Monday Moment Of Zen – Wes Anderson From Above
Did you ever notice how much Wes Anderson loves to film hands doing things from above? Apparently I didn’t until now.
Monday Moment Of Zen – Panda-Pocalypse
“Wastelander Panda Prologue - This prologue is based on a TV series we’re developing: the tale of the last remaining panda in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.” Essentially, an Australian filmmaking team put together this TV show pilot about a Panda-man walking the post-apocalyptic earth ready to kick butt and take names. I thought they did a great [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Ok Go’s Superbowl Music Stunt Drive
In honor of the Super Bowl, here is one of my favorite ads… Ok Go’s new music video made with Chevy’s help. The band even took stunt driving courses to do this. This was incredibly well-done. Good for Ok Go for always keeping their music videos fresh and creative. I can only imagine how much [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Guns / Tanks / Cars / Explosions
Everything I love crammed into a 4 minute video. Well done. This is a promo video for Norwegian world rally champion Petter Solberg. [original source]
Monday Moment of Zen – Mayor Bloomberg’s Awkward Cab Ride Around New York City
My main question is: What on earth were they thinking when they made this video? Haha there are so many things awkwardly wrong/hilarious with this… from the Mayor’s dancing, to the awkward cab driver and his facial reactions, to the excited girls at the end of the video.
Monday Moment Of Zen – Blue Light Tomfoolery
Drifting Cobra Mustang cop car chasing drifting modified Triumphs. If you like Ken Block’s drifting videos, you’ll certainly love this one. Thanks for the tip Matt!
Monday Moment Of Zen – The Price Is… Snoop Dogg
This must be seen to be believed. Snoop Dogg helps a contestant on The Price Is Right win a 1962 Lincoln Continental. This has to be one of the most incredible showcases I have ever seen in the history of the show. This reminds me of the time I got in trouble in junior high [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Goodbye 2011 (Year In Review)
2011 was… What was 2011 for you? Make 2012 great.
Monday Moment Of Zen – Important Video On Photography Marketing And Self-Promotion You Must See
Photographer Chase Jarvis interviews Ramit Sethi, author of the book “I Will Tech You To Be Rich,” on his online show. It may be nearly 90 minutes long, but I found a lot of what Ramit had to say extremely inspiring and eye-opening, even for somewhat of a photo veteran like myself. Check it out! Have [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Gratitude
I always like to start the week off with a nice inspiring piece. Here is an excellent short video from one of the Ted conferences on gratitude and being thankful. You don’t necessarily have to be religious to value what you have with every new day. Start this week of right. Make the most out [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – A Cartoon Tribute To ‘Drive’ (Slightly NSFW)
An animated homage to one of my favorite movies from 2011, “Drive.” This is pretty awesome.
Monday Moment Of Zen – Damien Walters Flies
Introducing “professional stuntman, gymnastics coach and free runner Damien Walters.” Watch his showreel above as he moves in ways I never could… jumping from/on/into moving vehicles, off of buildings, free runs, etc etc. Pretty cool showcase of his talents. Have a great week! More on Damien after the page break…
Monday Moment of Zen – Lily Can Fly
An awesome video of true dog/owner bonding. Lily loves to run full speed while chasing her owner through the bicycle stunt park. Pretty incredible how fast she can go.
Monday Moment of Zen – Keep On Lovin’ Me
Nothing I like to start my week more than with a soul-filled love song. Probably the best love song music video I have seen since Meatloaf’s “I Won’t Do That”. Check out those sweet ‘staches! Thanks to my buddy Nicholas Cambata for the video tip.
Happy Halloween! My Ghostbusters Ecto 1 Photoshoot With Behind The Scenes Video
Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday, and every year I try and do a themed photoshoot in its honor, like my zombie shoot last year. This year I headed down to southern Virginia to visit my friend that’s a movie/tv car collector along with 4 white-lighting strobes, a Roscoe fog machine, some color gels, a generator [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Throwable Panoramic Ball Camera
Incredible. Throw this ball in the air and it takes a true 360 degree panoramic image with its multiple cameras. Oh man, the things I would do with this cool ball camera! We present the Throwable Panoramic Ball Camera which captures a full spherical panorama when thrown into the air. At the peak of its [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Weng Weng Rap
I first discovered Weng Weng because of this excellent rap/action compilation posted several years ago. Who is Went Weng you ask? So I’ve been told, he is apparently the compact Filipino James Bond. Despite his small stature his character is seemingly invincible, charismatic, and cunning. I now actually own both of his films on DVD and often screen them at [...]
Monday Moment Of Zen – The Complexity Of Automotive Composites
Richard Morris created this short video to show what kind of compositing goes into a car advertising image. Intense, huh? [original source]

Monday Moment Of Zen – “Bubba Until It Hurts”

Monday Moment Of Zen – “Sgt. Slaughter: A Modern Day Renaissance Man”
Sergeant Slaughter, one of my 1980′s wresting favorites. Not only a badass, he was a true man of the arts.Enjoy! [original source]

Ah yes, I remember drivers ed being just like this. Don’t you? “A driving instructor attempts to turn a group of misfits into responsible, road-worthy individuals in this 80′s TV movie” Have a great week! And remember, you can’t let the car intimidate you. [original source]
Monday Moment Of Zen – Best DVD Commentary Ever (Slightly NSFW)
This is unbelievably epic. Arnold Schwarzenegger and director Paul Verhoeven do DVD commentary for the film [that I love] Total Recall. I’m not quite sure, but I don’t think Arnold is getting the entire point of this DVD commentary thing. He just narrates every ridiculous scene. I can’t stop laughing. How did I not know about this [...]
