Weekend Excursion
This doesn’t really have anything to do with video production other than it’s a video itself. I took a friend to visit Wolf Creek Habitat for her birthday and we got a treat – dozens of wolves all howling at once. I quickly grabbed a few seconds of video on my T2i. Back to regularly […]
Three Fest!
Our film was accepted into a small short film festival in South Bend called Three Fest. It’s a three minute festival, so like I said previously, I had to cut our film down a little from the 5 minute runtime. The festival takes place next Saturday, February 5th. Hopefully we get some good news. On […]
fxphd
I signed up for fxphd today (finally). I’ll be randomly posting interesting things I make as a result of my new knowledge over the course of the next 12 weeks. I’m using these courses to dig deeper into motion graphics work (particularly because my college education in this area was totally abysmal and it’s difficult […]
Some Photography…
I finally got outside with my new Canon 550D/T2i today and did some updated portraits for my yoga instructor friend Amanda. She needed some to start a new section of her newsletter, and wanted to get a few in the snow. So we went outside for an hour at the Indianapolis Museum of Art’s Garden. […]
Goals for 2011
Now that I’ve seen where I came from in 2010, I need to make a few goals for 2011. 1. Get out and shoot regularly. There is no excuse for me to not get out and shoot some video anymore because Santa brought me a Rebel t2i for Christmas. 2. Get out and shoot stills […]
3fest
I (somehow) edited Cooper O’Brien down from its 5 minute runtime to 3 minutes to submit to a short short film festival in South Bend called 3fest. I wasn’t sure I’d be able to trim nearly 2 minutes from it without compromising the story (as it was already extremely compact as it was), but it […]
Professional Resolutions – 2010
So earlier this year I made some resolutions for 2010, and I updated myself about halfway through the year. So how did I do for 2010 as a whole?
Doctor Who Quote
A quote from 2010’s Doctor Who Christmas special, “A Christmas Carol”: “On every world, wherever people are, in the deepest part of the winter, at the exact mid-point, everybody stops and turns and hugs. As if to say, ‘Well done. Well done, everyone! We’re halfway out of the dark.’” Relevant blog post soon about why […]
It takes an army…
I’m going to be submitting our 48 hour film short to another short film fest called 3fest (trying to ride this one film we made out as long as possible obviously). The problem was it was about 5 minutes long and obviously 3fest has a maximum runtime of 3 minutes, so I needed to trim […]
