  • The Aviator Travel Jib | KickStarter

    A friend of ours, Zeke Kamm over at Nice Industries is launching a great little product, the Aviator Travel Jib… With video in dSLR cameras becoming more accessible, a lot more people are giving film making a go with their own camera. One thing that makes your films more dynamic is sweet, smooth movement, and to get that movement you need some sort of tripod / rail / dolly / jib / amazingly muscular and steady arms like superman… Until now there have been very few accessories on the market to make this job easier – when I say very few, I mean very few that you can actually afford or carry on your own! (unless you are actually superman...)

    See the KICKSTARTER for the Aviator Travel Jib Here

    Enter the Aviator Travel Jib! The whole unit packs down to 24″ long, extends up to 6 feet long (in seconds and without a degree!) and weighs in at about 3 3/4 lb… A compact, lightweight solution that will hold a camera that weighs up to 6lb. Thanks to the included fluid pan base, The Aviator works great with any photo or video tripod rated to support 17lbs or more.

    The Aviator kit comes complete with a fluid pan base, a high end padded bag, mounting hardware, bubble levels, and a ballast bag that you can fill with sand, or chocolate or…

    This is what you get with the Aviator travel Jib

     

    A little info on the Aviator from the KickStarter Page.

    What will we use the money for? We are ready to start production and your pledge will help us pay for the many molds, materials, and other manufacturing costs involved in bringing The Aviator to market.

    When will the rewards ship? We have been through several prototypes and are ready to start manufacturing. The factory is ready for us to place the order. That means if we make our funding goal The Aviator should ship by August.

    What makes The Aviator Travel Jib so great? Jibs (camera cranes) stabilize your camera while moving it through space around and above your subjects creating graceful, sweeping moves that you just can’t get any other way.

    Unlike normal jibs that are heavy, large, expensive, and a big hassle to set up, severely limiting the locations and situations where filmmakers could put them to use, The Aviator is super portable, lightweight, compact, and affordable.

    The Aviator features leg locks designed by world renowned tripod makers 3 Legged Thing. And they are supplying us with their exclusive 8 core Stealth Carbon Fiber. We’re even manufacturing The Aviator at their factory! Thanks 3LT!!!

    What skill level of shooter is this for? The Aviator is super simple to set up and use. Whether you are a seasoned pro or just a passionate beginner, you’ll get breathtaking footage within minutes.

    I hope you’ve found this little unearthing helpful!

  • Johnnie Walker ??3D Projection Mapping ??????????

    Johnnie Walker celebrated the launch of a new Green Label bottle with a first ever Johnnie Walker Green Label 3D projection event. JL Design rose to the challenge of creating the content in 4 weeks from pre-production to effect testing to the delivery of a visually stunning 5-minute film. The client had a fixed idea of how the four core flavors of the Green Label were to be presented. Our team, despite the restrictions, produced the striking CG effects. The historical building in Huashan1914, Creative Park, Taipei, became the architectural canvas for the projection of the Johnnie Walker Green Label film that saw history and technology come together in a splendid visual-audio display.

For more tech reviews and news, check us out at: www.technobuffalo.com Follow Us on Twitter www.twitter.com Like Us on Facebook: www.facebook.com The LG Thrill is on its way to AT&T. I got a chance to spend a little bit of time with the phone last month in NYC, and last week the phone made another appearance at an AT&T event where Jon was able to get a video walkthrough of the handset’s features with an LG representative. The obvious biggest draw of the Thrill is going to be its 3D capabilities. The phone is able to capture 3D pictures and video and can also display 3D content glasses-free. LG has also partnered with YouTube 3D, allowing you to upload 3D video directly from the phone to YouTube to share with friends. Here’s a quick rundown of the specs, check out the video above for a walkthrough of the phone in action and tell us what you think in the comments below!

  • Sarah Moon: A Master Speaks

    “How can one live without hope and longing?”
    -Sarah Moon

    Sara Moon and her work have always been a big inspiration for me. Her work is soulful, it’s work that obviously comes from a very deep and emotional person because it provokes the viewer in a deep and meaningful way. Her work is pure. I’m sure she has never had her work in photoshop, ever. I love that about it. It’s grainy, soft focused, blurry at times and utterly flawless. I recently found this video and 5 seconds in, I was hooked. To hear one of the great masters of fashion photography speak her mind about the art and the craft is a gift. And so I listened and learned. I replayed one section over a few times. It was so beautiful, the way she described her process of shooting fashion. It reminded me of my own process, my own desire to capture a moment, an instant where everything makes sense to me and the line between reality and delusion is blurred. I believe magic resides on that line, and magic is what I as a photographer, try to create. I want to seduce my viewers and please my audience with visual pleasure. The section I am speaking of is where she talks about how she has the model in front of her but she’s not “seeing” the shot. So she waits. The model becomes discouraged. She take a few photographs to appease the model but still, nothing. She begins to panic, telling herself she doesn’t want to be a photographer anymore ( I can’t tell you how many times I say this to myself and others. You’d be surprised, probably). But then something changes! Maybe, she says, I’m at the right place at the right time. Or maybe it’s because she starts to believe in it. But for a split second she sees a sparkle of beauty passing by and then everything goes so quickly within that stillness and she’s carried away….at last she likes what she is seeing and she can’t stop finding it and then losing it. All day long she keeps on, because it once existed.

    And that is absolutely the process for me of taking photographs. Chasing something I see that lasted a second. A moment of grace. A moment of beauty. Sometimes it can never be recaptured.Sometimes it’s gone, disappeared, never to return. But I’ll tell you what….. I’m going to die trying.

  • Where the Green River Is Really Green – Flaming Gorge to Browns Park

    After recent 4 days of paddling in Canyonlands I took a longer to return back to Colorado.

    I spent one day exploring with camera rock art in Nine Mile Canyon in northeastern Utah. Then, I took tour on Flaming Gorge Dam and drove down the Green River through Browns Park to Colorado. The Green River is really very green and clear below the dam. I hope to return back to this section of the river with a kayak or, maybe, a packraft.
