What could be better?

...with the doctor-recommended 20ccs of .45-70govt

Where do we draw the line between dream and reality? Sometimes, we don't have to. The summer of 2021 found me adventuring in central Wyoming again, working as a wrangler and ranch hand in the Wind River mountains. Memories are made everywhere we go, but it ain't every day that they mark you like this. Unusual to my typical formula, this video was a collaboration with another creator, Victoria Lilly, who supplied many of the great captures throughout, as well as all the shots featuring myself. What does it mean if it all means nothing? Well, sometimes "nothing" is what we need to remember the most. Trivial and life-shaping, slow and fast, quiet and bombastic. Big days chasing horses, or small moments cleaning the yard. My time in this country, with these faces, these horses and hills, these memories. Nothing lasts forever...but what we keep with us will be remembered as long as forever lasts. So, to one of the most formative and meaningful places I've ever lived, let this video serve as a goodbye. For now, at least.

(2018) It's been 6 years since I posted my original gun spinning demo reel, and it's time to up the ante! Although the rubber gun used in my original video was a law enforcement copy and was accurate to the real thing in size and weight, due to the seemingly endless comments about it "not being real", I decided to forego the rubber gun altogether in this vid and use exclusively real firearms. So take that, you bunch of keyboard commandos. I also use live ammunition in some select shots, and I did so carefully - please be responsible, guys. The firearms used are a 4.75" Uberti Cattleman, a 5.5" Pietta Rough Rider, and a 7.5" Uberti SAA with an Army grip. Thanks and enjoy!

This film was written by a traveler who always remembered a childhood visit to Death Valley National Park as one of the most important keystones in his life. Fifteen years later, he returns to the spot to say a final thanks. Narrated through a series of journal entries, he recounts the effect the park had on him as a teenager, explores the philosophy of desert lovers, reflects on the importance of freedom, and realizes the love of his friends. A tribute to wandering, an experiment in philosophy, and a lovesong to the Mojave desert, Return To Death Valley will leave you wondering what lies next for all of us. This film is dedicated to the friends that first helped me on my voyage into the unknown: Mike Miller, Nick Miller, Jon Miller, and Sean Wing. Written and created by Kade Kreger Director of Photography (desert sequences): Jacob Hilger Director of Photography (urban sequences): Regina Velasco Additional footage and b-roll: Lisset MendoZa, Andrew Hopkins, Lane Genovese, and Sean Wing Special appearances and thanks to: Jack Rogas, Ryan Lally, Jeremy Hilger, Summer Hilger, and Nathan Wing Cameras used: Canon 5D MKII Canon 7D Sony A7sii Sony A6300 Canon Gx9 Created with DaVinci Resolve 16 Director’s notes: This project began in 2014, when I made a pilgrimage back to Death Valley National Park for the first time since my childhood. The idea was simple at first; to revisit the spots shown in my old tapes, and relive the footage with an older eye. But as often happens, the project soon grew in scope and production as existential ideas began to evolve in the background. I made several more dedicated trips to the park over the next few years, alone and with different friends, gathering more than enough footage of the landscape. Later, I decided to expand the project even further within a frame of outside vignettes, bringing other influences and ideas into play and turning the film into a philosophical piece about much broader topics, which only vaguely resembled the original concept. In the end, the result was scattered and somewhat rambling; as such, it will probably be fully understood by few outside of my closest friends. But regardless of how entertaining this artifact may or may not be to a general audience, my hope is that it reaches someone, somewhere, on their own journey of self-discovery.

The Italian six-gun is often a misunderstood beast. Join me as I make a case for this enigma of historical oddity, and showcase just how fun a spaghetti shooter can be! "Sinopa" was one of my first handguns, and certainly my most personal. Starting life as a Heritage-branded Pietta 1873, this pistol has undergone a transformation, becoming a horse packer's sidearm, a beer can trick performer, a self-defense lifeline, and even a movie star. This video is the first of what I hope to be a lengthy new series, in which I will showcase several rare, modified, or otherwise under-represented firearms from my collection. Stay tuned!

