"NOW IN HD"
THANK YOU FOR VISITING
www.wonton-productions.com
welcome to my humble abode on the internet. this site contains
videos and some pictures of stuff i do, places i go, and people who get
in the way of my cameras. i prefer video personally. if a
picture is worth
a thousand words, and a movie is a sequence of pictures, then a movie
must be lots and lots and lots of words. not bad for a penn state
graduate.
if
the best things in life are free, why do i have to pay for
beer? -wonton
live fast, die
old. -wonton
some people do not
deserve 15 minutes of fame. -wonton
i only have 13
minutes of fame left. -wonton

08 23 grand palladium riviera maya Photos my Dad took from
our trip to the Grand Palladium. He's crazy with that
camera. There's almost 400 pictures here. He likes to look
at these in the winter. Apparently he's not a skiier.
- 2009
08 22 grand palladium riviera maya It's been five long years
since i had a chance to spend some time on a perfect beach like this
one. Nice snorkling off the beach, where I spent some quality
time studying a four foot barracuda named "Barry da Cuda". Had a
little boat trip to
Akumal where we saw some sea turtles up close and personal. Lots
of beer, food, and great scenery.

carlisle/nicofest here's a few photos from carlisle
today. photos are cool, but to really tell a story, you need
video. i need some time and a beer or two to do a few
videos. hopefully, these photos will whet your appetite for the
videos that will be posted in a short while. to keep it real, i
would just like to say, nicofest is the bomb. thanks to carlisle
productions, www.rateddunderground.com,
and www.myspace.com/triameraband

reading auto expo can i just blog here for a minute.
after all it's my site. by the way, thanks for visiting
wonton-productions. every click on my site earns me absolutely
nothing. so you may ask, why should i do this. my therapist
says it funnels my quest for world domination into something
tangible. i will just leave it at that for now. anyhow...
great weather, great cars, and great drifting just an hour from the
wonton studio was enough to peak my interest for this photo
shoot. not to mention a chance to roll my s13 around a bit.
on a serious note, if you are really considering world domination, take
your car here... import intelligence
- 2008 10 04 richard stein bar
mitzvah my good friend and ski pal nate's son, richard,
just turned 13. which is a great excuse to throw a party of
monumental proportions. i suppose you could shorthand the
occasion to "stein 13". let's go a little further and shorten it
up s13. by coincidence, if you own a north american nissan 240sx
with a model year from 1991 to 1994 as i do... it is referred to as an
s13 chassis. sometimes, for no apparent reason, the numbers just
add up. i am not sure how bruce kulick of kiss factors into this
equation, but i saw him on saturday at the hotel just before going to
the bar mitzvah.

