I recently had the pleasure of launching a couple photographer sites using the “Profolio” system. This was a great solution for me becauase it only involves some slight customizations on my end. Also it’s nice that the sites will show up and work on an iPhone. Typically these types of portfolio sites are flash based.
The photographer can update and upload everything themselves. So if things like the “about” page are not populated or need to be updated… this is just a couple clicks away for these guys, and does not fall into my lap…

THE IDEA:
We had a regular shmegular studio meeting and decided to take a portrait of all the studio members. Well, this turned into more than a portrait as you can see.
The camera was actually triggered by an iPhone passed around the group. By tapping the shutter over wi-fi.
In the first scenes we are all standing around with the light setup from that days portrait shoot, then in the second scene, we each setup our own light. Adam Schelle [softbox camera left], Kevin Holloway [umbrella] Adam Blasberg [beauty dish center pillar] Justin Frost [camera right].
A true colab, everyone here has a photographic background and what a great time we had at this meeting!
SOFTWARE:
Lightroom
Bridge
Automator
Logic Pro
After Effects
Adobe Media Encoder
Illustrator
iPhone app to control mouse on mac
Canon EOS Utility [for the mouse to trigger the 5d]
I have to shout out Robert Rodriguez as he has been a huge inspiration in my recent filmmaking journey.

Well I finally decided to post some work that I have been doing for a Vancouver based company STORMTECH. A full scale customized muti-national deployment of Magento.
I learned Magento in and out for about 6 months straight, and well… Now our company is running smoother than ever on it. It was a large project with close to 10 000 SKU’s.
Above is the video intro page, I shot the segments on the 5d and cut them in Premiere Pro .
Above is the Canadian Landng Page.
This is the flash catalogue conversion.
Now I can build E-commerce sites to showcase the cool stuff like video, photo, awesome graphic design.. A perfect environment to be familiar with for content publishing, it generates income!
At first I found magento very difficult to get used to, but with enough time it’s possible to pull massive projects off single handedly, that would have taken a large team not too long ago..
