Cody Rosenthal Sunday Sequence
June 29, 2008 | Filed Under NEWS | Leave a Comment
While in Mammoth this past spring for WCI and Superpark we tagged alonged and filmed and shoot a Day in Life with Cody Rosenthal. Cody kills it on and off the snow and its pretty amazing to watch him skate. We did a special Sunday Sequence of three shots skating the Manuel pad at the volcom park in Mammoth.

Polaroid Discontinued
June 27, 2008 | Filed Under NEWS, PHOTOS | Leave a Comment
My friend told me the other day that all Polaroid cameras and film were being discontinued and the last two Polaroid film plants were shut down all due to the digital take over. Now I’m not super into taking Polaroid photos but I went ahead a bought one off ebay for like $5 with film and have been messing with it a bit. Pretty cool for an artsy fartsy type looking photo and I had forgot how cool the instant develop is. Gonna stock up on a bunch of film and put this in the growning camera collection.

Looks nice from up here but below lies Hell aka the Inland Empire. It was 115 yesterday and while I sweat my ass off here my friends are still riding Snowbird up in Utah. Go Figure.
Standard Film’s Aesthetica teaser
June 18, 2008 | Filed Under NEWS, VIDEOS | Leave a Comment
Standard just put a preview/teaser for their new movie “Aesthetica”. I always enjoy watching every movie standard makes from TB5 to Paradox. This year especially looking forward to the return of Johan and his noboarding, Ladvik’s shots will no doubt be killer and most of all I cant wait to see Lonnie’s part! Lonnie and is the man..nothing but love for him. Plus, gotta love the old Metallica, doesn’t get better than that! Nothing worse than an amazing snowboard part with some horrible music… Last year the techno/electro pussy music fad in most of the videos was horrible…. This teaser gives me some hope for this next batch of videos soundtracks..Everybody needs some more metal in their life!

This issue has some good stuff… Protec Pool party, Grenade Games spread by me and the 1st annual bikini preview with 7 pages full of hot babes wearing nothing. Since summer heat wave is in full effect, gas is almost $5 a gallon and your probably pretty lazy like me right now, you can check the issue out online HERE

Don’t work for Free
June 1, 2008 | Filed Under NEWS, VIDEOS | Leave a Comment
Lately certain companies and people feel its ok to take copyrighted and watermarked photos off the internet and use them for advertising and other things. This makes no sense to me how you can take someone photo off a website, open in photo shop, clone over the watermark and use it for your companies ad and think its completely ok. Not to mention when the photographer finds out, sends an invoice over and the company tries every way possible to get out of it paying it. First off its stealing second thats your work and you have to get paid for it.
This has happened to me 4-5 times in the past two months and its complete bullshit. I’m rather new to the whole business side of things and I know every photographer deals with this crap but I just don’t understand how people can steal your work or try and get it for free thinking its ok? Boggles my mind… This crap happens in every type of industry. Everybody wants something for nothing. Photogs fill out your copyright and metadata!
Below is a pretty good video of Harlan Ellison on the subject. Watch it.