original
features
- detanotor july 3rd 1987
before wonton was a film director, producer, editor, and winner of
multiple emmys and oscars, he was an aspiring rock star. this
video has a running time of 45 minutes and tips the scales at just over
one gigabyte.
- high def video test
after a botched attempt at filming a slopestyle skiing event. i
had an urge to test out my editing skills with some high def video
captured using my new camera. i wanted to see how sony vegas
would handle it. the editing went okay, but the render is not
what i anticipated. i only could render to 720p
successfully. i tried 1080 multiple times and it crashed.
anyhow... enjoy the video and get into the groove, the high def groove.
- caught stealing old
school stop action circa 2001.
- in through the out door
more old school stop action video circa 2001. this is how it all
started. a few videos, a few beers, now i am practically an
institution. maybe i am just an asylum for creativity. then
again, maybe i belong in an institution or an asylum.
- jar jar old school stop
action circa 2001. it appears star wars and monsters inc toys
were readily available when bmw was three. now it's just little
silver disks you put into an xbox.
- king krunch monster
truck crush car.
- i
win an instructional video about a card game the creative
team
at won ton productions invented.
- wonton kwan footage of
wonton training in his unsuccessful bid to make the us olympic skating
team. "break a leg wonton" -Tonya Harding
- squirrels: cute furry
animals or... terrorist sleeper cells the latest won ton original
feature. it appears i
missed the sundance festival this year. this will clean
up at sundance next year, as long as the squirrels don't attack.
special thanks to my dad, aka papaw, for the squirrel footage.
most squirrels are not that large and menacing
unless they are pumped up on the juiced birdseed my parents put out
during the winter.
- christmas fireworks
you may have heard about christmas in july. how about july
4th on christmas? wonton pulls
all the stops for his 1st christmas fireworks display.
thanks to tracey, steve, and anthrax for their input.
- we are penn state
wonton
takes a day off to do a little tailgating in happy valley.
tailgating
is a good excuse to toss a few cold ones back at like 8am. i am
penn
state.
- win place show
an astute critic of mine gave me the following challenge the
other day... "dear wonton, is it possible to make a movie
involving a five year old underpaid child actor, thorobred horses,
gambling, and beer?"
- night before christmas
the classic christmas tale narrated by won ton. just a few
brief words on this one. bikinis and santa. santa and
bikinis. enjoy.
- bmw spitz bmw chillin'
in da pool.
- highway to hell
wonton reprising his role as international karoke star. the
picture is really bad, but the audio steals the show anyhow.
skiing
- ski roundtop 01-02-2010
video
video of my kid brady and my nephew landon skiing better than i ever
could possibly ski. filmed at ski roundtop USA.
- welcome to the atl
filmed at ski roundtop pa, this slope safety video entertains as well
as informs. starring emily, emily, ben, landon, won ton, andy,
brady, chad, and mike.
- Ski Roundtop Smith Rail
Jam rail jam filmed on january 4th 2009. featuring bmw
and won "angus young" ton. this one's only about 5 minutes long,
but took a while with all the editing.
- SRRC
2007/2008 ski roundtop race club video. this is a big
file.
if you have a dial up connection, call your cable or phone
provider
to upgrade.
- 2003 the title is
somewhat misleading, but the first half was filmed at straton vermont
in winter 2008. the second half features mike, chad, brady,
and landon tearing it up at ski roundtop.
- beaver creek 2007
get on a plane, go to the swankiest resort in colorado and throw it
down
wonton style. special thanks to nate for the posh lodging
accomodations
in the village.
- ski roundtop 2007 "and
sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky... a human being that was
given to fly" e. vedder, pearl jam, given to fly
- sunday river 2007 another
year, another ski movie. the staff at
wonton productions once again made a trek to the great white north
to ski. while everyone here was dealing with an ice storm on
valentines
day, we were skiing in 20 inches of powder, followed by 40 mph winds
the next day. maine can be a cold heartless place.
especially
at night, walking up a hill after you just fell down as depicted in act
V "can you feel the love". this year is a special year for the
staff.
we are headed west in a couple weeks to show those gold diggers
in
colorado some east coast style. wonton has been practicing
drinking
beer with his pinky out. i reckon thats what you do at swanky
resorts
like vail. they won't know what hit 'em when they see brady ski
and
marvel at my heavenly cooking skills. who knows, maybe i will get
an invite to sundance next year. gotta go, wolfgang puck just
called
about some antibiotic thing.
- mount snow seven
trip to mount snow when brady was seven years old. thus the
title... seven.
- windham 2006 overall
it was a bad year for snow. but, won ton productions CEO still
managed to hit the slopes 60 times this year. my last visit to
the slopes is captured in this touching video.
- ski
roundtop bumps and jumps 2005 there are a lot of different people
skiing in this video. the little lunatic wearing
the silver helmet skiing without poles is brady. i even
have a cameo of brother in law keith cooking. this video
marks the premiere of wonton sports(TM)(R), an exciting addition
to the wonton productions family. wonton sports(TM)(R) captures
the essence and stylish individuality of the burgeoning action sports
market.
- sugarloaf/usa 2005
wonton and brady doing what they do best. a
few of you may remember the old memorex slogan. "is
it live, or is it memorex?" the staff at wonton productions has
ingeniously warped this famous slogan into "is it stupid,
or is it wonton?"
- R Games 2004 recorded at
wonton's home mountain, ski roundtop. most excellent footage of
bmw throwing it down like a pro. i think this was the best
terrain park roundtop ever had at any time. period.
- Susquehanna 2004 it
appears my dad is a late bloomer, but a natural born skiier by my
observation. the apple doesn't fall far from the
tree. just watch bmw navigate a myriad of obstacles,
straight up at high speed.

