VIDEO. PYTHON LIFE OF BRIAN DEBATE

Posted by on Jan 31, 2013 in BLOG | 0 comments Funny to think the LIFE OF BRIAN Concept started as Eric’s joke of “Jesus Christ Lust for Glory” WOW how wonderful to have found this. I truly have felt inspired by the amazing creativity of Graham Chapman, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin, John Cleese, Eric Idle and Terry Jones over the years. Amazing stuff. Just stumbled upon this on youtube after watching something dry about...

BUILT A STEADY CAM RIG FOR VIDEO CAMCORDER. EASY PEASY.

Posted by on Nov 26, 2012 in BLOG | 0 comments Hey, so this is not going to replace a super fancy steady cam rig of any sort, but this works well to minimize some jarring movements. I found the how to on the web and it was easy and cheap to build $10 max I bet plus hockey tape cost. Anyway the three grip points allow you to spread out how the camera is held and it can be moved more gently. I think it works just fine. A steady cam rig that is...

VIDEO. 7 PSYCHOPATHS WORTH SEEING.

Posted by on Nov 22, 2012 in BLOG | 0 comments Wow. I was so impressed. I love a complicated story too. Saw this flick a couple nights ago at the Rio theatre (which is so much more fun than Cine-dork) and was really entertained, shocked and amused too. Laughed out a loud more than a few times too. Great flick. I was not as giddy for In Bruges, but this really hits the mark. Interested to hear what others think. Although I think you should...

RUNNING THE GRAND CANYON. A GRAND ADVENTURE.

Posted by on Oct 31, 2012 in BLOG | 0 comments What a grand adventure indeed! Last week I had the exhausting pleasure of running most of the Canyon and back. 28 miles from Phantom Ranch to North rim and back. I did that in 6:30 and am pleased with that. The real full deal is doing Rim to Rim to Rim, but with the North rim being closed, and with that being 70 plus km (44 miles) if I did Rim to rim to rim, I would not been able to do much else...
