This is the first video that I have filmed in “Moby“ my mobile studio. I gutted a 15 passenger van and custom made the desk, cabinets, easel, bed, wall, and floor. There wasn’t enough room in my small apartment for a studio, so an awesome mobile studio was the alternative. A build video will be uploaded soon! #vanlife
