-mail at jnpproductions@gmail.com,orcall our business line at (858) 246-6788.  We can give you the lowdown and all you have to do is show up!
