These are some short 30 second teasers I did for the Relient K’s new album/documentary. I just found out this past week they were actually posted!
I had such an incredible time spending over a month with those guys. These outtakes are all REAL. None of them were staged, and I didn’t tell them to say anything they say or mess up. This all happened during interviews. There will be several minutes of more outtake footage on the documentary. Still waiting for that baby to release. No idea at this point when it will. Enjoy!

One of the bestfunnesttalented groups I have ever had the honor to work with. Miss you guys.

Last night at 2am central time, Head Bangers Ball was hosted by Dave Peters from Throwdown. During the segment they released 2 of 12 videos I had completed from Throwdown’s latest album “Deathless.” First of all, if you haven’t picked up the album, please do so. It is an incredible album I still find myself jamming to regardless of hearing the entire album hundreds of times, during the film process! The videos were the first thing I have ever directed that hit national television. Funny story…I didn’t even get to watch them. Cable was not working at the house, it was an epic failure to say the least. However, even knowing the videos were playing and being viewed my heart was racing.
With these films I wanted to say thank you to all of you who helped. It isn’t enough just saying thank you. We filmed the entire project in ONE week. Some of you flew across the states and some of you drove for hours to be a part. Some of you sacrificed a lot just to lend a hand and make my job that much easier. I still shake my head in disbelief knowing how much we accomplished with our budget and time. I learned so much from this project, not only about filming “whats the quickest way to get a dolly shot without a dolly”…but how much I truly love what I am blessed in doing daily. How much I am surrounded with others who absolutely love what they do. How to work under pressure. How to stay positive and be productive when Mr. Worst Case Scenario comes knocking down your door. We had a couple of those moments, but we still came out on top and had, what I consider, one of the best weeks of my life.
Due to time constraints, the episodes played on TV weren’t even color corrected. Some other things were nixed as well due to it not meeting television standards. I will let you all know when the finished versions are viewable!
Thanks to everyone who stayed up late to watch and for all your texts and messages of encouragement. It was VERY inspiring.
The final videos will be out eventually but I just wanted to thank every again for all your help.
Throwdown, E1, and Ryan Downey, thank you for giving me the opportunity and taking on such a different project. I will never forget it.
My dad told me this quote recently in light of this project….It couldn’t be any more true.

Benjamin Gaskell:
Simply awesome. More to come, I'm sure? (01.20.2010 08:22am)
Lauren Ragsdale:
Cale,
I am continually amazed at your work and the places God is taking you! You've come a long way from hating my mom's class and switching to video productions! Congratulations on all your successes! Try not to forget the little people at Armstrong!! We still use your photos on a regular basis! (01.20.2010 11:50am)
cale:Benjamin - Yes more soon! Thanks! (01.21.2010 09:16pm)
cale:Lauren - Thank you so much! It sure has been a wild ride. Shooting for Armstrong was still very awesome! (01.21.2010 09:17pm)
Jenna Julianne:
Oh my gosh oh my gosh!! Dont want to sound like a chick freakingout... but i am! SOOOOOOO awesome!!!! This music video is epic!

Stoked to see the other sick movies!!! ahhh please post them soon, and keep up the famous work :) "Mtfbwu!" ?? know what that means!? (01.25.2010 01:18pm)

cale:Jenna - I have absolutely no idea what that means! No blood, no guns, no anything. Had to meet MTV standards and believe it or not, they are very strict. (01.25.2010 03:11pm)
Jenna Julianne:

Over Christmas break, I went out and did a quick small shoot of my great friend and very talented musician Brett Baggett. He needed a few promo pics for his new project, so I was very happy to take them. Brett is an intelligent young talent from Oklahoma who I have had the honor of knowing since 04. Brett and his wife are two of my favorite people in the world.
We were out about 11am, which isn’t the best time to shoot, but it was very overcast so that was perfect. It was about 20 degrees with a windchill of 10. My fingers were the first thing to go. Its the worst setting up gear and touching steel when your hands are frozen! This was a simple set up. I only used an octabox and 10 degree honeycomb. Used my new 16-35mm 2.8L. I’m in love with the lens.
Interesting story about the shoot. In the middle of our freezing cold shoot, we heard about 15 gun shots. These shots were very loud hinting the shooting was not far from us. Within minutes squad car after squad car made a perimeter around the block. It had take place on the next street over! Supposedly there was a gunman in his house just firing outside. Thankfully no one was injured. Always interesting times in Muskogee, Ok USA.
McClain:
I love you brother... and of course, WE love you brother. (01.10.2010 04:46pm)
Brett:
Thanks for the amazing promos and very kind words.
Love you. You are my brother.
Thanks for using your talents that Our Father has blessed you with. (01.10.2010 08:48pm)
brad trone:
I dig it man. Can't wait to see what all you do this year. Maybe I'll be able to catch up with you sometime. (01.15.2010 04:02pm)
Jenna Julianne:
Fantastic bro! Beautifully recorded. Lighting exactly directs my attention to the face of the subject and I don't even realize what else is in the outer frame. Ching Ching Ching you are going to make bling bling bling $ :) (01.25.2010 01:06pm)
As the holidays pass and we launch a new year, I am reminded over and over how thankful I am to be doing what I love every day. Traveling, opportunities, new friends, and new family made 2009 my best year yet. I’ve realized my dreams become more and more realistic every passing moment. I can only pray 2010 will be as rewarding and God will continue to open doors I thought were always locked. Thank you to everyone for your support, loyalty, and kind words. You lifted me up, you got me from point A to B, you let me crash on your couch, you drove me to the airport, you answered my questions, you put up with my sarcasm, you helped me on a project, but most of all, YOU INSPIRED ME! It will not be forgotten.
I apologize for not posting much lately. I will fill you all in on everything very soon. Great things in 2010!
I just simply wanted to say thank you and I will never take it for granted.
Mandy:
aw. You are so very welcome :P (01.06.2010 07:49pm)
Roberto:
Awww! Now thats what I am talking about! With out all us little people, no one accomplishes much. A successful career takes team work and a great support cast. I can not remember who said this but I quote, " NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO THE MAN WHO DOES NOT HAVE TO DO ALL THE WORK". (01.07.2010 07:39am)
cale:Roberto - That is an amazing quote. I really need to hold on to that one. (01.10.2010 04:18pm)
Ryan:
Man... the fam looks great. Hi to all. Did you get my e mail bro? (01.18.2010 05:30pm)
