Nextfest 2010. What a show!

Catch the Keys had the distinct pleasure of curating five nights of festing fun this past June. If you were there, you know just how much fun we had.

At a back yard party just a week before Nextfest opened, we had the distinct pleasure of meeting the undeniably talented, powerfully passionate and downright freaking brilliant Pixelknife, Midnight Portraits and AO FOTO. We got to talking, as we usually do over a few beers, and before we knew it, we’d struck up what would prove to be the enlightening beginning of a beautiful relationship.

For each and every Catch the Keys Nextfest event, Pixelknife, Midnight Portraits & AO FOTO came ‘a’ packing: packing an impressive assortment of high def gear, that is.

Always early to each event, they painstakingly considered each and every angle before the doors opened to bring on the flood of artists and guests each night.

Over the course of the 10 days of the festival, the videography team not only captured the electric energy of each event, but also the behind the scenes details. Thorough in every sense of the word, these guys know what they’re doing. And they’re JUST on their way up, folks. Catch ‘em while you can.

We can’t thank these guys enough – take a look for yourself to see what we mean!
