Great Behind the Scenes Video of Flipbook 3

For those of you thought you saw a lot of behind the scenes footage in the Flip Book 3 teaser, the new behind the scenes video offers so much more;  a lot more Melanie Iglesias, a lot more Michael Creagh, and a lot more photography.  I try not to read to many of the comments on YouTube, but when I do I see people so incorrectly describing what we do.  This video really shows us working and the techniques...and it is sexy and fun.  You get to also see some of process Melanie and I use to create mood, feel, and sexiness.


Flip Book 3 is at 500,000 views in 2 days with loads of YouTube honors and we are fast approaching 4 million views for the series.  So exciting.

Here is the link to ALL Melanie posts from my blog; including both Flip Book 1,2 and 3, some behind the scenes shots, twitter posts, the teaser video…everything.

FHM Magazine - Melanie Iglesias Demands Your Attention

Very Cool for FHM Magazine to do a story on the Melanie Iglesias Flip Books 1 and 2 today.  They featured the first video when it came out, but this was a little more special as they attached a fun story about both.  The videos are doing amazing.  Part 1 is over 1.1 Million views today and Part 2 is at 740,000 views in 4 days.  Amazing.  Below are links to both, plus the link to ALL Melanie links.

1 Million Hits - Melanie Iglesias Flip Book

It's official.  1 Million hits for Flip Book 1.  I still remember when Melanie and I joked that maybe we would get 50,000 hits.  Here is the screen shot that I only thought would ever come in my life if someone got some video of me falling into a fountain or something with all my cameras.

I want to thank everyone who helped us in this phenomenal .....I don't know the word for it....achievement?...This force that just took off.  I, first and foremost, want thank Melanie, as do the million people who saw the video.  She is amazing; so sweet, down to earth.  It is her.

I want to thank Philip DeFranco for introducing his audience to us with “MELANIE IGLESIAS RAISES DEBT CEILING BY SELLING CHINESE CHILDREN .“  It was the single biggest help.  His show is constantly amazing.  I am a big fan.

I want to thank Maxim, Sports Illustrated and FHM for all featuring the video on their front page.  Great top of the line publications that love Melanie and the work we did.




Also, thank you to the dozens of other very cool sites that also featured us.  Here are some below.



If you haven't yet, please check out The Melanie Iglesias Flip Book Part 2 video.  Out for just 48 hours now, it has a whopping 400,000 hits, 8800 Likes and has 11 YouTube honors; including the #1 Viewed, #1 Rated and #1 Favorited Video of the Day for People & Blogs, the #4 Most Discussed in P&B, and the #6 Favorited and #11 Viewed Video today of every YouTube Video in the world.

Philip DeFranco's newest video, MELANIE IGLESIAS CREATES STICKINESS FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT?! also features Melanie's and my stop motion video.  It is the #2 Rated, #3 Discussed, #5 Most Viewed, #7 Favorited Video on all of YouTube today.  Amazing.

Melanie Iglesias Flip Book 2 is Finally Here!!!

It is the moment we have all been waiting for since the first 3:42 seconds ended, The Melanie Iglesias Flip Book Part 2!!!!! It was so much fun to shoot the sequel.  I hope everyone enjoys watching it as much as we enjoyed making it.  Of course, our mystery guest is revealed in the first image on the video preview below.  It is the gorgeous Lisa Ramos!!

Check back here soon as I will post the awesome behind the scenes photos in the next week or so.  We didn't take any during the original video, so we made up for it with lots of fun and sexy shots.  Here is a tiny taste, but Melanie and I still have to select the final ones to post.

Check out Melanie's Youtube channel for all the excitement:

http://www.youtube.com/MELANIEIGL

Special thanks to everyone who helped out with making the video.  Stylist Keith S. Washington brought us some of those cool outfits.  Oz Rodriguez and AJ Will did the girls' makeup.  And my assistant was Spencer Kohn.

HERE is the LINK to ALL Melanie links from this blog in one handy compilation with large thumbnails to guide you.

A special thank you to the beautiful Lisa Ramos for being our wonderful mystery guest star.  I know she is like a sister to Melanie and has always been a great model friend to me.  Ina round about way, if not for her generosity, Flip Book part 1 may never have come to be.   Here is a link to a Lisa Ramos shoot I posted last year. Here is a sexy swimsuit shot I posted of Lisa on Tumblr.

First shot from Behind the scenes of Melanie Iglesias Part 2!

Here is the first photo of Melanie Iglesias behind the scenes on the Flip Book Part 2 (#FlipBookPart2). She is absolutely adorable. Zero retouching. You can see I took a camera phone shot of the back of my camera. The photo is her in the makeup mirror with some of my studio in the background....as well as my arm.

She also tweeted a shot from this scene taken like 2 seconds after this. So make sure you check out her twitter: http://twitter.com/MelanieIglesias and for lots of hot photos try her Facebook Fan Page.

For you crazy photo nerds like myself. I shot this on my Canon 1Ds MarkIII with a 24-70mm lens. You can see the exposure listed on the back of the camera 1/160 at F3.2. I think I was zoomed in at 70mm and had ISO 1600.

Here is a link to the first Melanie Iglesias Flip Book video!

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.

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.
