Up There Documentary

UP THERE from Jon on Vimeo.



My buddy Charlie Pratt is featured in this short documentary called "Up There". It documents the dying business of hand painted building ads. Vinyl ads have made their business nearly obsolete with the exception of major markets like New York and LA.

It is only 12 minutes, but the cinematography and score are amazing.

Gone are the days of specialization and craftsmanship.

Fucking robots, man.

Those motherfuckers are gonna take over.
