McClintock Saloon & Chop House

McClintock Saloon & Chop House

McClintock’s Saloon and Chop House in Stockyard City may not have hitching posts, dancing girls, player pianos, or even swigging doors, but they have a saloon with some of the state’s finest woodworking and a dining experience that’s best described as French meets West. The French Cowboy, Michel “Stockyard Mitch” Buthion, and Lindsay Ocker talk about their new restaurant and bar in Oklahoma City’s stockyard district.

Out of all of the various origin stories I’ve heard about businesses, the one for McClintock ranks high as one of the funniest. The craftsmanship of the bar is incredible. Overall, it’s a neat place to visit in Stockyard City.

Norman Flea Market

Market Adventures on Oct. 14, 2017

Follow us on an October Saturday as we visited several antique, flea, and farmers markets in Norman and Oklahoma City. This montage video highlights only a small fraction of the many types of markets in the metro area. We visited Norman Farm Market, Farmers Public Market, The Antique Mall, Urban Agrarian, Pam’s Plants, The Basement, and Toy Base 10. Since this was filmed in October, there are shots of various interesting Halloween items and lots of pumpkins in farmers markets.

Guthrie Haunts

Adventures at Guthrie Haunts and Not For Sale

In this adventure video, I interrogate John Pagonis of Guthrie Haunts on the electric chair and I chat with two of the artists of Not For Sale on a comfortable couch.

While I’ve done videos on both of them recently, for my adventure video I went on a different route. For Guthrie Haunts, we talk about both of the haunts and on Not For Sale, I interviewed two other artists that I didn’t interview. I wouldn’t call this video a rehash.

Happy Adventures!

Not For Sale artwork

Not For Sale

Not For Sale presents accomplished artists from the graffiti community in a showcase in Oklahoma Contemporary’s gallery setting. This one-of-a-kind show included 10 artists who have been integral to the Oklahoma graffiti scene, each of whom painted their works directly on Oklahoma Contemporary’s gallery walls.

Featured artists include: SKER, JASPYR, CODAK, SADAT, HEK, SEAPO, GERM, ENTAKE, MANIK and RHAK.

I filmed these interviews with Chris and Angel when the artists were working on the art last weekend. Today, Oklahoma Contemporary had a media preview where I filmed the b-roll of the finished art. If you can, go see it for yourself. It opens tonight and will be around for a few months.
