UFO? What is that? (PART 1)

Wierd thing I saw in the sky. 10/10/08 Early at around 2-4AM. The first few seconds are in night vision. I tried to see what it could be with that. When its not in night vision, we see these wierd colors. But this thing was in the Eastern sky and it seemed to stay. Some of the video is shot on the tripod and most of the video is shot off the tripod. I appologize for the shakeyness, it tends to do that with digital zoom. The camera is a HI-8 camcorder. I do not know what this is, but it was sure strange.

Evil’s Bane: The Wooden Blade of Shaolin-Rioux (Part II)

During the summer of 2005, I took it upon myself to shoot an action/adventure film under certain producorial vows of chastity. Refusing to spend money, I wanted to see if I could pull off a short film using my HI-8 camcorder, a 0 laptop, pirated editing software, no crew, and my friends (and dog) as actors. A lot of this is evident in the final product, though since the overall film is entertaining, I’ve accomplished what I set out to do. It certainly honed my technical skills and prepared me for bigger projects the following year. (Don’t bother looking for the sequel. It doesn’t exist yet. Perhaps one day when I can afford a decent camera, I’ll come back and finish this opus.)

Genghis Blues (Part 4)

I do not own the copyright to this documentary film. This video is for historical and educational purposes! Genghis Blues (1999) is a documentary film directed by Roko Belic. It centers on the journey of blind American singer Paul Pena to the isolated Asian nation of Tuva due to his interest in Tuvan throat singing. It won the 1999 Sundance Film Festival Audience Award for a Documentary. It was also nominated for an Academy Award in 2000 in the Best Documentary Feature category. The documentary captures the story of blind blues musician Paul Pena. After a brush with fame and success in the 1970s, Pena’s fortunes faded as he dealt with career and health problems. While listening to shortwave radio, Pena heard a broadcast of throatsinging, the Tuvan art of manipulating overtones while singing to make higher frequencies more distinguishable, essentially making it possible to sing two notes at once. Pena, over the course of several years, taught himself to throatsing to a very impressive degree. He eventually attended a concert of throatsinging and after the concert impressed one of the throatsingers, Kongar-ool Ondar, who invited him to visit Tuva, a province of Russia, a formerly independent country and the home of throatsinging to sing in the triennial throatsinging festival held there. The entire journey is captured in the documentary, as well as the extraordinary mix of cultures and music. The Belic brothers shot the film with two Hi8 camcorders and edited it themselves
