Living in Whistler

Been living in Whistler, Canada for nearly a month now, working as a Ski Concierge and loving life. Will post some updates on videos soon but in the meantime here is a film from one of my friends which is very good and has spurred me to start creating my new series of ski films in Whistler. Watch this space.

Absolutely love this song and the video right now. The blend of live action and compositing/3D animation is breathtaking. Starting production of Sirens on Monday so I’m a bit nervous.

Saas Fee from Jamie Harris on Vimeo.

A short film showcasing some of the highlights from my last winter season (2011/12) in Saas Fee, Switzerland.

Big thanks to Tom Denman and James Edwards for their footage & Dean Arnold for the soundtrack.

All editing & colour correction done in Adobe Premiere Pro, animations created in After Effects.

This is just a fun short and isn’t for any commercial purposes or profit of any kind. Do not try and re-create anything you see in this film, alot of it is either stupid, dangerous or both. Shot entirely on a GoPro HD Hero.

Really into these GIFs lately, may have a go soon. It’s like a contact sheet come alive :)

I really like the silhouette effect on this one, another from my trip to Coney Island in May. Might use it for a vector illustration sometime soon.

Finally got round to developing my films from my trip to New York. I didn’t really have a central theme though I was playing with scale and size quite alot, the rest are just trashy tourist snaps :) This is one of my favourites, will put some more up soon.
P.S. These were shot on either an Olympus OM1 or a Trip35. The stock was Ilford Super XP2.

Got my letter of introduction today which will let me into Canada to work for a year! Excited doesn’t even cover it, hoping to hit up Banff for the winter then after that who knows! I can’t wait to get back on my board. Hopefully flying out sometime in December.

Intern-land

I have recently started an internship for a short time as part of a small production team for a web based recruitment company. It’s all very exciting as they have only just started out which means there’s alot of room for development and I get a bit more creative license than a more established company. Hopefully will get a bit of experience, good for the C.V. and all that. I’m starting work on a project which aims to create a statistics driven film aimed at establishing the background for a certain company. I posted an example before this post, so see below. This is being run from the ground up so I have alot of R&D to do over the next few days. That and I am still working on my other side projects. Well at least I won’t get bored. 

Oh and I got myself a new mp3 player as my ancient 1GB stick finally died. It’s an iPod nano and it has some fancy Nike thing on it that records my running. Tells me how far, how fast and how futile my excersise regime is. 450kcal for 4 miles?? Thats half a sandwich. 

Starting work on a new project, similar to this video for Maximus IT.