Moves... August 2009
- Hyperfest 2009:
Angerman Raw and Uncut Hyperfest 2009. On a wet weekend
in West Virginia, Won Ton met his long lost nephew Angerman. The
chaos that ensued was monumental. The drifting that took place
was even a step above that. Request for this footage came from
Angerman himself.... so let it be written, so let it be done. The
subtitle for this movie is Drifting 401.

- Chip at Clubloose East Coast Bash 2
I was tasked to make a movie with a limited amount of raw
footage. All I had was a little video and the name "Chip".
I sent this off to one of my writers and within an hour he comes up
with this concept. I was not impressed, but marketing saw
potential and forced me to edit it. Screenwriters are some sick,
twisted individuals.
- Clubloose East Coast Bash 2
Welcome to Englishtown New Jersey. Drift event filmed at East
Coast Bash for Bible on Saturday May 30th.

- 2009 Carlisle Steve
Stark Steve was killing the track every chance he had.
This is a small edit featuring his mad drift skillz. This was
filmed on a closed course, please keep your hands on the steering wheel
at all times. Do not try any of this on public roads.
- 2009 Carlisle
Suislide 240 and BIG White Truck Tandem Drift This is my
first Carlisle video ever. This was my first time to a car show
in Carlisle even though I have lived within an hour of the place my
entire life. I am somewhat happy with this edit. The
editing is minimal, so I was hoping to get some killer HD output that
would make your eyes bleed. Well, Sony Vegas likes to crash and
crash and crash while rendering. Sony Vegas seems to have issues
rendering HD video. Especially to wmv, my preferred format for
distribution. So, what should take 15 minutes to render, takes 2
hours of screwing around to get a lower quality HD video. Thank
you Sony.

- Tuner Icons 350Z on fire
it appears this site has STARTED allowing the use of CAPITALS.
since I am the only one who updates the site, I guess I have to agree
with myself. well, Matt's "hot" car got real "HOT" last weekend
at Clubloose. enjoy the video Mr. Spock. this is just a raw
video dump. if I was working, a little Van Halen "On Fire" would
have been in the backround. I guess I have to put this on youtube
now as it is. minus the VH.

- hyperfest 2008 the
hyperfest overview is complete. more cars, a few babes, and a lot
of drifting. drifting is not easy. i was surprised at the
skill required. you do not see the spinouts on the few televised
events i have seen. i made sure to get a couple of them in
here. by the way, do not rely on me to save humanity. it
appears some people have standards for this.

have you ever been for a ride in a 400RWHP Nissan 240, around a track,
sideways at 60mph. me neither, until yesterday. did you
ever go to a racing event where you hung out in the pits, got some
quality track time, and talked to some of the hottest twins on
the planet. me neither, until yesterday. once again, a
special thanks to the guys at import intelligence for hooking my car up
and juz from tria mera for hooking my ears up to some great aussie
metal. "import intelligence rocks!"
- life begins at 15
psi one car's journey is another car's dream. thanks
again to import intelligence in west chester pa for the gift of boost.
matt and company are master mechaincs ready to fulfill all your
import needs.
i am looking forward to joining the 400 club.

