Ever have one of those days?

So what caused this guy to go so crazy? 27 flat panels smashed cuz someone ruffled his feathers? Maybe you shouldn't sell baseball bats in the same store you sell flat screen tvs.

File under, "You've got to be kidding!!"

Truly amazing slow motion.

Nuit Blanche from Spy Films on Vimeo.

 

so you have to see this... the level of work in it is staggering... really really amazing. This guy "Arev Manoukian" and his whole team of animator are just amazing. This the type of stuff that just blows my mind.
There is also a really incredible "making of" here.

I'm an Aperture fan.

I've never been really into Aperture, Apples pro level photo library app. When Apple released their latest update this week however, I downloaded it and I've been playing with it. A producer I work with asked me today what it was all about and I said, "It's basically 'iPhoto Pro'". I know that's a GROSS generalization but thats the best I could come up with.

It made me realize that I REALLY don't know that much about it but I've been playing with the new Version 3 Trial Version and I'm starting to really appreciate it.

If you want to learn more about it check my friends site. Aperture Expert. Joseph Linaschke use to work at Apple and really knows this app backwards and forwards and if you follow him on the twitters you know, he's really happy with this upgrade. 

But as it turns out... I think I'm becoming a fan of the app. BTW, it allows me to make HD QT movies from the slide shows, and it has some pretty nice themes. It will also allow me to embed by HDSLR movies from my 5DM2 or 7D... 

You may want to try the Trial Version whiles available... I'm hooked.

B&W hiding bad white balance?... Yep

Be honest... have you ever "decided" to make something black and white because you screwed up the white balance? I did. I mean, it works and all, and I could sit around and justify it for days, but the color on this piece was REALLY off.
