We always try to do some new things in our studio from time to time.
I do love seamless paper and canvas, but in my opinion nothing beats a real scene, so we did a new scene including our staircase and a nice big corner to play more with a bigger scene. Here you can see the video we shot during the two evenings the painters worked on the wall, we sped up the video a lot to make it an easier viewing experience 🙂
Now we have to find some new props to add to the scene.
Yesterday I was really stumped by what internet seems to do to people, and decided to dedicate a blog post to it and hopefully give my opinion instead of posting it in all the threads going on online on several social sites and websites alike.
For me yesterday had some great news, the magazine “light it” was released, this is an awesome magazine designed for the iPad and released by the Kelby media group, you probably know the guys, they are in my opinion always on the cutting edge of what they do and more than often bring us stuff that is ground breaking and setting the standard for the future. And ok I have to add that I’m a bit biased because I’m one of the instructors for the Kelby media group and I consider a lot of them as personal friends, that’s also why I decided to not post in the threads online but keep it focused for myself in my own blog, but feel free to share this link to others and respond on it on my blog or via the social media I share it on.
So what’s going on that really surprised me (or actually maybe it did not)……
Make sure to check out the German magazine “pictures” not only did I help with the cover but they also did an in-depth interview with me and feature some of my work, and on top of that it’s a very nice magazine with in-depth articles and very much information, highly recommended I think.
A cover is always nice but seeing it’s the first release makes it very special of course.
And the next release they will feature a great teacher and Photographer…. Scott Kelby.
A while a go I was approached by the guys from http://www.kelbytraining.com if I wanted to participate in a new project from Scott Kelby, and well if they ask you just know it’s gonna rock, so I said yes. Now today I can finally break the silence (and believe it’s been hard) because today you can download the brand new rocking “Light it” magazine from the iPad app store (more info at http://kelbytraining.com/lightit).
Always wanted to know everything about lighting in the studio, on location and much more ?
You will LOVE the magazine.
Of course I’m a bit biased because I’m one of the writers for the magazine, but even if I wasn’t THIS is the kind of magazine I want on my iPad, navigation is simple, double click on the images and they are gorgeous full screen, and there even is video content, and everything is available offline (one of my preferences for a magazine), and the content ? well let’s put it this way normally there are one or two articles in a magazine from people I adore now you will have a magazine filled with the best instructors on the planet all writing about their passion and sharing their “secrets” with you. Here you can see the video from the introduction of the magazine.
