Aaron is now professionally known as Aaron Stewart-Ahn. Please see what he has to say below:
April 11th sees the US release on DVD and the iTunes music store of 'Directions' - a longform music video project created for Grammy nominated band Death Cab for Cutie via Atlantic Records. 'Directions' translates every song from the album 'Plans' into music videos; emphasizing creative freedom and directors' visions.
In addition to conceiving the project and producing it, I also directed one of the videos which will screen for free from April 9-16 at

US based alumni can read about the project in the new issue of Res magazine, likewise stories are available here:

There are plans afoot to bring the project to the UK, and festival screenings in Europe, too.
A few weeks ago I won the Plug Independent Music Award for video of the year for my first video, "16 Military Wives" for the band The Decemberists (who you can find on Rough Trade in the UK and Capitol in the US).
