Roger Pistole is a truly amazing visual stylist.
His ground-breaking music videos continue to delight and
amaze audiences, artists and clients. He is able to bring
a fresh eye to a form some people think peaked years ago.
An organic photographic style, paired with
his ability to capture each subject's individuality, make
his work refreshingly authentic, ranging
from dementedly comic to heart-wrenchingly emotional.
In the last few years Roger has been bringing
that same talent to the commercial world, directing spots
for the State of Kentucky, Fontbonne University, Buffalo
Trace Distilleries, The Tennessee Lottery, Logan's Roadhouse
and McDonalds of St Louis, among others.
Roger's film work boldly conveys his prior
artistic & filmmaking experiences: Assistant to famed
illustrator Don Ivan Punchatz, Computer animation, Big budget
movies through out the US and in Europe, Co-writing the
screenplay False River (a recent indie feature). Roger Pistole
lives in Nashville and Los Angeles.
