THE MUSIC BED

April 2nd, 2013

WHAT IS THE MUSIC BED
Hear that? Relevant music made synch-able by a small group of passionate creatives. Our tunes cater specifically to photographers and filmmakers looking to license music for their projects.
Being a team of filmmakers and photographers ourselves, we like to think we’ve taken the grunt-work out of the song searching and legalizing process. Heaven forbid you have fun…
We’re all about empowering you to tell your story as the visual creative and properly supporting the musicians who make our art what it is. Manners matter.
The (good, great even) music from The Music Bed is available with different license types ranging from wedding & portrait licenses, to streaming & external commercial licenses.

The guys Ogilvy in Toronto have created a bit of a stir amoungst those in the beauty/fashion world by creating a Photoshop action which was supposed to add a beautiful glow to the model’s skin but effectively removed all the Photo retouching that had been done. It was a part of the ongoing Dove campaign around natural beauty and not the Photoshopped stuff we’re so used to seeing in magazines. Check out the video here

I’ve just watch this rad video clip of a Talk by a Technologist called Ben Hamersley. What he has to say really resonates with Thato’s presentation in that he second guesses a lot about the conventions of traditional business and why we’re getting in our own way in terms of moving forward.

SPEEDGRADE IS HERE!

February 22nd, 2013


The awesome dudes at Adobe bought this product, re-built it and packaged it as part of Creative Cloud. I’t an incredibly powerful colour grading tool that is basically PhotoShop for video! What’s even better is, like Magic Bullet, it comes standar with a bunch of really rad preset “looks”. All “free” as part of Creative Cloud, it just keeps getting better! Check out video demo here
