Ooh La La Artist Video Series #11
For the eleventh installment of our Artist Video Series, director Maia Stern pulls from the archives of her childhood to give us this nostalgiac vignette, set to Ace Reporter’s “Untouched and Arrived”.
Here’s what Maia had to say about the video:
I grew up with two older brothers and a dad who documented almost everything we did. This is some of my favorite footage my dad filmed one summer in Malibu, California. My eldest brother was surfing with a friend while I was digging in the sand and finding seaweed with a friend. I never understood why this footage came out with such a green tone, so I wanted to experiment with color filters for this video, to see what it would look like in other shades. I wanted to see the moon as blue and me in black an white rather than green. You can’t really change your memories if you have them documented in film, but you can change their colors.

Ace Reporter Hits The Road
Attention Philly, New York, DC and Chicago!
What better way to ride out the dog days of summer than to throw back a cold one and dance to some Ace Reporter? Well, now’s your chance! Ace Reporter will be appearing live and in the flesh in your city this August!
Here’s what frontman Chris Snyder had to say about the upcoming shows in their monthly newsletter:
Hey there,
It’s that time again — everyone’s either on vacation or really wishing they were. (I’m kind of perennially in that second category, but whatever. Plenty of time to vacation when I’m too old to play rock shows.)
On that note, it’s time to play some shows! As I may have mentioned in a previous missive, Ace Reporter has shifted its residence to the shores of Lake Michigan, and this is going to be the first few shows featuring a brand-new Chicago-based lineup. So come out and help us get our sea legs underneath us…
