Vision In Motion is an introduction to digital video for stills photographers. Written by Trevor Meier, both a professional stills photographer and film-maker, this eBook discusses the core issues of motion storytelling.
No doubt about it, video is an entirely different medium than stills photography. It’s a different language spoken with different technology and created with different processes. For digital still photographers there is often a great deal of cross-over, but without some help things can easily get lost in translation. Join Trevor as he takes you through the core issues and sets you on the right path to beginning to put your vision in motion.

LensFlare 35 is a weekly show brought to you by Dave Warner. Something a little different in this week’s episode since it is our ‘one-year-anniversary’ show! Dave interviews Lan and Vu Bui and puts ALL the content online with a little bit different approach to the images section.
The Bui Brothers are photographers and cinematographers specializing in online media and promotional photography. They both started personal videoblogs in 2005 and a web show which broadcast 205 episodes through 2007. The brothers adopted DSLR video shooting as soon as it came out and with Smashface Productions, shot the first US television commercial on the Canon 5D mark II. The brothers also shoot conceptual and promotional photography for web personalities and professionals AND they teach lighting workshops.
In this episode, the brothers talk about how to successfully get started shooting video without spending a TON of money, their approach to shooting stills and video, thoughts about story boarding, talent, visualization, tips on choosing music, lighting workshops, thoughts about how HD DSLR’s have changed their lives and much more. We created a multi-media show of their images with an explanation of each that plays, included one of their videos, the full podcast interview AND an out-take about the iPad (above), and our typical show player and download, which is below.

LensFlare 35 is a weekly show brought to you by Dave Warner. In this week’s episode, Dave interviews Fine Art & Portrait Photographer Gail Nogle. Put Gail, a camera and people together in a studio or on location and all kinds of things start to happen. She is curious about people and loves usual and unusual settings. But even more, she loves to create an image of her subjects by adding props that say who they are.
Whether staged in her Dallas photography studios, or on location to do a “Day-In-Your-Life” photo shoot, Gail captures the unique moments in the most ordinary of circumstances.
In this episode, Gail talks about her almost exclusive use of FILM, photographing children, fine art photography, how she presents her work to her customers, the most lucrative side of the business, and more. We created a special video of Gail’s images with her explanation of each that plays (above) and then the full podcast interview, which is below.
