Ghetto Van Gogh

This pod captivated me from start to finish. The videography and editing moved the story at breakneck pace. Great take on the black historical perspective, but I'd like to know more about Tony. How does he live outside of work? What part of his past created this drive to share his views?



And thanks for the constructive criticism on my pods on Tahiti. It is my first attempt at an independent travel doc, and your comments offered an honest perspective I can learn from...I'll get a GL out of you two yet:)

This was spastic, loud, in your face and sometimes obnoxious....and I like it. Could stand to be shorter, but awesom job. GL.

This pod captivated me from start to finish. The videography and editing moved the story at breakneck pace. Great take on the African American historical perspective, but I'd like to know more about Tony. How does he live outside of work? What part of his past created this drive to share his views, especially in this manner? Is he a registered voter?...and whatever happened to the drag t shirts?

nice, rawbird. good story, nice cuts. can definitely see this pod striking a chord with current's core demographic. too bad they aren't running slightly longer, more in depth pods like this one. if i had to give you something to change, i would loose the intro with van gogh, start the lead in with (narrator/ you?????(young white guy who sets up the story) and cut out some of your protagonist's maniacal raving towards the end of the pod...makes him look a little more crazy than it has to. we all know great artists are supposed to be nuts...no need to draw any more attention to it.
thanks for the feedback btw...stay in touch

excellent excellent excellent job! GL! Keep it comin'.


If you get a chance check out my Current Promo <a href=" http://www.current.tv/watch/27174409?list=newVidsByProd... Thanks!

Nice to see Venice artists on Current TV!

Great job!

pretty good GL

check out my pod on a photo montage artist

this is cool man!!! thanks for the gl for my pod u get a gl from me as well

Thats awesome!~! I love it...

All over the place with the edits. Very shaky moments. I got the point after the first minute - 9 minutes is a bit much. The art is great though

Art and Politics, a good mix for an interesting and cool pod

love it, thank you..

Yo, RawBird Man! The Tony B Ghetto Doc. is Totally Fresh.

'Just put it in your mouth, your motherfu**ing mouth'

Keep doing your thing man - keep sharing the love.

I got to check you out in the spot to be, and get me a painting.

Peace and Blessings, Congratulations on you being a father.

This is awesome. He is a great character to profile... engaging, intelligent, fun to watch. This is a great piece. His stencils are pretty rad too! GL. Love all Rawbird's stuff!

Please check out "SF Die In" when you get a chance: <a href=" http://www.current.com/watch/28212029">link<...

nice find....interesting fellow. gl

Yet another story about a graffitist or stencil-artist or the like. Nothing new here. Can't see it on TV.

This is a real personality that is combining politics, historical information, Black pride, art and music. Please tell me where you've seen this B4??? This brother is doin' his thing & droppin' science! Keep it up my man... do ya thang, bruh!!!

BRILLIANT!! I love the message... a little work on the lighting, but otherwise good coverage of the art AND the artist...

Are you kidding me. This guy is more starving then a kid straight out of SVA. No GL for me, I just don't like this guy. Your production quality is okay though, but I don't think this is for Current.

Ghetto Van Gogh has definitely his own and original way to reach out to the public. Nice pod. I like your editing style. GL from me, and congrats on all your accomplishments at Current TV so far.

If you have a moment, please check out my latest pod <A HREF=" http://www.currenttv.com/watch/57173461">"BIG BUGS"</A> and let me know what you think. Thanks!

yeh definately loud but nice style. Good stuff, GL

I love these artists... I've seen several artists do this type of work... Venice Beach, right? So much personality there, for sure! When is your next video coming out, Rawbird? Speak to me. A Greenlight and some Points for you! ... 8') ... Before I'm through, PLEASE take a second to return the courtesy. Leave your personal feedback and TV approval on my buddy Don's pod, <a href=" http://www.current.tv/watch/60193451">Canceptua... Boom</a>. It's something cool and new in the streets for the youth. A Comment & a Light would be sweet!... Don't rest. Bring your style, Rawbird!

That guy is the S*#t!

Rawbird, I really dig your stuff man. This guy is really unique and you covered him very well. Good footage, dynamic angles, great audio, put it on TV! =GL

When you grab some time, stop on by and take a look at my first pod on Current (<a href=" http://current.tv/watch/53816101.htm">Susan Cagle</a>). Let me know what you think.

This guy is quite a character. How come I had never even heard of him before? This is a perfect example of the kind of stuff that should be on Current TV.

yes yes yes! i remember this guy last time i was at venice beach, unbelievable and totally righteous.
i give you a 100% yes, i agree that this is they type of person we need to hear more about.
thanks

Good stuff i liked it !

Chola loves you and wants to work on something together.

Nice. This guy cracked me up and inspired me at the same time. A little longer than the usual pod, but I was with it the whole way. Well done. Can't believe this isn't higher in the ranks? I will look for this guy next time I'm in Cali. GL

Eye opening! there aren't enough people like him. Thank you for giving his story light. Well made!

I love this guy. =)
