London-based video maker on his Grammy nomination
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 11 December 2008
Among the UK nominees to appear in the recent Grammy Award shortlists was a 25 year old video director by the name of Paul Caslin, who is nominated for his first international video commission, the promo to Rihanna’s ‘Good Girl Gone Bad Girl’.
The video is up for the Best Long Form Music Video Award and puts him up against some of the most established directors in the game, including former Oscar winners Murray Lerner and Peter Bogdanovich.
Commenting on his nomination, Caslin, who works for London based production company JJ Stereo, told CMU: “The last year has been amazing, having directed a fellow Liverpudlian Sir Paul McCartney, plus my first TV series, Ibiza Rocks with Sony Ericsson. But this, an actual Grammy nomination – in a category amongst Oscar winners – takes the biscuit. I think I’ll definitely need to be buying a new suit!”
