About Me: With many TV commercials and countless Docu-Promos and non-profit films under his belt, his
main concentration is in long form story telling in Documentaries and other avenues. In his
earlier years, Patrick was recognized by RockAmerica as the first video artist to pioneer video
"scratching". While employed as one of the first of the newly created positions of VJ's (Video
Jock) from 1981-85 at the Minneapolis premier and legendary Rock Club/Danceteria FIRST AVENUE,
Patrick utilized experimental techniques and innovative methods in video editing, creating
video wallpaper for the clubs huge video screen. It was at First Avenue that he first
previewed his re-edited or manipulated versions of Princes 1999 and Little Red Corvette, which
he had re-cut into elongated dance versions of the original videos while maintaining the songs
original BPMs (beats per minute). This caught the eye of Prince during a visit to the club,
which led to directing his first "live" Prince concert. This also was the beginning of a
ten-year working relationship between the two artists. Highlights include: "Alphabet Street"
(Music Video), "Sexy MF" (Music video-club version), and "Three Chain of Gold" (Funkumentary).
Patrick has directed several live concerts, as well as various directing, shooting and editing
& projects for Prince & Paisley Park artist. Music Video for Paisley Park artists include
include: "Tweakin" for George Clinton and "Little Rock" for Eric Leeds. In those earlier
times, Patrick was fortunate to direct a number of live in-house concerts at the legendary
venue for up and coming artists such as -Culture Club, The Cure, Motorhead, The Thompson Twins,
The Time, Husker Du, The Suburbs...and many more. Patrick's talents now have been called
upon all over the globe, including France, Italy, and Japan.
