Seeing Stars

When was the last time you looked up at the stars?

 

Drempt is so sad to have missed this documentary when it was in Miami in January. Were you able to check “The City Dark” out in a city near you?

The City Dark is a documentary “on the search for night on a planet that never sleeps.” Documentarian Ian Cheney explores the effects of light pollution on our planet in a vivid and thought-provoking way!

Stop Sabotaging Your Own Success: A Manifesto

Reblogged from When I Have Time by Sara Rosso:

If you’re new here, you should probably read my biography just to give you a better sense of who I am. In short: I do a lot of stuff. I’m curious. I love learning. I take risks. I speak my mind. I dare. The risks I take are reinforced by a belief that I owe it to myself to at least try. I’ve always seen myself as a bit of a Jack of all trades, rather than an expert in one subject, but I’ve come to believe that’s a blessing rather than a curse. Releasing myself from the aim of being an expert or being …

Great manifesto!

Before your check out the interview on this NYC via Orlando alternative soul crooner, check out the teaser Drempt created for the interview with Peter Baldwin featured on CultureClimax.com.

Lead a Visual Life

Intel is brilliantly showcasing its top-notch technology through a series of documentaries, where

“through visual experience [they] define who [they] are. And a 2ndgeneration Intel® Core™ processor, with its combination of smart performance and stunning, seamless visuals, is the perfect engine for expressing and sharing your visual life.”

The series, called “Intel Visual Life,” features various artists, photographers, and musicians, on how their talents are impacting the world and how Intel technology is a part of that.

You definitely have to check them all out, but here are two of Drempt‘s fave docs of the series, in that each are beautifully shot and edited and aspirational to attain:

Musician Michael Franti
Photographer/blogger The Sartorialist

“For me, cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.”

Live Your Life

Perhaps you’ve seen this poster before… It’s the Holstee Manifesto “This is your life” poster floating around the Internet.

Holstee is a team that

“designs and curates with the hopes that each product and its inherent story inspires others to follow their dream.”

Products include 100% recycled material t-shirts and wallets.

Drempt just discovered this film by Holstee, putting their well-known manifesto to motion. The passion of the manifesto is translated in the film through biking, a passion the Holstee team possess. Prepare to be inspired!

What’s in a name?

This well-known documentarian is not the first to do this, but if you were to pan and zoom on a still photograph in your video production, you are performing a Ken Burns effect.

This well-known director is not the first to do this either, but if you dolly out while zooming in at the same time, you are performing a Hitchcock zoom.

And, to achieve this, it is very mathematic, 20120108-105731.jpg

or in my case, trial and error.

Drempt wants to know, what’s your signature move?
