It’s about time I start putting this Canon 7D to use. Below is a short film I made, shot on location at Disneyland. The filter effect I used is called bokeh. By cutting a shape into a lens cap and affixing it to the end of the camera, you can create amazing effect in the out-of-focus areas of the image. The footage was shot at 24fps using a 50mm prime lens at f/1.8.
I hope you like it…

Many things come and go in our lives that we look fondly upon as we develop an understanding for the inevitability that they will be gone forever. It’s a finality that we ultimately come to embrace as we look back with nostalgia and wonder what it would be like to get back that which we have lost.
Life is not without it’s exceptions, though. Once in a while, we are awarded a chance to see and relive moments of the past. Disneyland has awarded us with such a chance; the return of Captain EO.
Make it a priority to revisit this classic from the 80′s. This rare opportunity wont last forever!
The “Rivers of America” at Disneyland are mostly empty, leaving the Mark Twain and the Columbia Tall Ship dry docked.
It seems as though Disneyland as made it their personal responsibility to usher in the holiday season by having the first Christmas Tree up and lit in Southern California.
Is it unreasonable to request your own Star Speeder 3000 on a crowded Saturday night at Disneyland? Apparently, it’s not!
I saw a commercial for this about two years ago and thought it looked pretty cool. Today I saw one installed in a bathroom at Disneyland. In true Dyson fashion, it actually works quite well.
If you’ve seen the Disney/Pixar film “Cars”, you’re undoubtedly familiar with the character, Tow Mater. Tonight at Disneyland, he was parked in the Chip and Dale parking lot!
This weekend the Mariachi Divas performed at Tortilla Joe’s in Downtown Disney. If you haven’t heard of them, you should check out their site… http://www.mariachidivas.com
They won a Gramy for cryin’ out loud!
While I am a big fan of Steve Martin and his presentation of “Disneyland – The First 50 Magical Years”, I’m thrilled to see the return of Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln at the Main Street Opera House. The historical and educational value coupled with Disney nostalgia make this one of my favorite attractions in the park.
I’ve seen the signs, but have never seen the actual show. The Jedi Academy is perhaps one of the most entertaining live performances in Disneyland. The show enlists the help of several kids in the audience to engage in a light-saber battle with Darth Vader himself! The equally menacing Sith lord, Darth Maul, makes an appearance as well. I’m quite familiar with his role in Episode One and even I struggled to identify if the stage performer was the actually the real Darth Maul. His technique was flawless!
