Jamie + Julian: On Love

For Jamie's 6th birthday, we interviewed Jamie about his love for LEGO. Then we took quotes from the interview and structured them into a beat poem (of sorts). Finally, Jamie performed the beat poem in a studio, which we then interspersed with time-lapse B-roll of him building a variety of Lego sets. Needless to say, it was one of his favorite videos to make.

When Jamie was an only child, Joe and I went all-out to create a special birthday video for him each year. Because of how time-consuming these videos were, we often quipped we couldn't possibly have a second child. 

Oh well.

Welcome to the world, Julian! Here is your first video.
