DIY CheesyCam BodyPod $15 The Above video shows some information about how I modified a cheap Targus Monopod into a very lightweight portable DIY Camera Stabilizer for my 5D Mark II and 7D to shoot video. I used this Targus Monopod which is cheap but works well. This obviously will work for any DSLR and if you want to modify the head into one that flips into Portrait mode, i’m sure it would be a great traveling BodyPod for Photographers too. Remember, this DIY is to ‘enhance’ practicality of Monopod use while still maintaining full functionality. This is not a ‘flying’ stabilzer. Here’s the Problem::: Monopods are great and much lighter to travel with than a Tripod. My Solution::: So after a bit of thought and a problem I ran into while shooting video in a Vegas Night Club, I came up with the idea of Cutting a Monopod in half and using a Sling as the support foundation. Straps have long been a great way of support in Shooting Photos, Videos, or even in Rifles.

How to flip the classroom | Flipped Institute Flipping is easy – and with a little thought and planning, teachers can use the flipped model to create engaging learning experiences for their students. This section covers the nuts and bolts of flipping – from creating videos, to introducing the flipped concept, to practical ideas for using class time differently. What are teachers saying? As an English teacher, I have several teaching concepts going at once, so flipping works well for me. I may have kids watch a lesson at home to learn about literary devices in a book we are reading in class. The flipped classroom is about making sure that the "voice" most often heard in the classroom is that of the student, not the teacher.

CamStudio - Free Screen Recording Software The best action camera under $100. The SJ1000 budget 1080p multi-purpose waterproof action cam. Dancing Pieces of Paper in Stop-Motion Scraps of paper come to life, dancing and transforming in Steven Briand’s captivating short films. Also known as Burayan, the Paris based director uses combinations of live action and stop motion to create seamlessly flowing pieces of video art. Here we bring you two of his newest pieces, Friction and Protéigon. Friction, his graduation short film from l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, cleverly mixes blue screen live action with some very graceful Post-It Note resembling stop-motion paper… paper that covers not only the films white wall, but the dancer as well. In Burayan’s newest piece, Protéigon, a figure sits at a table, rhythmically folding and cutting paper with the slightest of hand. Via: ufunk.net Known in some circles as the most amazing man in the universe, he once saved an entire family of muskrats from a sinking, fire engulfed steamboat while recovering from two broken arms relating to a botched no-chute wingsuit landing in North Korea.

Starwars Uncut: The Full Film Now Online! Three years ago on a computer not so far away… a plan was hatched to create a completely open source version of Star Wars: A New Hope, using the members of the internet. Envisioned by Casey Pugh, that vision became Star Wars Uncut, a crowdsourced version of the cult-classic film created by fans around the internet. Casey invited them (and you) to create 15 seconds of the original movie, to be combined with other 15 second tributes into a full length internet extravaganza. The resulting film – Star Wars Uncut: Directors Cut. The incredibly mish-mashed film that resulted actually gives me hope for the internet community. See Also The Softer Side of Star Wars The film turns out to be surprisingly entertaining too, retaining its continuity while providing a heavy dose of ADD inducing changes in style and format.

Disruptive Film-Making In this TEDtalk, Swedish Guerilla Filmmaker Sebastian Lindstrom counteracts the criticism of a traditional film producer who told him, “don’t worry, when your organization grows bigger, you will be able to do things properly!” In Lindstrom’s opinion, no amount of money, equipment, or talent can surpass the final product that disruptive film-making brings about. The film-maker, who has seen the world through the lens of his HD camera, shares his experience of how immersing into a culture precipitates films that tell a more genuine story, which will ultimately have a far greater impact than traditional film-making. Lindstrom shares the following tips that his team always abides by to gain access to the best footage: 1) Never stay in hotels while on location. 2) Use public transportation to move around fast on low budgets. 3) Carry minimal equipment. 4) Get permission from the people you are working with- and avoid the tedious process of obtaining country and location licenses to film.
