Canon and Vimeo – Film Contest

I use Vimeo, (I’ve been told not to) and I also use Nikon (and I’ve been told not to) but when it comes to something as cool as this, I had to share. Canon Inc. and Vimeo are coming together to put on a Film Contest with Vincent Laforet. You’ve probably heard me talk about him before. I am really interested in this upcoming video contest.

Mag+

This is a really cool concept on the new wave of magazines. Instead of putting video or “moving stills” in to your magazine (Harry Potter style), put your magazine in a large touch screen display. It would be great if all the magazines used this device and you could sync with your computer to download certain subscriptions of magazines. Like a podcast, that you pay for.

Bloopers and Outtakes – Playing with Video


Purely just bloopers and outtakes. This video was completely shot with my Nikon D3. I blasted away at 8fps and then threw it together for motion. The song you hear is Epic from local band and bro’s, On Call Heroes. They’re about to go record their second album, so go check them out. I hope to do more stuff like this in the future. It’s a really cool way of shooting video in my opinion.

Thanks to my friends for being the subjects, yet again, in one of my little projects. It would’ve been really boring without people in the video. Also, thanks to the band for the music. Again, really boring without it.

New Laforet Movie Posted by Canon, Then Taken Down

Canon needs to get their act together. They just released the Canon 1d MkIV. Or, just 1d4. Seriously how do they expect people to understand which camera is which? I still don’t know the difference between Canon’s 1d2 and 1d3 are.

You may remember when the 5dMkII or 5d2 came out with 1080p video that there was a video posted by director/photographer Vincent Laforet. It was called Reverie. It was quick, to the point and a very expensive short. I liked it. And it was the first video of it’s kind to be shot on an still camera. Now, we have hundreds of great videos out there all shot on SLR cameras. One of my favourite at the moment is by a photographer in Atlanta, USA. Andrew Kornylak did a whole series on bouldering and rock climbing where he shot interviews with the Nikon D5000 and then did still-video with the Nikon D3 by just blasting away and getting a cool, stop motion like feel.
