Math 52

Get your learn on. A Kickstarter initiative aimed at making boring stuff fun to learn. Hang in there, the beginning is kind of weak...

Sunshine

Here's a great mini doc. I think it's pretty good for a couple of reasons; it speaks to the idea that that we're all artist trying to find avenues to do our art (for better or worse). It also touches on the industry, client-relationship-dynamics, travel and the sobering effects of globalization (there's a lot that fifteen minutes). Lastly, I found it to be very well done, technically speaking, and the Benet's "character" as this grumpy cynic. The video was posted on Motionographer but has since been pulled and made private, dumb, but I was able to find it else where... and it won't embed...

Nikon - WHY

Whilst trying to find some bitchin' examples of extreme mountain biking for an upcoming shoot I found this little gem featuring the Nikon D4. I really like these camera demos because they are simply justified and unabashed eye candy. There's also an obligatory behind-the-scenes article.

Jim Rohman Photography

Back in college I interned at this photography studio for a couple of months. This was back when DSLRs were just starting to become popular for filming. I would talk to them about video and codecs while they would teach me about lenses and exposure and stuff. I just recently hung out with one of the dudes that still works there and they are increasingly interested in doing more video work.