San Francisco, 1934. In the wake of Prohibition, the world of underhanded dealings is evolving, the criminal underground growing in new directions. Exciting new opportunities are ripe for the taking by young, motivated “businessmen” like the dashing Mr. Krenshaw. For him, contacts, associates and family matters are a way of life, and he plans to go far in his new career with his new “friends”. But even when going according to plan, things can get complicated fast, and you can never be too sure of who is watching you... This film was produced in 2016 by LBL Productions and Dreamwalker Films. Originally screened on May 1st, 2016 to a private audience, the film spent the next year making appearances at film festivals. Now, the film is finally available in a Director’s Cut, featuring improved color correction, sound editing, and other minor changes. Enjoy the show! SPECIAL thanks to all of our supporters on GoFundMe who helped make this film a reality! Your generosity and undying support were priceless during this process. We never could have made this project without you all. THANK YOU. Be sure to check out actor Alex Suarez’ spinoff monologue to Mr. Krenshaw here: https://rumble.com/vbyzdh-carl-speaks.html Here’s the original video we made for GoFundMe, which discusses some of the history of TGG: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvR-crbO3O0 Written and directed by Kevin Kreger. Produced by Liliana Maldonado and Josh Dono. Assistant Directed by Geoffrey Kristiansen. Cinematography by Lisset Mendoza. Edited by Regina Velasco and Kevin Kreger. Starring Alexander Suarez, Kevin Strickland, Jacob Hilger and Chima Rok. Filmed on location at San Pedro, CA. Shot on two Sony A7s cameras and an Atomos 4K external recorder. A variety of lenses were used, including vintage photography lenses. All the vintage suits, hats, ties, etc. were supplied by the director. The 1930 Ford Model A was generously loaned and driven by owner Red Sickman. For all my curses during the production, this film will always be one of my proudest works and favorite memories. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as we all enjoyed creating it.

How long have I been away...? Through the seasons of 2017, 2018, and 2019, I worked as a wrangler, camp jack, packer, and guide in various parts of west and central Wyoming. Over the course of these years I saw many things I never imagined, living a life I had only ever dreamed about. This video will hopefully serve as a window into my time in this corner of the country, a mere snippet of the adventures that I will always cherish. Come take a walk through the mountains, and meet me in the woods... Featuring music by Lord Huron- Additional photography by Jordan Settlemire and Victoria Lilly- This video is for the many loving friends and family that I have made and held over the last few years. But in particular, this video is dedicated to the memory of Zach Marquez, a young packer who passed away in early 2019. Zach showed me the purity of a passionate outdoorsman, and I will always be grateful for the season that we spent together. Rest in peace...

Co-pilot, technically. But she felt like she was in charge

Follow us on a fantastic voyage of wonder and self-discovery that is fun for the whole family! (Well, we're not so sure about that, but it's one heck of a ride!)

TWO STUNTMEN IN HOLLYWOOD MADE A DEMO REEL AND YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT Thanks to my sponsors at Mountain Dew: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 (thanks for bearing with me, guys. Sometimes I have a little too much fun - real content is coming again soon, promise)

The spaghetti western returns with a vengeance! After weeks of tracking, U.S. Marshal James Anderson finally confronts Silas Whitaker - the cattle rustler responsible for kidnapping the Marshal's son - in a relentless brawl. But Silas' aggression pushes the honorable Marshal too far, and the tables suddenly turn, revealing the Marshal's true intentions as a dangerous proposition is made. Which is the crazier man? He who makes this outlawed prospect, or he who takes it? Men of true honor can never resist the lure of a second chance - even if it means certain death.

