Audioboo

... and what is an audioboo, I hear you ask?

Jeremy of Wicked Days posted this minutes before birth of his (ahem) fourth. Busy man. ;-)

Listen!

Kinda worrying for the teenager to come in 16 or so years - not just embarrassing baby pics, but sharing your pre-birth heartbeats with random contacts across the interweb...

And auidoboo - it's some kind of iPhone thingy. Record, hit button, uploads to Twitter. Now, I wonder if anyone wants to hear my kitten snore?


Lee Camp's moments of clarity

Lee Camp's moments of clarity is one of those reasons I'm glad YouTube exists - not for cute kittens and that ever-so-funny moment when your mate happy-slapped some tramp - but a cheap, quick, witty, snappy and above all fast response to things going on. Why aren't there more? 

(perhaps there are - links welcome)

For example, his latest response to GOP's response to funding healthcare




Or taking the longer view:


... AND you get bluegrass - what more can you want?

THIS is what video blogging should be - quick fun, informative and cheerful. Go Lee!

Class one in any Film 101 course usually involves some kind of 'edit in camera' task. Like - forget loads of takes shot out of sequence, let's decide what we're gonna film, then film it in order, one take straight into the camera, take the film out, hit play: there's your film.

So what's the equivalent for class one on the Music Video 101 course?

If you were good. Like very good. It might end up like Nyle captured by Last Pictures. Filmed in one take, with the audio captured at the same time. The film is superb, Nyle's performance is superb, the singing and playing is superb... shame the song is a bit lame. But whatever - ENJOY:

Spoiler alert

If you have a Scientologist friend. Now is the time for that friend to watch this video. You'll curse yourself if you don't show it to them before your friendship should end.

Missed opportunities and all that. ;-)



Of course, once they watch it the friendship will certainly end! ;-)

It's posted on the youtube channel called 'church of scientology'. I'm guessing that's not the official site.

Who's flashy?

Looking through web-examples for inspiration, I came across this. I both like it and don't like it. I don't know whether I'd use a similar approach, but it might be good for photogrpahers?

What do you think?

Maybe you prefer shoes? ;-)
