Brain Pickings-The Network

2012-02-11T14:41:49Z

I am probably more intrigued by the visualiation in use here. The notion that we have bits ourselves scattered around carrier networks is not really new to me or the people I tend to pal around with...but its eye catching how this was done. Credit to the Brain Pickings blog for sharing this with me.

Crowdsourcing Star Wars Fan Film

2012-01-23T15:04:54Z

This is genius...and still a ton of work. Back in 2009, thousands of fans were asked to submit their version of 15 seconds of Star Wars. The best submissions were peiced together and just now released...2 years in the making. Star Wars Uncut

Gadget Lust - New Nikon

2012-01-13T19:51:48Z

The new Nikon D4 is out. I am still very happy with my D7000 but I am really happy to see Nikon duking it out with Canon in the DLSR video market..Canon is WAYYYY aheada..but this looks fantastic.

A great 'show off' video using nothing but D4's

Steve shared this one with me. Nice style for some future customer videos here perhaps.

And a very nice technical walk through:

The Interotron

Just found this article with great background on a simple technique I had never thought of. The general idea centers on making an interviewee comfortable when you want them to look into camera, instead of an off-camera producer style, yet still keep them grounded and effective.

High Pressure Job Interview

2011-07-20T15:06:03Z

Saw this on the morning news the other day...to me, it represents the challenge of being on your best behavior for a job interview only to be mistakenly thrust into the studio and put on air. The BBC is certainly busy..but it does make you question how fast they are moving and how little the hosts really know when they bring a guest on. It would be hard to maintain a pace otherwise I am sure. This must have seemed like some incredible test for this guy...watch his face closely. It is both hilarious and admirable that he maintained a bit of conversation to keep it going. I do not believe he was trying for any kind of on camera job...but he does better than many people I have worked with who wanted to be on TV.

Inspirational Layers

Talk about an interesting way to look at layers and doing motion on still photography. David Hill is an LA based photographer with a really interesting look. This is extremely cool.

John Lasseter - Day in the Life

2011-07-18T19:15:28Z

I have always been amazed at the string of success coming out of Pixar. This is a really nice 25 minute look at a Day in the Life for the person who pioneered the first computer animated feature film with Toy Story and has built a team racking up a lot of great characters and storylines. The background with Steve Job's and what hapened with the Disney War's is an interesting back story for anyone interested.

We recently released what I think is one of the most interesting and direct demonstrations of our CleanAir technology vs. the marketing claims of a very stout competitor. Take a look and let me know what you think.
