In this episode of Crossing Dumbo, Blue Barn Pictures interviews Ken Goto, a business partner at the popular chocolate shop, Jacques Torres Chocolate.

Ken talks about how he got started in the business and why he and Jacques fell in love with Dumbo.
Crossing Dumbo, a web series of video portraits of artists, entrepreneurs and residents in Dumbo Brooklyn. This is a collaboration between DumboNYC and our talented friends over at Blue Barn Pictures. Different directors from Blue Barn Pictures, a creative content agency, bring their own approach to each interview to create a distinct profile of the person being interviewed and place them within the Dumbo community. The group at Blue Barn Pictures truly love what they do and support the community in a positive way, and for that we’re grateful to have them be a part of Dumbo.
During the 2011 Dumbo Art Festival last week, Blue Barn Pictures showcased the Crossing Dumbo videos at their studio. A new website for Crossing Dumbo crossingdumbo.com was also released last week. (photos courtesy of Blue Barn Pictures):
