Meet the crew

James aka JAM: Helicopter camera operator/ location audio - working in Arizona
James was denied the 5 weeks vacation by his current employer and will be 'let go' as of March. He's committed career suicide to discover if the myths about Japanese women and foreigners are really true. This is Jam's first time in Japan.

Dave: Editor/ motion graphics/ DVD author - working in Vancouver, BC
Ever since Dave saw Insomniac with Dave Attell's episode from Tokyo, "Sloshed in Translation", he's wanted to visit Japan. He's since been filling his head with other media stereotypes about traveling in Japan. All of which happen to be true, according to Scott's memory. This is Dave's first time in Japan.

Scott:
Video producer/ camera operator - working in San Francisco, CA
Having spent a total 16 days in Japan during a previous job, this makes Scott the group's local expert. Unfortunately, he was shooting a band's tour documentary and spent most of his time like this and this. While he may be able to point out the most discreet alley to vomit in from Sapporo to Fukuoka, he has no recollection of useful skills like navigating the country's rail system.

Below is a short promo for the tour DVD Scott produced last summer in Japan... Why I am referring to myself in the 3rd person?
