  • at-at days

    Be sure to watch the making-of, if you’re curious about these kinds of effects. There’s a link at the end of the video.

  • four billion percent

    Um, this is epic. Although you may find the imagery at the end disturbing.

  • capstan table

    Prepare to have your mind blown. He has an automated version as well if you’re too lazy. I don’t think this is done by the same guy, but I like it just the same. This is what I’m talking about. This is the kind of stuff I want in my house. I know, it costs […]

  • bill viola

    The Hood Museum at Dartmouth had an installation a few years ago by a video artist named Bill Viola.  It was a ~40 inch plasma TV with a silent video playing on a loop and it showed 5 guys in primary-ish color shirts moving from one expressive pose to the next.  Except they were filmed […]

  • gravité et sonar

    Work’s been a little overwhelming lately so I’ve been trying to ignore the desire to find wonderful things online. But I did manage to rustle up these two gems that I really wanted to share. That reminds me vaguely of the ping pong track I mentioned before, done by a friend of a friend. Check […]

  • 3rd and 7th

    I found this a while back somewhere and I shared it with a few folks but I was sitting idle in front of the TV last night waiting or the Mrs. to join me and I fired up this gem to pass the time.  So I thought I would spruce up the Chron with it […]

  • keep walking, or running

    In honor and celebration of Amy’s inaugural training day, where she ironically sits on the couch in her PJs and tries to start trying not to eat more snacks, AND her new slogan to keep movin’™ – I present this super extendo commercial for Johnnie Walker staring Hamish MacHamish.  Which is oddly a series that […]

  • oktapodi

    I remember seeing a teaser for this short animated film called Oktapodi a few years ago.  You can imagine how brief a teaser to a short is.  The teaser showed two octopuses in love, and then violently separated.  It looked fantastic, I wanted to see more and I vowed to follow their progress! I promptly […]

  • intervene

    I like this guy Philip Bloom.  He’s a DP, among other things, out of England and he’s become quite popular on the DSLR video scene.  I understand he’s been doing a lot of TV and stuff for a while but I only became aware of him after I got the mk2 and started cruising forums.  […]
