Just in case you missed it, here’s the Time-Lapse Webinar I hosted for Entube Center (Ministry of Youth and Sports) about how to ‘Create your own time-lapse film today’ – Watch the full 1 hour Webinar here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eK3e6y1l6Co

DSLR cameras have significantly changed the landscape in the film industry. Cameras like the Canon 5D and 7D have been the top choices for indie filmmakers in the past couple of years. At film festivals across the world, short films, documentaries and even feature films are being shot on those cameras. What the DSLR represents in the film industry today, is an affordable solution for high end filmmaking.

Thank You!

The toy

(Updated April 25, 2014) Today my new toy – the ‘MōVI M5’ from FREEFLYSYSTEMS – arrived at my holiday location in Vienna, Austria (only 5days after the final payment was transferred). It came in a huge box, bigger than expected. Ok, it comes with the additional Controller (for dual operator mode) and DP4 HD monitor… can’t wait to open the box. Will update this blog within the next hours and share my unboxing experience, detailed info about the foam rubber measurements to find the right size for the transport case, my personal user experience comparing it to the MōVI M10 – which I have used a lot in Doha these days. I’ll also publish all details about the additional costs when importing it to Europe (customs clearance, VAT, shipping). Enjoy reading.

2013

Dear friends, colleagues & clients,

I had an amazing year 2013 – successfully produced, directed and contributed to more than 30 projects around the world – was lucky enough to work with creative & like-minded people in Doha, Barcelona, Costa Rica, Vienna, Munich, London, Dubai and Crete. Am now taking a couple of days off to recharge and meet my family back home – before I start into the new year 2014 with confirmed projects coming up first week of January.

THANK YOU ALL AND WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014!

Love
Alex
