movies on youtube?

Say it isn’t so! Well, it is, but before you get super excited; yes, YouTube does now have some feature-length movies that you can now watch on the site. This does is nice, until you see the selection . . . It really isn’t great. But, if you are a movie junkie that can stand the Good, The Bad and the Ugly of what has been produced, I urge you to try it out.

Did I mention that there are some movies out there for you Clint Eastwood fans (for a limited time only)? Such classics as, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly and A Fistful of Dollars are out on the YouTube movies section until November 30th. All you need to do is visit the link below and please let me know what you think. I know what I will be doing this Thanksgiving break.

seven inches too long

BK Super Seven Incher Ad

BK Super Seven Incher Ad

Burger King (BK) is known for having . . . well some dumb ads. Recently BK introduced their BK Super Seven Incher with a print add that I would find a bit funny, albeit offensive too. In any light, BK has drummed up some controversy in the food and ad world, but will it be for the good or the detriment to BK and their sandwich? It has me talking about it. Personally, I think the ad will end up being forgotten, and so too the sandwich. But I will say, I would love to have been in that ad pitch and see the reactions on some faces. Priceless. Make sure to read the copy too. It sure helps in supporting the visual of the ad.

Let me know what you think.

the PEN story

Found this great viral video about the new micro four thirds Olympus PEN E-P1 DSLR on YouTube today. It was done all in stop motion style animation using the old and new PEN. Very creative and fun. What I love most is how it uses the photos as a time machine taking you back to when the original PEN camera was out (back in the black and white film days). Enjoy!

adobe updates

Today Adobe released updates to their Lightroom product (2.4) and Adobe Camera Raw (5.4). This included camera raw support for the Canon T1i (500D). This is usually a quarterly update that is made to support new hardware that has been released. Apple updated their camera raw support about two weeks ago for the same camera as well as some others. This finally means I will be able to shoot raw without worries.

Updates are available here.
