The sticks have been bagged for the last time.

This activity was only special to me because of the people who I got to do it with. And I have been unbelievably lucky to have been put with the best humans possible. It is a fitting end to an incredible road, and I can say that I ended in the most fulfilling way possible.

My deepest gratitude to the Buccaneers, the Percussion staff, the Battery members, and the SR9.

Special shoutout to @mattmcneal20, for seeing my journey through start to finish. What a pleasure it was to do it with you🤝

Progress was never the end result, it was the experiences we created for each other to shape ourselves.

Millions of resets, thousands of calf raises, hundreds of morning miles, tens of performances, one corps to call home. Wouldn't change any of it for the world.

Thank you for giving me a place to call home and opportunity to push the culture of Bucs Bass for the future. It has been nothing but an honor to be a small gear in this dominant great machine. I love you all so much and thank you for giving me an unforgettable last ride.

We're All Good Men 💙⚓️

Ate and left no Crum(s)

It was amazing being at a historic show in a historic stadium.

Until next time, Allentown!

We used the Kaleidoscope Performing Arts Center at Ursinus College for our shoot. Most of it was done in the Blackbox Theater, but we did venture out for some shots.

The Kaleidoscope has a nice grand staircase that we used to get some levels. Here you can see Artistic Coordinator start the posing process for the staircase shot.

We utilized four different LED panels, three of which were RGB controllable. Obviously, blue had to be the choice for the drum majors.

I like this shot a TON, but it didn’t make the cut because it was too difficult to mask the models out because of the shallow depth of field. Still sick though.

Ray did like 5 jump spin things (idk i’m not up to date on my dance lingo) and nailed it every time.

One of the 4 lights was ALWAYS behind the models so we could isolate them from the already dark background and create a nice outline which you can see here on Eli’s hair.

Nick made a great call and added some swagger to the shoot by posing Lillian and Eli like they just dropped the hottest rap album of the 1990’s. We didn’t use this particular shot because it was too tall, but we did use Carter and Amanda doing the same pose.
