Boom Pictures in Lower Soho

Anybody need a lift? Even with a heavy chain strapped across the frame of this poor Huffy, the thing was assaulted by vandals on the streets of New York like the carcass of a viscerated animal left in the wild. Vultures sweep in and pick at the bike bones until there's no more. Poor thing.

My 2 days on assignment in NYC ended with a visit to Boom Pictures on the border of Chinatown, where this poor bike was left for dead. All that was forgotten meeting up with friend and former colleague Matt G., an award-winning Executive Producer/Director of big name documentaries, broadcast series and commercial specials. His genius is responsible for prime time docudrama "Inked", "Extreme History" with Roger Daltry, the A&E 1-hour special "Forbes Celebrity 100", a 2006 Ashley Judd documentary called "Tracking the Monster" and the list goes on and on. Matt's mastery for projects with depth and visual impact have toured the international film festival circuit and won him awards for Best Audience, Best Documentary and respect from the biggest names in the industry.

If PilotGirl can, one day, achieve only half the success and talent as the accomplished Boom Pictures, she'll be a very happy fly-boy, I mean fly-girl.
