I was so excited to be part of Our Footloose Remake. Working on this with the brothers at Ghostlight was one of the hardest things I’ve ever shot. All over one night—every practical effect, every new set up—it nearly killed us. You can see the sun just starting to rise on the final shot.
But we pulled it off. I’m very proud of this. For reference, this is Scene 53 from from Footloose—the climactic scene where Ren and Willard finally confront their bully tormentors.
With Nick Clark, Evan Gaustad, Matt Wyatt, Will Hutson, Dan Kent, Brendan Joyce, Eric Toms, Hesley Harps, and Jessica Thompson. Cinematography by James Codeglia. Camera assistance by Brad Conlin. Editing by Dave Codeglia. VFX by Ghostlight.
Special thanks to Dave Seger for including us in the Footloose fun. And of course to Rob for the blessings.
Watch the original Footloose scene here for context.
Happy Tuesday Everyone - now please do us a favor and watch me get shot in the head.
Chris, the Ghostlight brothers, and Brad Conlin are so stinking talented it hurts.
Don’t forget to watch the original for context.

thanks to Chris, Mike, Mikey, Jen, Rob, Kristina, Heather, Jim for coming; special thanks to Danny and Cullen and especially Will for setting it up and letting me screen at their place. i think it went really well and food seemed good and beer seemed cold and i think that people seemed to maybe kind of be ok with the movie. so you guys should follow them all, just like your mother told you. they are most certainly NOT assholes.
Had a great time screening Aaron’s film Apart. What a great work and a neat honor to share with friends.
Everyone please ‘Like’ the film on Facebook (trailer here) and support Aaron in this process!
They’re all swell, but Jason Whetzell’s segment is spectacular. Watch.
I’m going to miss this tremendously.
*wait, do 101 shows stay on after 10 episodes?
Chuck Brown & The Soul Searchers - “Ashley’s Roachclip” (1974)
Just another B-plus funk track, right?
Jump to 03:30.
Must be really weird for poor Kenneth Scroggins know a few seconds of something he did in 1974 ended up becoming one of the definitive icons for an era (let alone the basis for dozens of other songs).
Alongside “Think”, “Funky Drummer” and “Cut the Cake”, it’s gotta be one of the most recognizable samples in hip-hop.
