Check out this short film, shot with a still camera…

Sunday, January 15th, 2006

Got this from digg, this entire short film was created by using the burst mode of the Canon 20D. The shots look really nice, with lots of great depth of field and exposure. Previously, I blogged about how The Corpse Bride was filmed using digital still photography, but this is the first time I think I’ve seen this particular trick, and it works really well. Worth checking out.

Incidently, a quick check at dpreview.com reveals that the Canon 20D burst mode is 5 fps until the buffer fills, then it slows to about 1.4 fps. I suspect that at smaller resolutions, much longer times at the full fps are maintained. Neat.

snowman 2006 - Google Video

One of the somewhat interesting features of Google Video is now that you can put video from Google into your webpage. Here’s a Snowman video from WGBH Boston, and below you can see the player embedded in a web posting.

Something about Wordpress insists on rewriting the contents of my post and breaks the formatting. I’ll figure it out later. If you figure it out, let let me know.
