The Boulder Beautification Project Video

Check out how we managed to paint two giant boulders one solid colour. See the photos and original post here.

 I used this project to learn how to use Premiere Pro 6 and it's fucking awesome! I highly recommend ditching Final Pro 7 and moving on to the future! It was so much better already and I barely brushed the surface of it's capabilities.

The Boulder Beautification Project

The Boulder Beautification Project is Evan Sabourin's little baby. He really pushed the whole things forward. We trekked up an old block on day off and gave these boulders a make over. It's the most action they've seen in millions of years. We're talking about geological time here. I bet it's the most fun and attention they ever had aside from seeing tree planters pop a couple of trees by them a few years ago.

THE BOULDERS

The green one was especially cool because it was actually exactly the same colour as the background and was nearly impossible to see from the road. We made a giant boulder that has existed for millions of years disappear! It was also fun doing the least illegal ''street art'' ever. Middle of nowhere art.

Then everyone went and painted their own (smaller) boulder:

THE PROCESS 
 

I shot a short video of the whole process (until my made in China battery cut out) so stay tuned for that later.

Farmer Claire

I went to visit my dear friend and roommate Claire on Cortes Island where she's going to Linnaea Farm School. For everyone who is curious what Claire is up to, check it out:

Claire's garden plot.

Clarie wheel barrowing.

Claire with some seeds. I think cilantro?

Clarie with some garden greens. Out of focus, sorry.

Jaguar Mode!

A short little music video by the band Jaguar Mode (featuring Long Blonds) masterminded by Garrett Jones and Adam Gilmer that I did the filming for last week at God's Pocket. Sadly, to the dismay of their many fans, both Jaguar Mode and Long Blonds are now broken up.
