ckck:
This is a Beaulieu 4008 ZM 8mm film camera. I just saw someone selling one of these at an online auction, and I’m tempted to bid on it because how is this not the coolest film camera you’ve ever seen? Even if I’d never be able to shoot any 8mm film, it’s got to be handy to own it in case of alien invasion. You just know there’s gotta be a ray-gun setting on there somewhere.

Diesel - The Dual
Epic battle between flame man and ice man with a random old guy watching all the action.
Promo made for the band Dancing Pigeons, that Diesel supports through Diesel U:Music. The film is based on Diesel’s theme for their new collection - Fire & Water. Created by Tomas Mankovsky.
“Inception” Sound for Film
This 6 minute profile of the sound production for the movie Inception is beyond fascinating. It’s easy to watch a movie and appreciate the visual production, but the rich sound that makes any movie is easily overlooked. The techniques used for capturing and layering audio for full impact of gun shots and dream-state explosions are incredible.
If you enjoyed this sound profile check out SoundWorks Collection similar profiles for SALT, Toy Story 3, Watchmen, Avatar, Where the Wild Things Are, and many others.
I have yet to see Inception, but it seems like this profile does not contain any spoilers—mostly clips I’ve already seen in the trailer.
35mm
35 films in two minutes: a clever, minimalist motion graphics piece animated by Felix Meyer and Pascal Monaco. How many can you spot?

MOMENTOS
Storytelling at it’s finest. It’s amazing how much emotion you can pack into a short film without dialog.

Newcastle Brown Ale
Interactive agency Struck/Axiom with offices in Salt Lake City, UT and Portland, OR recently relaunched the brand focused site for Newcastle Brown Ale (with the help of agencies Vitro Robertson and TWC). Their new approach uses almost nothing but beautifully shot video scenes and minimal text overlays. Impressive work!
Longboarding at Goat Hill
Brian Freeborn and Mammoth Media took advantage of the first nice day of the year to longboard down Goat Hill capturing it all on their Nikon D90. The color grading and track fit the video perfectly.

Bank Run - Interactive Action Movie
Remember the Choose Your Own Adventure books as a kid? Bank Run is like combining one of those book, with the production quality of an action movie, and an interactive game. Interactive shop SilkTricky run by Chris Lund recently launched this site along with part II that’s playable as an iPhone game.
Go ahead. Kill some time on this site. It’s worth it.
Pedigree: Catch
Using a Phantom camera to capture the action at 1,000 fps, director Bob Purman films dogs jumping to catch Pedigree dog food. The best part is watching the expressions on the dog’s face as they first see the food flying through the air.

The Ostrich
A short, dark handmade film by Lucas Zanotto and excellent sound design by David Kamp.
Look At Me
Shot entirely with the Canon 7D over three days, Patrick Lawler put together an interesting and beautiful film. I love all of the close-up shots of the eyes using the Canon 100mm macro f/2.8 lens. Hopefully Canon release the firmware update soon to allow for 60fps on the 5D Mark II as well.
