Continuing the GLF Video Edit

I've been working on the GLF edit again today around Sams, I miss Glen in times like this :( I worked on a map graphic to display the various GLF schools, creating a pin-type graphic -

I also got the backing music for the video, so I'm now working on the first constructive edit (after all the faffing with footage I don't need!)

Been waiting for it to render in Premiere for the last 10 minutes, here is a quick shot!

More will be uploaded soon, but I'm making great progress!

GLF Promo Video Title is now complete!

I've been working on the title sequence for the GLF video; started in Photoshop to create the graphics (using the original GLF logo created by CleverBox as a template). I then imported the elements into After Effects to animate them, as well as adding background footage of the schools and students! Its uploading to Vimeo now so here is a screenshot from a draft render :) title

Thank you very much Sam for sending over the fonts!

I'll post a link up to the video very soon, or just keep updated on my Facebook or Twitter or LinkedIn or even my Website!

Still editing! Motion GFX actually..

I'm working on the title sequence to the GLF conference promotional video, incorporating their new logo and house style as well as colour graded cine-footage to show the schools and students! edit2

Axiom Modular Camera?!

What is this?!! A company called Axiom have been developing the idea of a modular camera system, which is 'open source', so you can include whatever functions or formats you wish.. Extreme thinking.. Maybe not! Axiom Open Module Concept Camera

Think of all the tech in the last 3 to 5 years that has dramatically changed the way we acquire footage; there was the DSLR 5Dmkii boom, then the Canon Cinema range, Sony FS700, F5, F55, Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera, pocket camera, production camera, Panasonic GH3 and I'm pretty sure I can carry on until this page is full, but the gist I'm getting at is that tech is developing faster and in more intricate and innovative ways.

Here is the graphic from their announcement:

Just as an example; if you have a 4K capable sensor (Sony CineAlta Range), then all it takes is a firmware upgrade to get amazing new features such as 4K raw recording and up to 120fps slow motion..

If you look at it that way, there sure is a possibility, and I know I'm definitely supporting this crowdfund!
