Hand-Drawn Maps Of King’s Cross – London

5th March 2010

The guys from Londonist had a very good idea, they ask their readers to draw a map of their local area in order to revive homemade maps.

Google Maps are all very well for presenting information. But where’s the charm? Where’s the love? Reminded earlier this week about the special allure of hand-drawn charts, we thought it’d be fun to revive the idea of homemade cartography.

I’ve found it very interesting, so I’ve done my best with my local area: King’s Cross

LOL!

Christianism: “…Fags, people who use condoms and those who don’t believe in God are going to hell.”

Judaism: “…you have to bump your head against the wall, cut your son’s foreskin and keep it in a box…”

Islamism: “Mohammed is fucking great, Allah is fucking big, if anyone thinks otherwise, you have covert or kill him…”

Atheism: “…you are only allowed to believe in things that are supported by scientific proof…”

Satanism: “By selling your soul to the devil you will be able to play blues, own Microsoft, or whatever…”

Guess which one I installed…

Wo(Man) – Poker Face

3rd March 2010

Poker Face – a face on a person that shows no emotion, often called poker face because in the game of poker it would be foolish to show any emotional traits that might screw the game for you.

This exactly wasn’t exactly the definition of my face when watched this video as I was almost as surprised as with “two girls one DAVIS cup”, so I guess the editor could choose a better song but it’s alright, gave me a reason to write this post.

Enjoy!

Video Editing

1st March 2010

Hi guys,
For the last 6 weeks, Alvaro and myself have been doing every Saturday morning a 3 hour class of Video Editing with Adobe Premiere. I’m quite happy with the results as I’ve learnt how to edit video and sound more than enough for what I wanted and I hadn’t got to expend lots of money in the course (the cost of this kind of courses in London are completely insane).
I edited this one below in the last class, nothing special but I kind of like the result of the exercise as we didn’t have much time to do it.

If you want to see how we improved and watch the first video we did, check this post, you will see also how with the same clips and sounds, Alvaro and me got completely different results, interesting, isn’t it?
