Thirtieth

At the end of February I went down to the PDX with a bunch of friends to celebrate Joe's 30th birthday. Lately I've been getting into putting together short video clips of random moments since I got my 5D Mark II. The process is pretty simple. I try to film as much as I can without annoying the hell out of whoever it is I'm with. I also try to capture good amount of "b-roll" footage which I'll use letter for things like scene changes, setting mood and pacing. While we were there I felt like I was capturing a lot, but when I started editing, I found myself wishing I had a shot a lot more footage. Anyway, here's the result:

City of Roses

We drove down to Portland over Memorial Day Weekend with Joe and Tony for a some sun, food, drinks, and Grizzly Bear. Here are a few photos, with more on my flickr.


Celebrity Name Game Challenge to pass the time.



Really great PNW cuisine.




Color turned out really nice, didn't do anything special in post!


Late night snack after the Grizzly Bear show.

Next time I visit, I'm taking the train and bringing my bicycle. Everything I would ever want to visit is within a 5 mile radius and it's all flat. Everyone bicycles.
