This thread's to share what you're most stoked about in the photo/film world. I know people are busy and have a lot of ideas that they want to pursue, and just haven't quite had the time yet to make it happen. Hopefully posting some things you want to film will help you to create some time to get it done.

To start things off--

- I just got back in touch with a friend that four wheels and is so sick at it. I already have a perfect song picked out and have been picturing the shots I'll get for the last day. Can't wait to start filming.

- Finally picked up a sandisk extreme pro 32gb 95mb/s SD card for my t2i and no longer have to worry about "filming has stopped automatically", makes me feel so much more confident when filming important things

- Just purchased a 3tb hard drive, so all my shits backed up!

share your giddyness

I've been to a bunch of Indian weddings before and understand the process (at least the brand of Hindi ones I went to, at least). Outside of the ceremony It's honestly not all that different for the most part. The reception pretty much turns into the same shit with slightly different traditions and such.

Holy shit dude! I saw that video a while ago on Vkmag (an awesome Dutch site) and watched it a couple times since. Great cover.
Are you still in contact with the dude? Because he probably made a ton of dough from that...

That's awesome man!
Bozeman is the shit. I lived there for half a year. I gotta say: it's about the best place you can live. As a guy from Amsterdam it was quite the transition, but I'm sure you're going to LOVE it.
If you're ever looking for some riders to shoot with I can definitely get you in touch with some of my homies there. They're really good riders.

Stoked on some essential new equipment:
- Pelican 1510
- LED lighting (1 on-board and 1 fill)
- GoPro 3 (black)

Even more stoked that all of my equipment will actually fit into one case now! Can get pictures if anyone wants.

Also pretty excited to start a month-long series of concerts this week - 7 or 8 events over the next 4 weeks!

While I'm here...

I guess I'm pretty stoked to be featured in one of 9 photos (only 2 of skiers as well) from last Friday's session at my local indoor slope. It's been awhile since I've had a decent photo of me skiing taken.

Made this for campus moviefest a few weeks ago. Pretty stoked on how it came out considering we only had 7 days to film and edit it while still in classes. If we get enough views on it, it will make it to hollywood. Check it out!
