Since he was a kid, YouTube star Casey Neistat has been obsessed with the work of Spike Jones. In his latest vlog, he brings his hero to his studio for the very first time, a meeting 15 years in the making. The vlog opens with the latest issue of Resource Magazine, featuring our “Relationship Issue” cover story with Casey’s wife, Candice. We’re then given a nostalgic look at Casey’s long-time devotion to Jones’ work, from clips of The Beastie Boys’ 1994 music video for ‘Sabotage’ to a poetic telling of Casey’s repeated, increasingly frustrated attempts to capture the filmmaker’s throughout his early beginnings, alongside a selection of exclusive family photos and clips from the start of his career. “The greatest ambition, the greatest goal, the greatest dream I had at that time was to have my own ‘Directors Label’ DVD—to be honored the way Spike Jones had been honored,” said Casey of the 2004 Palm Pictures feature on Jones, one of his biggest inspirations of all time. Casey explains that Jones was in town for yesterday’s Samsung event, ‘a spotlight on real creators who embody the meaning of Do What You Can’t,’ according to the event invite. He also engraves Jones’ iPhone 7 by hand. Watch the video above!
