  • Movies

    Again way to many to name right now. I'll say this, Steven Spielberg is the best storyteller ever. Plot, exposition, and pacing come first for me, then cinematography, and music. in that order. I make my judgement on whether a movie is good or not by any various weighted combination of those three factors. (Eg if the plot is freaking amazing, the exposition kind of sucks, but the pacing is alright.. then.. I'll probably like it despite any shortcomings in the other two areas...)
  • Television

    Anything that's wholesome or awesome lol. Discovery, Nat Geo, History international, Hallmark (only the Walton's, Little House on the Prarie, Dr. Quinn, and the old westerns.....and M.A.S.H. lol), History, MTV U, Hey Arnold, Spongebob, Avatar (call me a loser), Martin Mystery, Justice League, The retro 90's Batman epsiodes that come on at like 2:00 in the morning, AMC, IFC, Sci Fi Channel, GPTV (or any public television), Discovery Science, Discovery Health, Animal Planet (for the specials on marine life and those on wildlife in the African Plain...CONSERVATION ROCKS MY SOCKS OFF!!! LOL. Little too intense, jk. But it does. Television Appearance

About me:

That's Magic! from Brandon McCormick on Vimeo.

..

Sofia's People: Canon 5dmk2 24p from Philip Bloom on Vimeo.

New 24p version!!

Shot over a couple of nights, taking the 5dmk2 out on the streets and getting shots of the inhabitants and visitors. No lighting, no grading. This is what came out of the camera image wise. All handheld and helped by using the Z-Finder from Zacuto to give the camera a proper viewfinder and improve stability.

All shot using one lens. A Nikon mount Zeiss ZF 50mm f1.4

Music is performed by Stacey Kent: You can't take that away from me.

Converted to 24p using Final Cut Studio. Here is the tutorial: http://philipbloom.co.uk/2009/05/30/how-to-convert-canon-5dmk2-footage-from-30p-to-24p/


Thanks to Dennis Lennie and Teodor Stoyanov.

Read my blog for more workflow and info here: http://philipbloom.co.uk/2009/05/18/sofias-people-low-light-short-on-canon-5d-mk2/comment-page-1/#comment-12203 and where to download the FULL HD H264 ORIGINAL

So... about me. Let's see. I like old music. I'm a fan of film. I have problems showing emotions. I don't really trust myself. I'm not too assertive. I'm a little insecure. I'm going to be a filmmaker someday. I believe in God. I've got three younger siblings. I've never had a room of my own. I've left college twice, but that was because of an anxiety disorder which is... for the most part under control now. I like converse and jeans that fit; G.I. caps and rasta beads. Peace is love. War is bad. Life is hard, all day every day. It would help to have "Someone to Watch Over Me" but oh well. I'm used to it. My two favorite movies are "Rudy" and "Rear Window". Sci Fi is definitely cool. Money sucks. And I'm just a broken mirror. No matter how many pieces you put back together, or how much glue you use, I'll never quite look the same. You'll have to melt me down and re pour me if you want the whole picture. Haven't found anyone to do that yet. Holding out hope though. Sincerely, Your "angry oreo [inside joke lol]" Adam R. Barnett. AKA: A-BAR.

Who I'd like to meet:

JJ Abrams, Tak Fujimoto, All my ancestors, JOHN MAYER, JOHN WILLIAMS, every member of TAPS lol, BILL COSBY, my great grandfathers and grandmothers, STEVEN SPIELBERG (sp?), Spike Lee, Morgan Freeman, RALPH WAITE anyone who thinks about life at deeper than face value, and any one who can take the time to SHARe what they have with others...

    lol, I don't want to spoil it... but no, she's not.  I hated her though... I wanted to jump through the screen and kill her myself.  I felt bad for her in some ways initially, but when they revealed the truth, my sympathy diminished... ha.
