Black Swan is the Ugly Duckling

"Oooooh I'm so edgy, I'm so creepy and sexual and different. Not. I'm actually just re-telling Girl-Interupted with feathers and leotards. I'll even cast Winona Ryder."

What is the point of creative cinemetography and beautiful special effects, when at the end of the movie I still want my 2 hours back?

Darren Aronofsky, nice try, but next time don't be the world's biggest cop-out.

Sorry Portman, this time it's not your fault. I just expected your director to not fall asleep at the reel when it was time to deliver an ending that met the expectations of all the over-zealous foreshadowing. Either that or AT LEAST not make the simple premis SO OBVIOUS and make us expect the unexpected, just to have it RIPPED out from under our feet with the incredibly anticlimatic truth that, no, there was actually no more story to tell.

MY BABY TO BE

I thought it was a great camera. And then I researched even more and discovered it's a GODLIKE camera. It is worthy of my worship.

I love Ken Rockwell. He was reviews on EVERYTHING and pretty much answers all my questions. This is his HUGE indepth review on the D7000.

The D7000 has a max ISO of 25,600. 25,600. I can't friggen believe it. And the grain is almost non-esistent. No one even needs an ISO that high. This is a picture taken under MOONLIGHT on the d7000 with an ISO of 6,400. HANDHELD. HAND-FREAKING-HELD. Goodbye tripods.

See that dot in the top left? THATS A PLANET. A FREAKING PLANET.

I am also torn. I kinda want to get a new lens. Either the 16-85mm, which would be beautiful for instant wide to portrait zoom transitions. Or the 18-200mm, which is the same idea, but with way more telephoto then what I would likely need for a portrait shoot. I'm not sure would be best to shoot video with. Probably the 18-200mm.

This is a video of the a guy named Chase Jarvis who was hired to make a short film for Nikon before the D7000 was released. A 'roadtest' if you will. It's pretty wild.

My family got me a gift card for Kerrisdale Cameras for Christmas, who are selling this puppy without a lense for 1,200. They paid 85 % of it. I can't freakin believe it. I literally cried when I opened the gift. I am so. stoaked.

A Very Potter Musical

I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO DO THIS MUSICAL WITH MY FRIENDS. HOLY CRAP I WISH I COULD BE UNEMPLYED AND DO NOTHING BUT MUSICAL THEATRE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

Long live Harry Potter.

I miss musical theatre. I will do nothing but watch this all day now. lol.

Don't pretend to be surprised I'm a nerd. Someone who likes computers, film, reading and musical theatre? Come on, I was born this way. I thought it was just a faze....

Don't feel sorry for me. Nerds have WAY more fun. I mean way.

Love love

Up Coming Photoshoot...

Kisha was BEGGING me for a teaser, so here it is...

I only just started editing them, but they shouldn't take long. They aren't that many and the editing should be nice and simple :)

Ciao for now!
