  • Blood & Oil is a short film I have wanted to shoot for some time. It speaks to all avenues of passionate endeavors and the common thread of desire, determination and relentless pursuit it takes to see them through. That feeling that wakes you in the dead of night, the call to action that courses through your veins. It doesn't matter what you do or what your passion is, there is always room to be challenged, to grow, advance and to be more inspired.
    With that heart and intention, Blood & Oil is about wanting to create, be more awake and to be more alive. I have been lucky enough to both work and play with truly ambitious and talented people that push me more everyday, to those people I say a very special thank you.
    And I thank you for watching and to those who share this film. It was a very ambitious shooting schedule, we shot 16+ set ups in 9 locations in 3 days, not including the pick up/spontaneous shoot days. A behind the scenes blog is being posted on my website, with extra photos and extra footage!
    The last of the embers cool in the waking dawn
    as the silence echoes through the empty roads
    and the beat of heavy hearts stir the morning air
    The wasteland smiles, a grin tired and stretched too thin
    Built on rotting soil the city starts to crack, the foundations perish and crumble
    Trapped and left wanting, the weary stay hidden behind heavy doors and rusted locks
    The undeserving cling to chances untaken
    There is no escape
    The darkness starts to build
    I welcome the storm with my fists clenched, the aching seething from my bones
    I cannot show you. I cannot take you with me
    The course is already written
    Moving in harmony, tracers strangle out the light
    The consumption of every movement greedy and unsatisfied
    From the wreckage the oil runs
    Turning the blood of the fallen thick and black
    Quiet is the pulse of the driven
    Freedom is not levity, but the untold fight of the knowing
    A force understood only by those who possess it
    Dare to look up
    Dare to breathe
    To trust the hopeful and stack your spine
    No need to call to the willing, they are already at your side
    No need to call them brothers, they already share your fire
    The crushing allure of pure acceleration
    Chase it down
    Chase it down"

    I have been watching this video regularly for three years. It gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. I cannot find quality content as much as this video. I have even been thinking of getting a "Blood & Oil" tattoo for a very long time. Thank you for providing such content. "A force understood only by those who possess it"

    An absolute beauty of a film , I identify myself with , I only wish I started riding at an earlier time in my life , and stuck with it . I have been building , riding , and loving this life for 25 solid years now . In my mid 50's , I know this will be my life style , till I die . Ride to live , live to ride . I like his words , they already share your fire , says it all . Chase it down .

The kind of stuff that encapsulates my values and speak to them of my ideals that I can never find the words to express. I hope you don't mind if I add this piece of art to that package of stuff.
