The Camera Store’s Chris Niccolls had a chance to use the very exciting Fujifilm X100 for a day. So he grabbed renowned photographer Tyler Stalman (www.stalman.com) and spent a day in the freezing Alberta cold taking photos. Chris and Tyler check out the innovative hybrid viewfinder, camera controls, and test out the amazing sync speed for flash photography. Huge thanks to Stephen Lemmer and Sean Chamberlain for enduring the cold to help us out!
i randomly decided to do this video, i didnt want any creative shit in it at all. just a straight up, raw studio shoot relying on my performance rather than any editing etc. we decided to work with the well known and very talented photographer kane hibbard. Because i wanted the video to be all 1 take it took a lot of takes to get it right, there are a few TINY fuck ups in this video (i hope you dont mind) but i felt the performance was the most powerful and moving takeso i decided against doing any editing to fix shit up just to keep that raw 1-take element to it. this is one of my favourite songs ive ever written, its easily one of the realest and deepest. performing it over and over was so hard – every time we would shoot i would get more and more emotional throughout/and at the end of the video.. but this take was to me the best one. please know that i am now in a very good state of mind, i wrote this song when i was in a very dark head space.. its like therapy for me.. if i have any issues going on in my life this is how i deal with it, by writing and turning the pain (or whatever emotion it may be) into a song…i know other people go through shit, all you need to do is find a way to deal with it… talking to someone helps, its not for everyone though. there’s lots of different options – but never keep it to yourself if you’re going through a really hard time.. talk to someone you love or write a rap about it 😉 hope you enjoy the video. and to anyone going through …

In any case, the video is so hot that YouTube took down the original – forgetting that once something’s been online, there’s no taking it back. See? Cat Daddy also managed to overshadow an ad for Skullcandy that was also uploaded yesterday. Titled Take a Supermodel to Work, the video features Upton keeping Kevin Durant and James Harden company while they train.

First up, did HBO’s runaway success Game of Thrones commit treason with one of last year’s episodes? One reddit user claims to have spotted the 43rd President’s severed head on a spike during a scene where evil king Joffrey makes his bride-to-be look at Sean Bean’s impaled head. That claim was backed up by the show’s creators themselves on DVD commentary for the episode. So what happened? Well, apparently, to keep to their budget, the show’s producers had to use whatever prop heads they could get, reiterating that the decision wasn’t political, but financial. In any case, the showrunners and HBO have issued an apology and promised to alter the offending scene in future DVD releases. What do you guys think? Did Game of Thrones cross the line? Let us know. www.hollywoodreporter.com Next up, after spending years photographing the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, acclaimed photographer and video journalist Danfung Dennis sought a better way to communicate the reality of war through video. So he teamed up with a group of engineers to create Condition One, an immersive, 360-degree, virtual reality app for the iPhone and iPad. By shooting footage through a convex lens and linking it to the iPad’s gyroscope and accelerometer, Condition One creates a unique experience for viewers who can look around the videos by swiping or moving their iPad. With major deals already in place with companies like Mercedes, The Guardian, Discovery and investor Mark Cuban, expect this type of video to soon …
