Olive is the first full length feature film shot completely on a smart phone. A 35 mm lens adapter was fabricated to fit the smart phone in order to achieve a shallow depth of field. The film stars two time Academy Award nominated actress Gena Rowlands (the Notebook, A Woman Under the Influence, Gloria). The film simply put is about a little girl that goes into the lives of three people — an old lonely woman, a foreigner having a hard time acclimating in the United States, and an obese man — and transforms their lives without saying one word!
The financing of Olive was done independently of any corporation. The goal now is to be the first film to not only be shot on a cell phone but to also be the first independently financed feature film on 2,000+ theaters across the United States without the backing of a Major Studio.
The Film also stars John Scurti, Chris Maher, and Ruby Alexander. Other names affiliated with the project include Ben Lear, Randi Zuckerberg, and Skywalker Sound did the sound design.
So this is not my last post and not my first. this blog, column, magazine have seen many different shades of white. When I started back in 2006 i was not sure if I even where able to make it thru 1 week. But here I’am 5 years later, 1000 articles plus.
There are so many things that i’ve missed during the years but there are also so many things that i covered. So where do I want this little baby to go in the future? Frankly I don’t know. There are still a good bunch of you readers comming back every week, and there are still no new posts…
A couple of months ago Me and a friend started http://copygr.am a great service that lets you enjoy Instagram on your computer or iPad. My friend also runs the blog http://www.thecubetheory.com – and we also started http://danjan.se
So what are we doing right now? Well we are planning our move on version 2 of Copygram, it’s going to be awesome. We are also working some state of the art concepts for new online services.
Bare with me… I don’t know where we are going but I know one thing, I’ll always love design, architecture, music, videos, photography and cultural awareness.
“Marlowe” is a short film about Marlowe Boyd and his pristine Dodge Charger muscle car, which he bought new in 1971. The film was produced by ALCHEMYcreative, a San Francisco video production company.
What Is Dribbble? Dribbble is show and tell for creatives. Designers, developers and other creatives shareshots — small screenshots of the designs and applications they are working on.
How?
We got 1 Dribbble invitation. If you are a passionate graphics/web/UI/UX designer, you can earn this invitation by submitting your best shot ( 400px X 300px ) to me via mail or in the comments and I will post it on Dribbble to get some feedbacks from the pro(s). The community will decide whether you deserve a place on dribbble.
Ya, it sounds crazy to get through all this madness just to get an invitation. But the thing is, we respect what we do as a designer and we hope that dribbble only for people who have the same passion.
If you know a great designer friend, kindly let him/her know or RT about this and we really love to see some great talents to join this community.
When?!
This will be open until this Friday – 12 August 2011.
So we just launched an awesome site for the iPhone App Instagram, we call it Copygram. The service lets you download all your Instagram photos to your local hardrive and then makes it really easy for you to order analog prints. What many haven’t noticed is that Copygram also provides an view over the entire public network of Instagram, just type any username after the http://copygr.am and you can view his or hers photos, just try out mine copygr.am/linusekenstam now try your own.
In the first 6 days a total of 106.000 photos have been downloaded. And way over 28.000 pageviews. We are so happy for making this project into reality. In an attempt to give everyone a chance and glimps of the Instagram community we wanted to build a way for everyone to be able to see what users on the instagram network are doing. So now you can share your copygram link to anyone, and anyone will be able to view your photos, with our without an Instagram account. To be able to find stuff, we built a search, you can search for users and tags.
This is easily the best invention i’ve read about this year in the cluster of horsepower gadgets. Right now all I can think of is the film The 5th Element with Bruce Willis and the chunky indian style flying cars.
We have been on facebook for ever it seems like, but I never made a push for it, if you want the latest stuff directly in your feed, just “like” and thats done. Thank you for reading.
I Just found this awesome photo of a 4 cars, looks like the same model, but I can’t get the model name or brand and I need your help. So please if you know, post in the comments.
