Lol jan you read to much into everything. Obvoiusly people thought I was hand holding the camera. And obviously matte and vacuum plat3s existed long befor shimi seiko and quantel or even imaginator. You need to relax. I take this stuff a lot less serious then you seem too. Im not the person who decided to randomly through my name into a critique for whatever reason. I didnt even read you email past line one because you are off base at line one. So while my resume is diverse and very strong in the digital world. (Thank you RIT) NOTHING I DO is new it was a matter of converting analog science from the past 400 years into digital. What I find troubling is the arogance of the hobbiest who dont know history or the real technoligy that has existed foe a very long time. Like you image at eastman house. So relax jan. I would not presume to think Im using anything at all new. The problem is those that dont realize that the stuff exist. People that dont know what potasium ferocyanide is. They assume the know everything. I assume I know what I know only after learning it from those that came before me. I then do my best to exrapolate new ideas and concepts. Thats how we all move forward we learn from those that have gone before us. LIKE YOU. AND I teach those that I now hire and work with while still looking to my mentors in the stills and film world as they will always have more kniwlegde then I.
You act like you invented almost everything to do with cameras. I was using a window mount before you were out of short pants, and I mean literally. What were you using 45 years ago? A potty?How do you think I shot pictures for the two years in which I only had one foot and could not use a prosthesis? I of course hooked up my Noblex, Horseman, and X-Pan to my Volvo tripod and parked it all kinds of inconvenient places including the National Mall, Civil War battlefields, an Army Fort, a couple of airport runways, and so forth. When I needed to, I shot blind and guessed what the lens was seeing.You are not the only guy out there with ideas. It is probably a small club, but you are not the chapter president. You may be one of the publicists, but not the inventor. We adapt when we have to. This is what Andy has done and probably why nobody can replace him.The below is supposed to be tongue in cheek or for the right sense of humor, actually funny. I know, you never thought of laughing, did you? You do know that to be a great shooter you have to invent odd things nobody else has ever seen or thought of, don’t you?Jan FaulChief Cook & Bottle-washer+ Master Artist ART4CARZOn May 19, 2013, at 12:15 PM, Randy Little wrote:On Sat, May 18, 2013 at 6:39 PM, Jan Faul <jan@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Well, I did try to get this wrapped around a telephone pole, but CS6 couldn’t do it. Since it is still difficult to drive and shoot from a tripod at the same time, Randy is obviously a better technician and can make CS6 jump through hoops. Getting the tripod out the window whilst behind the wheel was pretty edgy.
Will its called a window mount. and I would hope being a photographer and Visual effects supervisor on Feature films that I can make things do exactly what I need them to do with either the computer of optically.
