The Pavement
Great storytelling through repetitive narrative that unravels the story of the death of a man. The pavement is also one of the Top 10 finalists of HBO’s Project Greenlight competition.

The city at night, a couple alone. A scream from the woman, the smoke of the gun… THE PAVEMENT is a short film directed by Taylor Engel which landed him in the top 10 of HBO's Project Greenlight competition.

Gotye’s hit and parody
I bet many of you have seen the Somebody That I Used To Know cover by Walk of the Earth. I was thinking of listening to it again recently and search for it on Youtube. I didn’t realise there were a few nice parodies of the song.

Apple Podcast & my first Podcast image
Today Apple launched a new app for listening to Podcast. With this app, you can more easily discover, subscribe to and play your favourite podcasts. As with all Apple apps, they have put in some nice touches like the radio like fail to browse, the tape deck when playing, and features like slow or fast way of listening, sleep timer, streaming… I love listening to podcast, more than listening to music. With podcast, I find I am able to more easily catch up with the latest happening, or learn something new. Go and grab it now and start loading up your list.
While browsing the podcast list, I remembered a graphic I did for Dan Miller of 48 Days.com. He has a podcast, “48 Days To The Work You Love” and he had this blurry, poorly done podcast album cover. I felt the image did a disservice to his branding and did up a new one for him, Glad to see that he is still using it.

Review: OlloClip
They say the best camera is the one you carry with you. Most of the time, that’s my iPhone. But when if there is an accessory that make the iPhone camera even better.. something that is compact, easy to carry… something that makes photography more fun, capturing a lot more of your scene, a lot closer… that accessory? OlloClip
Olloclip is a quick-connect lens for the iPhone 4 and 4S. With just one package, you get a fisheye, wide-angle and macro lens.
Here’s a sample comparison of the original iPhone lens, wide-angle and fisheye.
As you can see, the fisheye captures a lot more without the need to step back. The best part is the macro lens. A quick twist of the wide-angle lens, reveals my favourite lens. To give you an idea, here’s a small spider around 1 cm or the little pinky nail on your hand. It’s that awesome.
This is a video I found that blew me away.
All you need is a bit of patience to get close enough to have the subject in focus.
There is however a minus, that is it only clips well with a “naked” phone. That’s right, no case. If your screen protector is too thick, you may have trouble putting the lens on. I still have my screen protector on, just that it’s a bit bent at the corner.
So, if there is just one accessory you must get, I highly recommend the OlloClip.
