  1. Apparently I tweeted something as I fell asleep last night reading my iPhone. That's kind of ridiculous. I said "Oo". No idea I'd done that.
  2. Oo
  3. love you with the flowers! ha. and what was Robin doing with you in the car there?
  4. but very nice match to your aesthetic there! good job Jim
  5. he also shoots in 30 frames per second so he can slow mo things smoothly. problem is then he can only do slow mo. real time'd look weird
  6. yeah see Jim uses all the vintaging effects to keep things dreamy, not hyper real.
  7. @rnormfoto nice! i love how you come in on "earth angel"
  8. 48fps throws your brain off. its like breaking the 4th wall where someone all of a sudden looks into the camera, its jarring distracting.
  9. and 24fps evokes a more dreamlike state of perception where your mind is more open to the fantastic situations that films often depict.
  10. problem is no one wants everything looking hyper real in their movies. they want escape. 48fps will look more like hd feed of lincoln center
  11. film is motion recorded 24 images every second and news is often recorded 30 or 60 frames/second. eye sees things closer to what news does.
  12. @rnormfoto its actually rather simple. watch a movie then watch the evening news. motion looks dreamy and surreal in film and not on news.
  13. safari 5.1 sucks. there i said it. fix it already Apple
  14. is any filmmaker out there actually surprised the hobbit footage sucked at 48fps? terrible decision. studiodaily.com/2012/04/the-ho…
  15. Yes!!!! Stupidity at 2500 Frames Per Second photographybay.com/2012/04/22/stu… via @photographybay
  16. @rnormfoto ha. Yeah we're either evolving or devolving and I'm rather afraid it's the latter.