After shooting the short film "As Time Stands Still" in 2011 to a very surprising reaction, it became clear to me that I needed to make another tribute to the spaghetti Western; this time, something of a more cinematic scale, and a more authentic spirit. ATST was a fun demonstration in replicating past eras of filmmaking, but that aside, it was a novelty of a little movie, with no real substance or soul, and little purpose. I shot that film more as an exercise than anything, with little effort and no production value, and I felt cheap about it. I wanted to make something REAL, something I really cared about and could be proud of. It became a new goal for me. Nick Miller and I had been writing a loose movie treatment for about a year now, a project I had named "Outlawed Prospects" in honor of the old PC game "Outlaws" - one of our original inspirations for the story (the Marshal's character borrows his name and likeness from the protagonist of Outlaws). I adapted a climactic scene from the end of the full-length screenplay to stand as a basis for a new short, and this became "The End Is Near". I started drawing my first storyboards during film class of that semester, and began building the costumes for my two characters as a first step to production value. I worked silently on collecting further resources until the Summer of 2013, when I managed to build a crew of the most fantastic people I've ever known and set out to finally make the production, no holds barred. It was a dream come true. I sought to make this film in the footsteps of my most inspirational role model, Sergio Leone. Painstaking attention to detail was paid to ensure we were getting as close as we possibly could to the films of this director, but other, smaller details were dictated from elsewhere in movie history: Once Upon a Time in the West (1968) remains the primary influence for the End Is Near, but other inspirations include: Django (1966), Unforgiven (1992), The Hellbenders (1967), Raiders of the Lost Ark (1980), The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (1967), True Grit (2010), Face to Face (1967), The Aviator (2003), Duck, You Sucker! (1971), Tombstone (1993), The Big Gundown (1966) and Eagle's Wing (1979), among countless others. Special thanks to my incredible crew and best friends, who helped me bring this project to reality. Your loyalty and faith in me can never be returned, I am forever in debt to you all and am honored to have your support. We made this film together and we will remember it forever.

2013. With all this talk of a new Star Wars movie, I was feeling a bit left out. Mr. Abrams, Nick Miller and I would gladly be a part of your new film. Thank you for the offer, we are both flattered. We each have a starting rate of 8 million/year.

Come and get it, ya bunch of freeloaders

A short improvised scene in which Carl Whitman, leader of “The Good Guys” tells all to Mr. Krenshaw. This scene was written/improvised by actor Alex Suarez as part of his immersion into the character of Carl. It was shot behind-the-scenes on the set of “The Confusion of Mr. Krenshaw”.

Lonesome places out West... In the latter half of 2015, I spent 6 months wandering the Northwestern U.S., working as a horse wrangler, maintenance worker and wilderness guide in the greater Teton/Yellowstone national forest areas of Wyoming, with small stints in nearby Idaho and Montana. I experienced more that season that I ever had before, seeing places I’d never dreamed of, accomplishing things personally I never thought possible, and growing closer to nature than I could have ever hoped. This video serves as a mere condensed snippet of those adventures...a small token of the experiences that will forever remain indescribable. Thank you for your time. *additional note* Against my usual nature, I chose not to color-grade this footage, mostly in the name of time and sanity (would have taken me a year probably, with the number of clips involved), but also to preserve a feeling of reality. This footage has not been altered in any way outside the camera.

A little journey to the unknown… 2016 was a strange year for me, finding myself caught between lifestyles and uncertain of where to go next. Somehow, I ended up guiding in the Northwest, where I worked and wandered through the US border states and into Canada. The following footage was gathered from Idaho, Montana, Washington, British Columbia, and Alberta. Strange adventures on some strange trails...come along for the ride.

Sometimes you just have to get stupid. Featuring the legendary Bixby Moto! This upload is the 2016 "Special Edition" that fixed a couple of mistakes and added some minute, but improving, differences. The original will always be available on YouTube - at least, until it gets removed for "guideline violations". Director’s notes: I pursued this video with fellow filmmaker Jake Hilger as a way for the two of us to decompress from taking film too seriously. I thought the idea of two overstuffed 1980’s badasses slugging it out on rickety little mopeds was a funny one, and after a couple of afternoons listening to a few Retro New Wave songs, I had the shot list ready. It wasn't long before my friends at Bixby Moto could smell the stupid and jumped on board. The style of High Five is inspired by action hero flicks of the 1980’s, such as "Terminator 2" (Kev's costume was based off the T-1000 in that movie) and "Mad Max", with a little bit of "Top Gun" thrown in for good measure. The color grading in many shots was inspired by 1990's “Days Of Thunder”. And yes, the inconsistent lighting and variable color timing is completely intentional. It’s called having fun. Deal with it.
