Anyone catch the NASCAR Awards ceremony yesterday? Jimmy Johnson won the championship. When he was called up to the mic, his super hot blonde wife pulled out a grey Braun Nizo (not sure which model, although it looked like a 561) and started shooting.

The Hero's Journey by Christopher Vogler is a great read on the monomyth, as is Save The Cat and Save The Cat Goes to Movies by Blake Snyder

That H2 seems cool; however, I gotta have xlr. So, I'd rather have this:

Roger,
Great painting. Thanks for sharing it! I just bought my daughter a nice wooden easel, various paints, brushes, canvases, etc. She draws all the time and now wants to try painting. Any advise, suggestions for how to really get her started on her first painting? She's 8.
Thanks
Victor

She holds that thing like a pro--two-handed grip. She knows how to work it

"I tried hard to impart a character to the imagery that would make it feel like film, or at least older than the footage I initially saw from the Viper. I struggled with the technology to give it a look of film - and I think we were pretty successful. It's very banal. It's very dull. That is w...

Strange that you should feel the need to actually TELL us you're leaving. Just leave dude. Don't parade yourself. Go make your movies.

That's a great neon clown. The thing is massive and one of the great pop culture icons of the San Fernando Valley. It's been in quite a few Hollywood movies. The nice thing about Spectra's move is that they're closer to me!

I get a little self-conscious when I'm out shooting. I was camping in Carpinteria SB a couple of weeks ago and filming my kids with my Canon 518 when a guy on his bike stops and starts asking me all about my camera. "Is that a 16mm camera?" he asked. I explained. Turns out he was a video p...

A great man. Let's not mourn that he died but celebrate that he lived! Thanks for your knowledge and your humanity, John. See you in the next world.

Very sad to hear John died. Cancer is a motherf--r. My uncle died of colon cancer a few years ago. He shriveled up just like John in only four months. Traditional cancer therapy (drugs, radiation treatment, etc.) is a farce. Although it may help some people recover, I'm willing to bet that it fails ...
