140Portrait Project (update) – Gary Vaynerchuk

It has been a couple of weeks since I came back from Calgary after shooting Gary V. The progress continues on the shoot edit as well as the gallery interface. Very stoked that @_ds is helping out with that. We wanted to make sure we had an appropriate way to house 140 images and make viewing enjoyable and above all … it had to be “simple”.

What is 140portraits? Simply – its a behind the scenes look of a person told in a 140 images. This project was inspired by Gary, and could not be more thrilled he agreed to take the journey. This is something I have been working on for about 9 months. There was no way this project was going to launch without him. I would have shelved it until the moons aligned. More information about the scope of this project will be on the site when it launches.

Until then here is a shot driving back from the airport after his talk, interviews and book signing…. right back to doing what he does! Work ethic is what I observed that day. I also have to say I came back with a larger flame to take care of some of my own business. Mad mad respect. If for some reason your not familiar with Gary visit his site: http://garyvaynerchuk.com/ .. and Gary, another Big Thanks man!
