Saw a poster for this (Banksy’s Exit Through the Gift Shop) and was intrigued. Sorry, Sacramento hasn’t been deemed cool enough to get a showing.
If so National Geographic wants to talk to you. Their show Locked Up Abroad is looking for stories.
- Have you ever ended up in a foreign prison?
- Have you ever been kidnapped or taken hostage while traveling overseas?
- Would you like the chance to tell your story?
If so, they have a Craigslist Ad up. You might become famous.

A handgrip that helps you shoot stable video with your Iphone 3Gs. Novelty or really good idea? Unfortunately, I bought my Iphone and a month later, it was obsolete, so it will be some time before I know the joy of shooting video with an Iphone, but I vote for good idea. A good story is a good story whether you shoot it with the world’s most expensive camera or a camera phone.
The video above is for their “pro” version, Zgrip Iphone Pro. Their new ”consumer version” has a cheaper price ($69), Zgrip Iphone Jr. has many of the features of the “pro” version, minus some of the adjustability. If you pre-order before August 15, it is $59.
Wasn’t able to make it out to the Sacramento Horror Film Festival last weekend. I had planned to check out Mr Lobo’s Public Domain Content and Licensing Workshop, but I ended up watching football and drinking beer at Hanger 17 instead. It appears that I really am not dedicated enough to my craft (unless my craft is watching football and drinking beer).
Regardless, I found a review of the festival by freelance writer Juliet Farmer. Maybe it is me, but she didn’t seem too excited about the whole thing, but she does suggest a couple of films to check out. Enjoy.
