Here is a short video put together by reeldirector. Gives you a bit more of a look into the city Chicago!

Can someone please let me know how the video looks on a real computer or iPhone over wifi?

Hope you all enjoy.

Tonight my buddy Alan and I decided that he would teach me how to properly cook steak. If you have heard me rambling on or seen me pacing in the meat aisle… it’s because I have been wanting to cook steak for so long. I took the passenger seat this time around and let Alan take the wheel. We cooked steak, potatoes and green beans.

Dilema.

I am hungry and I also want to do some recording… I ended up filming dinner. This is the kind of compromise I can deal with.

Video Notes:

White balance is off for a bit of it, probably causing the food to look mutant. I shot the video of course with my Nikon D5000 and a 60mm f/2.8 macro lens. I used my $15 dollar ebay gorilla pod for the first time. It all worked quite well All videos are untouched.

So I have been struggling with quite a few things in life lately so it took me a lot longer than expected. I recorded this on the trolley awhile ago and have finally gotten around to editing it. I almost scrapped the project entirely a few times because I lost hope. I  just had to remember that I am not proud of the first images I ever took so it will be the same for video for quite some time. I guess this gives me a reason to grow.

All Videos are on YouTube in HD

I could not decide between black / white and color. So here are both.

Video Notes:

I have nothing but empathy for those who stride to create videos, those who are create just for themselves and don’t care about what other people think of their work. When it came down to it and why it took so long I was just embarrassed of this project because I smelled failure before I even started to edit. I used Final Cut Pro for everything. No editing to the actual clips besides making the clips B/W and opacity on a clip or two.

My heart goes out to those who create for themselves.

This is a short video I recorded while at the company bonfire. I knew I may be able to catch some fire lit faces and dark silhouettes.

All thrown together in 3 minutes so don’t judge

Video Notes:

No tripod = no steady shots. I shot at quite a high iso. this wasn’t for a serious project so I was just having fun and feeling out the camera.
