Nikon D40/D60 Battery Grip Review [HD]

25 Sep

Hello, During this video I will be showing the Targus BG-D40 Battery Grip for the Nikon D40,D40x, and D60. This is a great battery grip, I bought this because Nikon doesn’t carry a battery grip for the D40,D40x, and D60. The only problem that I see with this grip is that it acts like a remote when using the Vertical Shutter, and when shooting there is no halfway point on the button so it tries to focus REALLY fast. Other than that I love the feel of the grip and how much more battery it adds. There is some weight added on, but it’s good weight. If you would like to buy this grip, heres the link, www.walmart.com

Negotiating for photographers

25 Sep

One of the issues that always comes up for emerging photographers is dealing with contracts and negotiation.  Let’s face it – most of us are more “artist” than “businessman”.  we just want to make pictures and leave the legalese to someone else. 

Of course the reality is that to be a successful *artist* you must be a successful *businessman* as well. 

Go to any photography forum on the web and you will invariably find questions such as “how do I make a contract/terms for such and such a job?” or “the client sent me this crazy contract to sign, what do I do?”

In this piece, Bill Cramer of Wonderful Machine, Inc shows an actual contract negotiation he had with an editorial client, including exchanges, contracts and revisions.   This is a fantastic read for any photographer and a perfect example of how to do it right.  In particular, notice how he responds to the disagreement in contract terms – guiding the exchange to a mutually satisfactory agreement, rather than stonewalling and confronting. 

This is great stuff folks!

The Flower

24 Sep

The Flower contrasts a utopian society that freely farms and consumes a pleasure giving flower with a society where the same flower is illegal and its consumption is prohibited. The animation is a meditation on the social and economic costs of marijuana prohibition.

MTBS-TV, Modern Stereoscopic 3D Gaming History, Part V

24 Sep

Would you believe that stereoscopic 3D gaming on console started out with foot in mouth disease? Learn how things REALLY got started, and how a slip of the tongue could very well have launched the industry as we know it. This video talks about everyone include Blitz Games Studios, Epic Games, Sony, Xbox, and more. Visit www.mtbs3d.com and http to learn more about stereoscopic 3D gaming. Visit www.mtbs3D.com for a list of compatible 3D games.

This clip was shot to illustrate the effect that most people associate with 3D – negative parallax – that of an object or person reaching out beyond the screen. You’ll forgive my rather intense look – I’m concentrating on the video camera feedback monitor to make sure the grabber doesn’t reach outside the frame. You’ll notice it does though – watch how this spoils the illusion momentarily as the grabber breaks the stereoscopic window. We’ll be showing you how to carefully produce this astonishing effect for yourselves very soon. In the meantime our demo clips are of this sequence so have a go for yourself at setting the screen depth and seeing how this varies the effectiveness of the grabber.

3D floating arm [anaglyph, need glasses] JAWS 3 3-D

24 Sep

Image better on small screen. Use red blue glasses.

After seeing James Cameron’s Avatar in 3-DI was so amazed that I started doing some experiments with 3-D film. This video requires Anaglyph glasses to work.
