Director Adrian Moat Discusses Pirelli Tires “Scorpion” Commercial

Director Adrian Moat sits down with SourceEcreative to discuss the “Scorpion” commercial he directed for RSA Films last year, for which I was DIT/Media Manager (and did a bit of gear rental coordination too). Working with Adrian, Camp4Collective and the rest of the crew was an amazing experience. Adrian has an excitement and lust for […]

Screening From a Blu-Ray? Skip It!

A few years ago, a local members-only golf club here in Jackson, WY started having occasional movie screenings followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers. This started because one of the members, a film producer specializing in documentaries, approached the club owners with the idea. It’s been a hit with the club’s patrons and last […]

Pre-WWDC 2013 Mac Pro Rumor Roundup

There’s been surprisingly few detailed rumors about a new Mac Pro compared to Apple’s other products. Over the past few years there’s been speculation about a Mac Mini Pro or xMac, which is basically a beefy Mac Mini with a user-replaceable GPU and not much else. I would post a link, but there’s as many descriptions […]

Creative Cloud: A Look at Pricing

Creative Cloud: A Look at Pricing

One of the things that lured me to Creative Cloud was the initial pricing: $30/mo for one year when upgrading from an existing Creative Suite product. So I jumped on it. My thought at the time, and I still think this, is that so many people will complain about the eventual $50/mo pricing, that Adobe will lower […]

Adobe Creative Cloud Pros and Cons

Adobe Creative Cloud Pros and Cons

A lot has been made recently of Adobe’s announcement that all their software will be switching to Creative Cloud subscriptions, abandoning the software-in-a-box model. Even Hitler has weighed in. I’ve been using Creative Cloud personally for over 6 months, and most of my clients have made the switch, so I thought I would throw my […]

4k Doesn’t Mean “Good” or “Better”

Links to this TV have been floating around Twitter and my email Inbox. Here’s the link to TigerDirect. $1500 for a 50″ 4k TV! A little digging also finds that this same company, Seiki, sells a 40″ 1080p TV for $320. $320! How awesome can a $320 1080p TV look? Keep that in mind before […]

Ads in Paid Content, an Unfortunate Trend

I recently purchased an iTunes season pass for Archer, one of the funniest shows currently on TV, and one of the only shows I’ll buy season passes for. I get most of my content from Netflix and Hulu, and I have no problem waiting a few months for some shows to become available. But I […]
