late night procrastination…

January 20, 2009 by zharrod

Oh my… So I am somewhat the media department for AIA||Czech Republic and that has meant that I’ve slowly acquired the tools to create quality pieces for us, as well as ways to express myself creatively, and much more. During my trip back to the States, I acquired another couple of pieces to add to those tools and I’m stoked to use them. I’m currently working on conceptualizing, shooting and editing a promo for the Czech Project, but in doing so I’m trying to learn how to use these tools while I’m in the process of creating. I’m thankful for the world we now live in that allows me to find and consume information and etc. so quickly but it could also lead to hours of sitting and “learning” (let’s just call it that, it makes me feel better, but in reality it’s procrastinating a little, I guess!). In that I stumbled upon the videos of a guy, named Ugurcan Kara, on vimeo and I love what he is doing! He is using something called the “Magic Bullet Look,” which I’m trying to figure out how to join in this look, but do it under a budget. Anyway, I wanted to share two of his videos that have served as inspiration and procrastination at the same time for me! I really want to do some projects like these, just beautiful work! Enjoy!

i need your help…

December 11, 2008 by zharrod


Alright, I really need your help! So please, please use the response feature on my blog after you read this and let me know what you think and help me out with some ideas! So I’ve told you before about the Czech Project and us having it here this summer, and we are thinking through curriculum, recruiting, and etc. One of the things on my plate is a 30 second video spot that we will use on youtube, facebook and the web to get people thinking and praying about it. So here is where I need your help, I don’t know what to wrap the video around, themes, how to get people excited and etc. Will you help me? Here are some questions:

  1. What themes related to an international summer missions trip would get you to consider coming?
  2. What makes your heart beat?
  3. What images, sounds, sights would get you thinking and praying about it?
  4. Flat out, do you have any ideas for me?

Remember it’s only a 30 second piece, but my [our] hope is that it will be something that grabs people and can be a good ‘get to the site and start praying about spending a month here’ type of video. Thanks in advance for your help! I’ll be shooting it and editing it after Christmas. Be a Revolution!

A SHORT LOVE STORY IN STOP MOTION from Carlos Lascano on Vimeo

Oh my…. This is unreal! Thanks for posting this on facebook Christy! What is even cooler is you can head over to A Short Love Story in Stop Motion to see pics and read notes about how it was made. I watched it several times. Yes because I’m a hopeless romantic at heart, but also because it is so beautifully creative! It makes me want to go and create! Ah… The tension. I love what I do, but I wish I could dig into something this beautiful. We shall see. I hope you enjoy it as well! I want to watch it again, but I have to do my homework for Czech class. Tak, na shledanou…
