Sometimes you just don’t feel very creative. Trying to find ways to keep the creative juices flowing I’ve decided to do a 100 day project. Some people do the whole 365 projects, but I’ll be honest I don’t think that I can keep up with that without resorting to terrible shots with my cell phone. So I’m going to give the 100 day project a try. My only limit is it has to be something that helps aid in my creativity. So anything really photo, video, design, editing, etc… It just has to have some thought behind it. I’ll be posting all 100 days on the blog here and keeping updated on the facebook page. Day one starts today. Day 100 is June 13 if you’re keeping track.
Sample Shots from Sony EX1 from Dion Dolva on Vimeo.
Since I’ve been laid off I’ve had the opportunity to work with a few new cameras, the Sony EX1, Canon Vixia HFS100, Canon 5D MII and soon the Nikon D300s. Here’s a small clip that I put together from a couple of shoots with the EX1. I’d love to give a review, but I’ll be honest I’m not a real “technical” guy. I know how to work a # of different cameras an I know how to make things look good.
I’ve been helping my mother-in-law out doing web and design stuff for her yarn store in Fargo, ND, Prairie Yarns. It’s a great little yarn store if you happen to be in the area. Anyway, I’ve started to create monthly desktop wallpapers for download on their site. I’m taking the photos and designing them up myself. I really like the way November turned out.
I honestly cannot remember the last time I did a little video piece for myself, just cause I felt like it.
