He's an amateurish hack who used to be an inline skate pro.

Here was my post on an earlier thread today:

Here are some samples. Trite. And while "Historical Fiction" may deliberately include out-of-era elements, this is just bad.

About 20 years too late to be finding Mary-Manson-Warner "edgy" or relevant.

And before anyone says “but those look professional”, give him some film and the outcome would require more knowledge.

Point and shoot and you get a photo, in focus even if that’s a requirement.

To be “good” requires much more than “technical” competency.

Hundreds of films (videos really) are released to theaters every year. Even moviemakers who’ve made great films in the past (working with great screenwriters and great actors, etc.) don’t always end up with a SUCCESSFUL (good) film (not talking box office, talking the completed work). Clearly they have the skills to MAKE a good film, yet every film they make isn’t necessarily good or rewarding. So it is also with photos.

Ditto for musicians and albums.
