Got some film developed...

... I recently invested in a Lomography Holga toy camera and I'm hooked. With the age of digital electronics upon us, it is so easy to fine tune every facet of everything. With a Holga they have 2 aperatures (sunny and clouy) and 4 focal lengths (1 person, 3 people, group, and mountains). You can never ever really predict what your pictures will look like before the're developed, but I must say, I am extremely happy with the way these came out. Check em' out













Went to the skatepark today...

...for five hours and practically fried my brains out. Anyways, I did more skating than taking photos but I snapped a few.

Insomnia...

... On October 13th was Apple's second annual 24 Hour Film Festival. I decided to enter it along with a few other people on my hall. We all woke up at 6AM Saturday morning to receive an email with a list of required elements we had to use in our short film. From that point on we had 24 hours to get our film written, directed, edited, scored, and uploaded. We finished around 5:40 AM October 14th. Sleep never felt so good.

Here's a few pictures from our chaotic Saturday

First Rain...

...haha wow what to say... every year at the first sign of rain in UC Santa Cruz, students strip down and run through the campus naked. I took it upon myself to document the magnificent event. I later found out that (to my surprise) this was not the "official" first rain. This upcoming friday is supposed to be the actual first rain. Please note, this montage does indeed contain both "mommy" and "daddy" body parts that we don't normally see on an everyday basis. If there are any younger audiences present, please note that this video is about a boring conversation between grownups... nothing of any real interest! Enjoy.

Dorm Room...

...tried to make this space as comfortable as possible. Many people relate the dorm rooms at Porter College to those of a prison cell. I'm fairly happy with the way things turned out.
