Yesterday was a long day, so long in fact it is just ending now at 10:20am. Shot an interview and a rap video now its time to sleep before the next interview at 5:00pm. I'll set my computer up to process but I'm not sure if I'll get around to putting up yesterdays or today's footage until tomorrow. For your entertainment in the meantime, here is a still photo I took recently.
Today I started working on a project that my girlfriend, Angela, and I have been talking about for a little while. The plan is to make a book and a short documentary about Halifax barbers. We both really dig on the classic barbershop style. I will visit barbershops taking photos and shooting short interviews then Angela will employ her super fantastic graphic design skills (see here) to create the book. Today I met two extremely funny and interesting barbers, I am genuinely excited to meet more and hear their stories. The only problem so far is that they are so damn busy, it's hard to find enough time to set a light or get a mic on them in between customers. I might have to find a way to convince them to stay after hours to get less rushed interviews with better sound.
Big day tomorrow, I'm shooting two things. In the morning another interview for Operation Mongoose and then a rap video for Littles The General into the evening. Might be a long day but should be a fun one. Oh, and below is a clip from Sean Grady's "Operation Mongoose" with Jason Eisener shot on day four.
Wow, this timelapse took a long time shoot and a long time to process, but here it is. It was a valuable test and I've learned a lot about how to do it better next time. At the present moment I am also processing interview footage that I shot earlier of Dartmouth Warrior Jason Eisener. Also, I'm creating a vimeo account to show the videos in higher quality. I will provide the link to the channel as soon as it's up and running. I'm not 100% sure about what I'm shooting tomorrow but I know it will not be a timelapse. Thanks for watching.
Believe it or not, the ice has still not melted completely. It's 18 deg Celsius in the basement and it's still hanging on. I'll probably call it quits at noon.
