Kite Aerial Photography #3 – Christmas Success
What better day than Christmas Day to have a third attempt at some kite aerial photography? My first couple of attempts were disappointing to say the least. I’ve found it tricky to find both a location and enough wind to get the kite up supporting the camera, but not too much wind to cause me…

Video Snippet
While a massive storm rolls across the country, I spent the day editing video. Here’s another snippet of something that’s coming soon. Have you ever seen a murmation of starlings? Well here’s what happens when they gather on a water tower. Starlings on Water Tower near Blythburgh from Adam Bowie on Vimeo.

Muvi X-Lapse Timelapse Experiements
Yesterday I got hold of a cheap Muvi X-Lapse. It’s basically a device that you can mount on a tripod, and then on top of it you can either place a small(ish) camera or a mobile phone. Then with some kind of intervalmeter software either on your camera or your phone, you can shoot rotating…

Woods
Woods from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. Shot as an excuse to try that tracking feature you can do in After Effects. Music chosen because I saw Philip Glass play later that evening. The tracking was done with a Mobislyder, and the video on a Sony RX100. If there’s one thing I’m coming to realise about…

Licencing Music
Of late, I’ve been shooting a few Super 8 films, and have really enjoyed the somewhat back to basics pleasures. I’ve still got plenty to learn about the medium however. But I am left with a problem. Because of the silent nature, the films work much better if I put a soundtrack on them. And…

Holiday Video
While I was on holiday recently, I made a short film… It’s a Super 8 film shot on the island of Syros. The camera is a Canon 318M, and the music is from the film Le Mépris and is composed by Georges Delerue. The camera’s filter was misbehaving so I’ve colour corrected a bit. The…

London to Brighton 2010
I’ve got a few videos saved up that I’ve not edited or posted. So I thought I’d work through the backlog! This was taken last August (so it’s been a while) when a few of us cycled from London to Brighton as part of a vaguely radio-themed outing. As you might be able to tell…

A Video
This is a short video I made a few weeks ago at the seaside in Broadstairs. Featured are my brother and his family, so you may well not be interested. But it’s shot on Super 8 – Kodak Ektachrome 100D to be precise – and filmed with the same Canon Auto Zoom 318M that my…

Timelapses
When it became clear that it was going to snow fairly heavily near my flat last night, I thought it might be fun to put some timelapse videos together. Indeed, that might be a good idea, but I’m not convinced that I managed the best implementation ever. This first video is the worst. It’s the…

Bladerunner
I’m really looking forward to Bladerunner: The Final Cut, essentially a big DVD boxset that’ll be the final version of Bladerunner, a classic SF film that’s definitely up amongst my favourites, but which has a troubled version history. But it’s a little disingenuous, for Ridley Scott to claim to claim that he has an aversion…
