Attack of the Show!

,

I completely flipped when I was asked to make an appearance on G4's "Attack of the Show"! I've been an uber fan for a while. I mean, tech, comedy, video games, pop, news, and all things digital? They practically made this show for me! It was so much fun to shoot, shout out to Kevin Pereira for being such a great host!

So surreal to see myself on the AOTS set.

 

And as a bonus, a behind the scenes interview!

Chase Jarvis

Sundance part 3...

When I met Chase at the Tweethouse at Sundance, he was introduced to me as a photographer. I don't know a whole lot about the photography world, but I did recognize him from a short film he did for the Nikon Festival:


Chase is an absolute BEAST behind the lens, an artist's artist. Take a look at his portfolio and you'll recognize a lot of his amazing commercial work, and his Songs for Eating and Drinking is a concept unto itself. He and his table guru friend Michael Hebb serve dinner and drinks for some incredibly talented musicians, where they perform songs for each other, artist to artist, just like the old days before they had audiences to play for. I can only imagine the conversations that took place. See it through Chase's eyes at www.songsforeatinganddrinking.com

By the way, his iPhone app "Best Camera" will help improve YOUR photos. And it doesn't end there www.thebestcamera.com

Do yourself a favor and spend an hour on his website and you'll be both inspired and humbled. www.chasejarvis.com This vid just gives you a taste:



 

 

The Nexus

Check out my latest collaboration with Chantal Claret! We used Google's Nexus One, and since I'm the world's worst dancer, I got my good friend Jon "Bionic" Bayani to do his thing!

In case you're wondering, yes the video on the phone is the actual video being played on the Nexus, NOT added in post-production.

You can also download the song on iTunes!

Dancers Wanted

Hello internet!

I'm looking for dancers. And by dancers, I don't necessarily mean professional. I'm working on a video right now that involves dancing; I'd do it myself except for the fact that I cannot dance to save my life. That's where you come in...

With your camera on a tripod or table, film yourself dancing for 10-15 seconds. Make sure your entire body is in frame. If you're doing something that involves only your hands, you can just film that. All styles are welcome. If you're not sure what to do, try some Michael Jackson, Beyonce or even Napoleon Dynamite moves. Feel free to use props. Remember, this isn't a contest so have fun with it!

Please send as high quality as possible, HD is preferred but not required. If you're using point and shoot style camera that records video, you can just send the entire file from the memory card. Upload the file using www.yousendit.com and send the download link to dance@mikerelm.com.

The deadline is Saturday, January 9, so get dancing! Please email dance@mikerelm.com with any questions you might have.
This video is a good example of framing, notice he set the camera on a table or tripod:

Watch Clown Alley!

It's been about a year since the official release of Clown Alley on DVD, so I thought it might be a good time to make it available for viewing online! You can watch it here in its entirety (sans DVD extras). Of course, you'll need 3D glasses to fully enjoy the action scenes (2 pairs of 3D glasses and Clown Alley poster come with each DVD). A lot of hard work went into this project, and I'm happy to have gotten overwhelmingly great response from those who have the DVD. Enjoy!
