Video of the Day: A Tale of Two Bean Bags

Posted on June 23rd, 2008

Melinda and I went to Mashed last weekend and we were asked to make 2 small fake movie trailers, to be shown before the main feature of the evening “Young Frankenstein“. Challenged to improve on our Torchwood Swede, we started thinking of some scripts. Melinda eventually wrote one script that lead to this little fake trailer

More successfully though, was the movie edited and directed by us that shot by Melinda and Jane Tandy using my Nikon D40.

Video of the Day: The Machine that Changed the World

Apparently Waxy.org has the habit of posting videos that are completely out-of-print and unavailable commercially, digitized from old VHS recordings. I have recently been following a 5 part series on the history of the computer from 1992. Very, very interesting, and very happy to see people digitize this to make it available to all.

Here is the first part, for all parts go to Waxy.org.

Video of the Day: BarcampLondon4 Videos - Part 1

Posted on June 6th, 2008

I haven’t posted any videos (or blogged at all) in the last few days, but I was at BarcampLondon4 last weekend and took the opportunity to record most of the sessions I attended. Now, unfortunattely for me this led to multiple GigaBytes of video, and as Vimeo has a 500mb per week upload limit, I have only been able to upload 1GB of video using Melinda’s and my account

You can find all the videos on this Vimeo BCL4 channel, and more videos will be posted tomorrow. I leave you now with some video from the Faceball tournament I won during the event.

Video of the Day: Making Breakfast

Posted on May 26th, 2008

After shooting the Torchwood swede, I got very interested in owning my own camera. So, yesterday I bought my own HDD camera (a Sony DCR-SR100) and today I was able to pick it up. I directly shot a little movie to test the workflow. It’s nothing special but it the premiere.

Video of the Day: The Tramway in HD

Posted on May 23rd, 2008

This video, shot in HD with a Sony EX1, makes me long for my own HD camera. Just have to find the money and right offer though.
