it's leica love affair

I am over the moon about this camera generously bestowed upon me by 2 dear friends. My dream camera. My "hangs on my neck all the time" camera. My always ready just in case something lovely happens camera. My "take a picture even if something lovely doesn't happen" camera that makes the most beautiful little click sound. My "can make even commonplace things so exquisite", camera.

so we started a business

Ithyle and I are going to be shooting a lot more together. It's fine by me, I like the guy.

Feedback is Fun

Today I saw this on a blog. There were images of our Lost Things stop motion piece. I did a "auto translate" and i LOVE what it said.
I love it when people iron my work several times in succession.
People are lovely. I believe it.

Je viens de tomber sur ce très joli film en stop motion réalisé par la photographe Angela Kohler (allez voir, sur son site, son carnet de notes new yorkais est ravissant). Je n’ai pas grand chose de plus à dire sur ce film si ce n’est : vite, vite, regardez ça comme c’est joli! Je l’ai bien repassé trois ou quatre fois de suite avant de me décider à vous faire partager ce petit bijou, histoire qu’on s’exclame tous en chœur :)

(on est bien d’accord, c’est très Alice in Wonderland, tout ça?)

La voix, derrière les images, est de “A fine Frenzy“, si vous allez sur leur site, plein de morceaux sont en écoute et certains sont pas mal du tout. Voilà, c’est tout pour aujourd’hui, je retourne travailler. Belle après midi sous le soleil!

Et surtout, merci Fanny, pour cette si jolie découverte (comme toujours, sur ton blog)



which translated to this:

I have just fallen on this very pretty film in stop motion accomplished by photographer Angela Kohler (be going to see, on his site, his report card new yorkais is delightful). I do not have thing big furthermore to be said on this film if it is not: quickly, quickly, look this how it is pretty! I ironed well it three or four times in succession before deciding on me to make you share this small jewel, history that they cry all together:) (they agree, it is very Alice in Wonderland, all this?) The voice, behind pictures, belongs of " To fine Frenzy ", if you go on their site, full of pieces some people are in listening and are quite a lot of whole. Here it is everything for today, I turn work. Nice after midday under the sun! And especially, thank you Fanny, for this so pretty discovery (as always, on your blog)

If You Wear A Tutu In The Ring, You Better Win The Fight

Mel's fight was yesterday. I always get jellolegs when my kid sister takes hits to the face, but she seems to give more than she gets, and it's fun just to see what she comes out wearing. This time a black tutu. Such a little thing, in those big glove. She won her fight, which was nice, and didn't get bruised about the face, which was even nicer..

Here is the Podcast for an interview we did with Jack Howard at Adorama – TechTock in regards to the Amazon.com Kindle stop-motion commercial. You think I talk fast normally? Well, believe it or not, I talk faster when I am nervous.