travel
- Grand Palladium
Riviera Maya Mexico 2009 A nice 1080 HD render of the beach
and palm trees at the Grand Palladium from August 2009.
- OCMD 2008 another
4th of july trip to ocean city md. this video is a good overview
of the week. it has highlights of evan's birthday party, a nice
boating sequence, booty shaking, fireworks, hooters girls, road
construction, and gives details of the latest wonton business venture,
"the wonton school of dance and club style."
- OCMD 2007
this video should have been done a while ago. however, due to the
high demand from the wonton sports division, it had to be put on hiatus
until now. it's not great quality, but it will download faster.
- ocean
city 71st apparently i stayed on 71st street in ocean city.
maybe
the video will help me remember the trip.
- iberostar dr somewhere south
of here exists the land of milk and honey. this time it was at an
iberostar resort in the dominican republic.
- iberostar tucan overview
i will have to watch this one to figure out where it's from.
mental note, i need a beer. i mean i need to watch the
movie and update the page. it's the tucan in playa del carmen
mexico. my boss recommended this place and it was well worth it.
not a sprawling resort, but nice sized with trees and foliage
everywhere. you were in the jungle baby, but it didn't bring you
down.
- tucan bad karoke these
people
were pretty bad. obviously no match for my superior singing
skills.
- tucan house band short
video
of the house band at the iberostar tucan. nice guys.
- tucan stand by me this was
the
pinnacle of my career. it was pretty cool. the rest of the
week
people would walk by and say there's the guy from the show the other
night.
there is an old saying,"fame always follows talent."
- iberostar paraiso beach
in some cases i had so much video i would divide them in to
shorter films. this is from the iberostar paraiso just north or
playa del carmen. expansive property, yet manageable. the
moon palace a few miles north is just too big. unless you have a
golf cart.
- iberostar puerto plata
this was my last trip to heaven on earth. this goes back to
2004.
i guess time flies when you build a house, a half pipe, a car,
and
ski your ass off in the winter. i need to do a little snorkeling
down
there again. that can solve any problem you may have with
anything.
you just need a little bread, your snorkel, a few rocks near the
beach
(the fishys like that), and a beer or two. the bartender and i
were
pals until the end of the week. no matter what happens from this
point
forward, if i die on this beach, i have had a good life. end of
story.
- viva las vegas las vegas
video for brainiac. circa 1999.
- vegas october 1999
my
second trip to vegas. after the first one, i needed a small posse
to
keep me under control. okay. encourage me to behave.
somewhat.
soccer
- brady pele if
memory serves me correct. this was brady's first or second season
where he played with casa. his first few years of soccer were not
about if he would score, but how many times he would score. we
played a lot of one on one at the old house. i would play easy on
him and let him score. one day, i decided to step it up and play
as hard as i possibly could against him. absolutely no mercy, as
fast as i could run. his playing immediately improved and
he stayed right with me. even though i am terrible at soccer, he
brought our aggressive game to the field and was no match for the other
kids.
- brady soccer slam
more goals, more domination. the evolution of the ace soccer
player. not much in the way of team skills at this point.

dillsburg shootout tournament. they lost every game but the last
one against dillsburg.
- wildcats versus strikers
mechanicsburg u9 wildcats playing dillsburg strikers. this video is a
pretty big deal for me. i just purchased a new computer, video
editing software, and moved the web site to a new host. i am glad
that's over. i just wish it would have been less windy when i
filmed this game. i had to keep the volume down on the crowd
noise.

featuring the motocross antics of strick, failor, nevin, stoner,
benny, and of course dasher.

- orlando 2001 so junior was
like 2.5 years old in this one. i hope this video will be the
highlight of his 10th birthday party. yes, the bmw will become a
double digit midget and will be way taller than his dad in the future,
guaranteed. his cousin landon keeps reminding me that he is
sixteen and is taller than me. well, landon was taller then me
when he was thirteen. so, i am getting use to the jokes.
well, i have more gray hair in my goatee then either of them.
ha!!! na na-na-na na. if they can even grow a goatee.

features my accountant, kos, on vocals. "simply riveting, catchy
guitar work" angus young, acdc
- mr. claus this is rated
pg-13. circa 2001. the rating is a catch 22 for me. i am
old enough physically to create it, but i am not allowed to listen to
it according to my documented mental age. starring wonton
as mr. claus, the neighbor, timmy, and everyone's favorite sally.
"sounds a little like mr. robinson, but much more riveting" eddie
murphy, comedian "this freak should definitely be on a
leash" jonathan davis, korn
where were you on friday july 3rd 1987? i was in a back yard,
playing guitar with detanator. i had no talent, but the other
three blokes were highly accomplished 14 or 15 year old musicians
at the time. i was just the lowly rhythm guitar guy.
this is a few tunes from that evening so long ago.
- 4 guitar solo
dave martin wailing. you hear some randy rhoades, eddie van
halen, and metallica things here. but it was
all dave.
- 11 metal church
the song metal chuch, from the album metal church, by the band metal
church. happy 20th anniversary metal church. i just saw
them with my pals dave and don
a few months back. i ran into detanator's bass player , john, at
that show. first time i saw him in like ten
years. i went to the metal church show with him at the
metron way back before i could drive "legally", like 18 or 19 years
ago. pick a random thursday, head to a local
club, and run into your old bass player from 18 years ago. a very cool
evening indeed.
