let me fly

it is no too long after upload freeruning video from jam in Trencin. Now I wanna show you next freerun video but shorter than a day with pk. and freerun. It was just boring Sunday and I had idea about slow motion scenes in old factory area near to my hometown. It is fantastic place to make video or take photos but were icing a little so person who is in the video had really hard conditions. But never mind I think Marek did a few really good stunts, big thanks for him. And what about camera and edit ?. I have my Canon 3 weeks, maybe more and I just can say, this is what I looked for. Good video quality, sound, slow motion, everything. If you are thinking about buying this fantastic camera, let do it. And edit ? I have a little sony vegas problem, but never mind, nothing stop me. I used magic bullet as you can see, finally I found magic bullet look for sony vegas. Enjoy this shor video and if you like it share it on facebook or just click on thumps up on youtube.

and what I do now is writing, writing, writing screenplays. In this christmas holiday I am going to start record new short movie about young people, but is problem with actors, too busy, still that same problem. You just be on line on my blong and I promise new work soon. In spring and summer will be more movies now it is more harder because of weather.

a day of parkour and freerun

first video with new camera CANON 550D is finally on air. I had problem with sony vegas, I do not know why, when I render video program breaks down. It did not this thing but now does. Never mind, mainly that I done this short video from jam in Trencin from last week. Bad news is, I wanted to shooted video with 60fps and I had set up only 24 fps for movie shoot and slow motion scenes does not look I imagined. But I hope still good. I used new coloring, just game with colors. So stop talking much and click on play and watch video. Hopefully you will have fun. Photoshop from jam you can see in "photos section (up)" or on flickr.com. It is good to shoot video with people who work with camera. Big thanks for people who were on jam. You can wait photos and maybe video from Vienna next week.

tutorial No.1

I wanted write this text yesterday when I wrote news about old camera but I was too tired to write tutorial so in this boring Sunday I am bringing first tutorial in photoshop CS4. If you are bored like me and you like photographing, editing photos so check this out. It is first tutorial by me so I try write it in details as good as I know the best. Lets start tutorial in few steps:  IT IS NOT HARD, THE EASIEST TUTORIAL for start.

For first step - open photoshop and import some photo there for editing. I use photo that I shooted in England. We go try old "retro" colors and low levels on photo as I like. (listing Blue Slide Park album by Mac Miller now)

Step two - add layer with levels. Make shadows more dark. It looks like from movie. And as you can see photo is with low contras so photo is more white little bit more. I think levels is first and main part of photos because it does a huge difference on photos. You can try it. Turn off levels and look at the photo, it is something other, right ?

 Step three - Channel mixer. Stay on red color for now. Constant make on +9 maybe more, as you wanna. Photo is more red but now blue chance on -32. Now you can see mix of two colors. Red and blue. Now we have to continue for finish.

Step four -levels again but last time. Change RGB to RED. How to make colors you can see on picture. It is more highlighted. But of course you can make another colors as you want. I prefer this.

Step five - last step. Just last repair. I add shadows around photo across filters, Distort and lens correction. There you can add shadows as you want or make "fisheye" there too. And last thing what I make is grai. It is retro style so all details are important to create it. Done. Hopefuly, you liked this tutorial and helped you. If not, let me know. Enjoy your game in photoshop.

old good times

So, today I found jewel. Something positively in boring Sunday. Okey, I just found old camera called "canomatec" as they say on the net "livin legend" I have to go to the shop and buy film to that camera because I wanna try shot a few photos with it. Dammit, first time I keep in my hands something like that. When I saw photos from camera on flickr I envied those fantastic colors. So here I added two photos of canomatec and you can wait some photos, soon. And of course CANON 550D is on the way, yeeah.
Nnow you can see just some video stuff from the net (viemo, youtoube) in fans page on facebook. Those are not my videos. I am just sharing good stuff for you because those videos can give you inspiration. Shit, I really whant new camera so much, I have a lot of screenplays and ideas to create good video but have to wait.

BOY WITH A SMILE

yesterday I was shooting new short film near to my town Dubnica. I am really glad that the weather was with us in one team again. Lets talk something little about film. I know people likes comedy or romantic movies like me, but I tried make something different. Depression of one man who wanna kill himself. He try to jump from the bridge to the river. What will happen ? Wait to film and you will see. A few photos from making of (down) and main picture of film. As you can see on picture main actor in film is Juraj Prekop (actor from Normal Human 32) I like cooperation with Juraj cause I think he is talented and know what he does. It was saw that his experience were more better than in first video. And who is that little boy ? Thats my cousin Sebastian I hope that you will like this performance (it was first recording by him) And now let me editing film

You can see some new things on blog. Weekly news where I will write some news from world of amateur movies and boring time where I will add some songs or videos or photos for inspirations. And is new design, too.

back from Prague

Last week I spent time in capital city of Czech Republic, Prague. I was there on the trip from school. Week of hard walking around the city, shooting photos and exploring old and famous place, where people from hollywood records movies like XXX or Mission Impossible. I wanted made short video from life of the streets but I had not more time to make it. I just shooted a few photos from there as you can see down. (More photos you can see on facebook fans page or flickr.com). I tried another colors as normal (some levels, channel mixer, color balance and other), and photos are more darker. And what about videos ?. Winter is coming so I have little time to make some videos. I am writing a few screenplays right now, but I do not know if I finish it to the winter or not. Winter is hard time to make videos but do not know. I will see. Of course I do it hard and if not, in winter I am going to buy new camera Canon EOS 550D so short movies I will make next year in better quality of camera. Now look at new photos from Prague and I go find inspiration to my screenplays. In next few weeks I will write here.

new stuff

 Last night I was working in photoshop. I was trying new colors, fons, What you can see down. I am going to make a few tutorials in Photoshop and in Sony Vegas for you in new section, here on blog. This two programs are amazing. You can realize your ideas on videos or photos. I am using Sony Vegas just two years, and I do not know all things in. Can say that know basic or medium things. People write me if I can say to their how to use Sony Vegas. Now I can say just, is need experience with Vegas. Practice. First look on screen when is Vegas open can looks like "I close it, I do not know nothing" But after first work you will see next steps and after another works next, next steps. If you want start editing videos in Adobe After Effects stop and listen. For first try Sony Vegas 9 or 10. And for photos ? Definitly Photosop and Adobe Lightroom. These two programs are the best for editing photos, I guess. So you waiting for.

Here, I tried one photos in a style named "TYPOGRAPHY". Photo was shooted in England, Manchester. Used colors are in retro style so lil bit more red and blue.
