A Little Off Topic But...

I have a few friends who are really into the arts.  Brandon Smith and Tyler Costantino are two kids who I've known since I can remember.  Brandon is into filming and photography, while tyler is into music and producing.  Two completely different things, but both are useful in this industry.  While they are both young, they show serious skill in what they do.  Ty has produced mixtapes and currently works at one of the biggest studios in the country.  Brandon is taking off with his passions by studying at the Art Institute of Philadelphia and it is clear by his pictures and videos that he has a future.  Since these guys are friends of mine, I thought I'd show them some love and get their names out to an industry that they might not have thought of at first.

While it may seem odd, Music, Film/Pics and Surfing are very much similar.  All are art forms in their own sense.  Hopefully some aspiring artists in music, film and photography see this and open up their eyes to a new area of work.   

Brandon is in the process of getting a site together to post his work on, but from samples of his work, its going to be insane.  He has told me that he is definitely interested in taking pictures and video for surfing bits.  Here are a few shots he has taken.  Check out his facebook and twitter for updates on his work: Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/basmith00?ref=ts ; Twitter: @bAs808 

Tyler has been blowing up since high school; recently, after graduating from Full Sail University, he has expanded his areas of work and is working in different genres.  He is always looking for new talent to work with and expose to the world.  I'm sure if you are interested in getting together with him to work on music or music for a film, he'd be more than willing to talk to you.  Tyler wanted me to stress that he is glad to be helping out the environment by making his site green and doing all his work through the internet (payments, work and file transfers!) Check out his Facebook, twitter and new site for more information.  Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TyCoBeats ; Twitter: @ProducerTyCo ; Site: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1204104

Both of these are great kids and have some crazy talent, please give them a look and get in contact with them.
