    Terrible Terrible Terrible. I hate shit talking, but this makes me furious and its so despicable that it needs to come to light. Someone had apparently posted about his fraudulent credit claiming on Craigslist and Alex got wind of it early this morning and removed basically everything off of his site. After researching a bit last night, everything started to make sense... How i met him on a low budget shoot, why he handed me a card if i ever needed a DIT etc... Luckily i did a bunch of screen grabs before he removed the content. Let the images speak for themselves:

    Culprit: Alex Yane
    Website: alexvisual.com
    Email: alexvisualbox@gmail.com

    Firstly, some links to actual credits:

    KIA: Joydride

    MINI: The Best Ride. Ever.

    Taylor Swift - Back to December

    plus many many more... If you recognize a video and have a link, feel free to respond with it.

    There is also a film section which i didn't post up here...

    If you'd like to download all the screen shots and photos, here is the ZIP file -

    Truly sad that he was able to do it, but i feel worse for the jobs he was awarded that didn't get the caliber of content they would have expected. On the bright side, i do believe people change... eventually.

    That's pretty shameless. There's some really good commercial dp's in there. How the hell, in this day and age do, you think you could get away with that?

    This shit makes me mad. I almost emailed him. This BS is akin to identity theft and is taking food out of hardworking talented people and their families mouths. F this dude.

    Hilarious:

    The thing is, anyone working in the higher end of the ad industry will already know who shot that stuff.

    Well I am DEFINITELY NOT Alex Yane!!! And I DO own Scarlet #0024

    This actually sickens me...I am literally sick to my stomach. That this sorry excuse for a film professional has now associated me somehow with his
    ridiculous claims.

    I am a bonafide 25 year plus professional and everything on my website I personally shot and edited. Other than the incredible odds of the parasite
    choosing my serial number- I don;t know him and don't ever care to.
