LA based Parris Patton’s experience as a freelance director and editor spans more than two artistic decades. His artistry has been lent to the music industry with work for The Who and Prince (or was he the artist previously known as at the time?) to name just a few.
Parris recently lent his talents and Magic Bullet Looks to a 3 minute promo for The Vans Warped Tour:
We caught up with Parris who said: “What I really love about Looks is the preview interface and also the overall flexibility of each effect. The Swing Tilt Film effect is awesome and gives some of the flatter footage nice dimension. All the film effects are really great, we shot a lot of super 8 and 16mm sort of music video style with edge bleeds and what not and Looks gives me some great options to stylize the digital media to match that feeling.”
The Warped Tour is a touring music and extreme sports festival held in venues such as parking lots or fields. Vans, has sponsored the tour every year since 1995, and it is often referred to as the Vans Warped Tour.

Excellent work! Invokes the spirit of Cameron Crowe’s “Almost Famous,” the heart and soul of Rock & Roll. Beautifully shot and edited, and wonderful, virtually seemless incorporation of 8mm & 16mm footage.
With tools like Magic Bullet Looks, the magic of the story comes to life.
