Freeskiing: “Being There” CLIP
BEING THERE – FIELD PRODUCTIONS from Field Productions on Vimeo.
While I’m sweating it out everyday in Hong Kong, it’s snow time in the southern hemisphere! I’m hoping to get to Queenstown, New Zealand sometime in August for a heli-board if I can get away from work for week. I came across this clip for ‘Being There’ and even though I snowboard. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a ski or board video as long as there’s a good soundtrack over the top. It get’s me pumped! This is for all my snow pals in Australia and New Zealand.
“With some of the best skiers within all aspects of modern freeskiing, and a passionate film crew equipped with the best of HD cameras, this movie will both thrill and amaze you. Along side amazing action shots and mind blowing scenery, this movie will give you a behind the scenes look at the production itself.”

THE ART OF CHALK LETTERING





Dana Tanamachi is a graphic designer and custom chalk letterer living in Brooklyn, New York. You must give her props for using no reference and all freehand. It’s already got me thinking what project I could use her for.
‘Paranormal Activity 3’ Trailer
I was surprised when I saw they’re was going to be a third follow up to the footage-style Paranormal Activity movies. This time we return to the year 1988 when Katie and Krista are children to reveal the reason behind the demonic force that was tormenting them. You see the two girls chanting Bloody Mary which might be a clue. I love a good scary movie and I’ll admit the first one made me sh#t my pants, but I’m not holding my breath on this.

An Eternal Soul Trailer (Nujabes Documentary) from Abe Spiegel on Vimeo.
Here’s a preview trailer of an upcoming film which documents the late great Japanese producer known as Nujabes. I first heard about him when animation Samurai Champloo came out.

Join the official facebook page to find out when it drops. I will post some of his tracks in the next few days.
