Motorbike Life - Ho Chi Minh City

2011-04-02T16:34:00.000-07:00

Cruising the streets of Ho Chi Minh City with my trusty camera...

It was astonishing to me how many motorbikes were on the road... and what people were able to fit onto them. I saw people transporting everything from tires to boxes to groceries to steel bars to sledgehammers... to entire families!! I think what amazed me even more is that I didn't see any accidents. The drivers were incredibly skilled and had incredible balance.

Hope you enjoy the little flip book I created!

Here’s some neat camera trickery: Ryan Hargrave captured some unique home video by shooting stills with his Canon 7D in burst mode rather than using the video recording mode. After some post-processing work, he ended up with this sweet video of his children that looks like it was filmed decades ago.

Art & Copy, A Documentary About Advertising and Creativity

2011-03-27T11:23:00.000-07:00

Art & Copy (trailer) is a documentary by Doug Pray about some of the creative men and women behind the most memorable ad campaigns in the history of advertising.

Directed by Doug Pray (SURFWISE, SCRATCH, HYPE!), [the documentary] reveals the work and wisdom of some of the most influential advertising creatives of our time — people who’ve profoundly impacted our culture, yet are virtually unknown outside their industry. Exploding forth from advertising’s “creative revolution” of the 1960s, these artists and writers all brought a surprisingly rebellious spirit to their work in a business more often associated with mediocrity or manipulation: George Lois, Mary Wells, Dan Wieden, Lee Clow, Hal Riney and others featured in ART & COPY were responsible for “Just Do It,” “I Love NY,” “Where’s the Beef?,” “Got Milk,” “Think Different”.
