It's a Man's World (According to photographer, Marcqui Akins)

Marcqui just completed a fantastic story on one of America's biggest icons, Muhammed Ali. Model Wendell Lissimore was cast to do all the heavy lifting while Marcqui worked on training his eye to capture pictures that speak to Ali's era of greatness with a fresh, modern viewpoint. Quite an undertaking, as you can see, particularly during the fight scenes. We know they look realistic, but please don't worry, no models or crew were harmed in the making of this shoot.

You can see the the mulitmedia piece Marcqui put together here to get the full feel of the story: MULTIMEDIA: It's a Man's World.






FUN FACT: Wendell has actually trained as a boxer in the past.

Did we mention that Fox Comic Con took place in beautiful SAN DIEGO?

Because if we didn't then we probably didn't share the following video. The guys had a bit of time in-between shooting to enjoy the surrounding sunshine and beaches. Brought to you through the combined efforts of Seed Reps, Marc Kelly from Shootdigital, and good old gravity we present: Daniel Weiner Versus the Pacific Ocean


Fear not, folks--Daniel is an excellent surfer and was not harmed in the making of this video. We just wanted to send you all off into Labor Day weekend with a laugh and remind you to have a great time. This is the last weekend most beaches are open!
Seed Reps will be back with a vengeance on Tuesday.

Seed on the Cutting Edge.

Not sure if you had a chance to look at today's NY times article entitled Where Fashionists Go For A Quick Fix but it's all about online fashion magazines (webzines) as the next frontier in fashion photos, news and trends. Luckily, our photographer Marcqui had his feet firmly placed on this wave from the beginning. Take a look at his story in the very first addition of unvogue.com to see what all the fuss is about.

We've left a few tidbits below to wet your appetite. The rest starts on page twenty, issue one: unvogue.com

COMIC-CON 08 with FOX!!!

Last week Peter Rosa, Marc Kelly, and Daniel Weiner flew out to San Diego for COMIC-CON! With our Green screen in place the shooting began at the FOX booth. What an experience that was! We met quite a few interesting characters and learned a little more about what it means to have "The Force with you!"


Can you find our photographer Peter Rosa?!?

Seed Reps Welcomes the Newest Little Seedling

The contest to guess Randi's 2nd baby's b-day has been fierce but the results are finally in. Randi and her husband Martin are now the proud parents of a 2nd son as of Wed, Aug 6th. Weighing in at 6lbs 11 oz, this little guy is a major contender for cuteness.

Please meet the newest little seedling, Noah Martinov Mitev:




Noah meets his big (relatively speaking, of course) brother, Mishi



Randi is out for a bit on maternity leave but please feel free to send her a congrats!

Seed Out and About

Oh my, how embarrassing! We have had these pics from when Tracey and Daniel were out at Sandbox Studios for months and have not posted them! To recap, we had a great time eating their giant cheese plate (Daniel, in particular is a huge fan of any kind of super stinky cheese which were among the offerings) and dancing off all that dairy on the dance floor. We also got to see a lot of old friends and a couple new faces too. Can't wait for the next chance to shake it on the dance floor. In the meantime, if you have a particularly stinky and tasty cheese and would like to share, please e-mail your suggestions to info@seedreps.com

Daniel and Tracey had a lot of fun with the giant mirror
