Against SOPA and PIPA (as worded as of this posting)

I'm not normally political, or an activist, per se, in anything. But SOPA and PIPA as worded (as of this posting) I cannot agree with. 

This is my taking part.

Pretty Much Whatever is Awesome Channel

So I have started a collection of Vimeo videos I've come across over the last year or so that have been, perhaps, inspirational, something that made me laugh (out loud), something that I really enjoyed; essentially, anything that was pretty awesome.

So if you are bored, have a minute, and want to partake in some awesomeness, check out these videos from some pretty talented people.

I warn you, if you are "safe" in your morality, not all of these will be for you. Some of these are artsy, perhaps earthy, too earthy; some may not make sense; some you might consider inappropriate at best. 

But sometimes I think you pass through the storm instead of trying to go around it.

Cheers.

Eastwood Christian Promo

Had some older footage from an Eastwood Christian School project that was put on hold, and decided to make a short promo with it so I could test out my coloring (still - always doing that I suppose) and a new slow motion tecnique (slowing clips in one timeline to 80% of original speed, then placing into another timeline and slowing that timeline down another 80%) I just heard about.

Not too shabby. If only I could've decided more with where I wanted to go with my coloring. Oh well, here it is nonetheless.

I Gotta Color

I finally bit the bullet and got some more coloring plug-ins for After Effects. This is my first real trial run with Magic Bullet Colorista II. Plus, it helped that I got to see someone in action coloring their footage, so this is my run at it as well. I actually quite like what Colorista II is able to give me.

Shot at Kraze with the ever enjoyable Kadie. 

BOOM! I filmed her anyway after she got embarrased. 

Shot on a 7D, using Technicolor Cinestyle, colored in After Effects using default color correction processes as well as Colorista II.
