A great video showcasing what tilt-shift lenses can do and a couple tips on how to use them with a video DSLR

Extreme slow motion shot on the Photron SA1.1

The shot of the guy karate chopping the cinder block looks incredible painful.

And the timelapse video of the sunset.

The smell from the Canola was incredible.

I haven't done an inspiration post in a long time mostly due to lack of time to search the internet for amazing clips to feature.

This one was just so amazing that I had to make the time to feature it. So check it out, I will let the visuals speak for themselves.

Also check out some more clips shot on the amazing Phantom camera by Brain Farm

Here is my entry for the Five Second Project "Countdown"

I modeled the bombs in Cinema 4D and composited them in After Effects. The clouds are made with Particular and the lens flares of course is Optical Flares.

This was a fun project for me as I have never modeled anything in Cinema before.

Inspired by in game loading screens from Green Day: Rock Band

I did a quick shoot with a friend of mine a couple months ago and finally got around to editing the images. I used a fairly new lens that I got last summer but I had never used it for portrait photography before. The lens is a 70mm sigma f2.8 which is a macro lens but it can be used for pretty much anything.
I was really impressed because the photos turned out incredibly sharp as compared to the stock lens that the camera came with. Needless to say I didn't have to sharpen the image at all.

We had some beautiful weather this weekend and I couldn't resist getting out and shooting some timelapse videos.

They turned out better then I had expected and using a circular polarizer definitely added some nice effects to the clouds and sky.

This weekend I went down to Kingston to visit my sister, we toured this sites of Kingston and went over to Wolfe Island where I got to do 2 timelapse videos of the wind farm on the island.

Later that night we had a fire in her backyard and I did another timelapse of the sunset which turned out awesome!

It was a great weekend but I still have a lot to learn.

Here is a quick teaser for a timelapse video I will have up later this week.

Ok it's not really a teaser as the image pretty much gives the whole thing away.

Enjoy!
