Interview with JAKE COOK

“Attention Spans” is all footage of you, filmed by you, right?

Attention Spans is all footage of me filmed by no one. I just set my phone up and do a trick

What did you use to film the clips?

I just use my iPhone and I bought a tripod that came when I googled “durable phone tripods” cause I’ve gone through like 3 just this year

How long did it take you to make Attention Spans?

The first clip I got for the video was on September 18th and I uploaded the video November 14th

Where are all these spots you take us to in ATTENTION SPANS?

Most of the spots in the video are in Elgin. Two of them are in south Elwin

That iconic wallride spot, did you make that?

The only thing I contributed to the wallride spot was I dragged the wood over from a building down the street. My friends Sean and Kitt had done the Bondo at the bottom of the bank (it had been an Ollie up style bank forever) so I mentioned how it would be cool if it were a wallride. One day kitt sent me a picture that he had zip tied that board to the fence. Actually I recently had to put new zip ties on it, I knocked it down doing the nollie fs wallride

You have been collecting a lot of hammers over the course of these short videos, are you going to compile them into a bigger project?

I don’t have any plans to make a longer video out of DAE, MID SOMMAR, ATTENTION SPANS, or SAD BOY WINTER

I don’t like to make stuff with clips I’ve used already I always like my edits to be fresh, but winter is long so who knows if I’ll get bored and do it.

What is the soundtrack in ATTENTION SPANS?

What motivates you to keep ripping and making videos all by yourself?

How old is your baby?
