Monday Morning Seminar

1:56 pm:
In a seminar about special effects photography, The guy looks smart but doesnt set uip fast enough, i got a universal studios ride to ride sukka. lol well this blog is an informational blog and I’m saving everyone a trip to Orlando and bringing this seminar to you. yay. hahah we’re starting soon. Too bad i cant do this Apple Keynote style and send picture as well, but no, not to THAT level yet.

Looks like he’s using canons today. i hope to god that he has the super slow mo cam here. its amazing that things you can do with that. (CHECK: gizmodo.com’s many videos with slo-mo.

Im sporting the black macbook, the only one in the room besides the speaker. Im getting those hate PC user dirty looks. They are so lame.


2:00 PM
It has begun. he seems decent. good talker. mmmm he forgot the second point. this guy is a real steve jobs eh.

He needs to prepare his pres a little more. but hes charming.

We’re taking pictures of ballons popping. Im now deaf.

The ballon thing worked using a old tape recorder with a mic and a standalone flash hooked up into the 3.5mm headphone jack. Worked nicely, i will definatly have to try this.

Basically the presentation is using basic digital photography and using advanced techniques, trying to be affordable.



next is the ol’ ping pong ball exposure trick. old school
the picture came out nicely, and he also used a stroboscope the picture came out low light but he fixed it nicely. I expected more from this but its still a decent keynote.
