Melanie Iglesias Flipbook is being featured everywhere!! 50,000 Hits

We are less than 2 days in and we are getting some amazing buzz. 50,000 hits in like 40 hours! I joked that we would get 50,000 total when we made it. It also has over 2000 likes and 700 comments.

First, here is the video again for anyone who is coming straight to this link. It is basically addictive with Melanie smiling her way through funky outfits. Putting them on and taking them off. We had a blast making this. It is all just 1 take of us playing with ideas we thought up at the spur of the moment.



We got a very nice endorsement from the Philip DeFranco show, entitled, "MELANIE IGLESIAS RAISES DEBT CEILING BY SELLING CHINESE CHILDREN ". The best line from it is when Philip says, "The Youtube has gotten a little sexier today."



I can't post all the sites or anything. It is lighting up the board on Tumblr with fans pausing the video and posting all the hot stills. Maybe a couple thousand notes already from all the sites. Here are a few of the dozens of sites spreading the word.

Here is link to Melanie’s Facebook Fan Page and Twitter. Here is a link to my original post where I give some more info about the video.

Thanks!

The Melanie Iglesias Flipbook Video - Super Hot!!

I am really excited to release the new video I just shot with the super hot Melanie Iglesias. You have seen Melanie Iglesias in 2011 Maxim’s Top 100 and World Poker Tour as a Royal Flush Girl. Now her is a little more of her!! Especially that great personality. She is such a sweetheart to work with.

We did the video on a whim and just hope everyone enjoys it. We shot around 2000 frames to make the stop motion video, and I would like to argue it is one of the sexiest stop motion videos of all time. It is Melanie dressing and then stripping off loads of outfits. No images have been retouched at all, and we shot it all in one take. And yes, the individual frames are super hot as well!!!





Music by Grand Staff, Video edited by @Ebis, Makeup by Oz Rodriguez. Here is link to Melanie's Facebook Fan Page and Twitter.

Some of the hot stills!!


For those photo nerds out there who are as much interested in what I did as Melanie. I shot on a Canon 5D MarkII on continuous shooting with the awesome Broncolor Scoro in fast mode. I used my trusty 85mm 1.2 lens and my souped up beauty dish. All the creative ideas and styling were just from me, Melanie and my assistant, Mary Austin.

Here are some photographs I took of Melanie posted last week. We took these at the same time as the video shoot. I am still planning to release more in the near future. So check back sometimes.

Kerstin Lechner @LA Models

I am in the studio right now with Kerstin Lechner @LA Models. We are in the middle of shooting, but I thought I would post a screen shot from Adobe Bridge while Oz is messing with the hair. You can see Kerstin on the upcoming season of Project Runway starting July 28th. You may also remember her as one of the hot trophy presenters from last years Oscars or from my sexy blog post back in Sept 2009.
