Ran Into an Old Friend

At tonight’s Third Tuesday’s Online Video Meetup (which was sick) I saw this guy:

may 25 2009

That’s RT!, one of Canada’s premiere music video directors.  Nominated for 22 MMVAs and won for Best Director a bunch of times he also (pretty sure this is correct) directed the most expensive Canadian music video ever.  One time I was on a plane flipping around the TV in the headrest and there he was discussing music videos… that’s when I knew he’d made it.

We’ve known each other a long time, a decade anyway, and he’s always been quiet about his achievements.  He probably won’t like that I’ve listed a bunch in the paragraph above but too bad dude, it’s my blog.  Although I must say your new Bay Street address is impressive (smirking right now).
