The last few months have been very busy and I’ve neglected to update my blog. Two months ago I was in Tokyo for a few weeks, then Hawaii and Now Tuesday the 8th of December I’m headed to China! So many hours spent in airports, this really isn’t my favorite location but thats just the price you pay to get to amazing places. I will be working on a documentary in China on baseball, filming the behind the sceen video and shooting the collateral stills. We will have a lot to do in the short amount of time we will be there, but I’m really excited I’m sure its going to be fun and exciting journey. I’ll do my best to update this blog more regularly so be sure to check back often!
Its not everyday that you get to meet a man of inspiration. This guy has super human ability and I’m fairly sure he’s homeless. He can balance a bottle on an uneven surface within seconds. I was amazed! Such a simple trick but so difficult. I love it!!! I gave it a shot myself to no avail, I guess I’ll leave this one to the professional!!!!!
So I’ve been horrible with this blog, I’ve resorted to short video blogs, a lazy excuse to writing but maybe more effective and fun for everyone to see where I am. This entry is about crazy foods they eat in china, but I’m not going to give away what it is. I’ve been sworn to secertcy. Have a look, and let me know if you’re up for lunch!!!!
Some of you were having problems viewing this post so I’ve posted it though youtube but the quality is a bit off now (compression bad) Technical notes: I shot this piece with just a cheap canon power-shot 7.1 meg pix pocket size still camera with a video option. The still images were made with my canon 1ds mark II with a 35mm 1.2 prime. It was my first real attempt at multi media thrown together in i move on my mac. I’m sure your going to see much more in this media from me in the future. I hope you like the piece! My hope is that someone may see the need and be inclined to have a fundraiser for the children of cambodia and help the smiling monk finish his school!
My Cambodian Monk friend Sareth sent me this letter the other-day and it was so thoughtful I thought I’d share it…
Hi brother
How long have you been?
I am fine and my family are well too. Today I just came from my homeland around 15 minute ago. And then I were writing an email sent to you. My family and students in school sent some words to you ( Hello, how are you ? Happy new year, and they wish you good journey). They miss you and they hope that will meet you sometime in the fufure. Welcome to you to participate in Khmer New Year time.
I am already told the students in order try to draw some pictures of people, flowers, animals, and other things. Hopefully they could do it well. And after that I could send them to your friends, so they will be welcome to pictures of Cambodian kids. We are very close relationship together in this world. At that time we have big family…….
Maybe now you are still in Phnom Penh and also go to visit your friends and other nices places in Cambodia. I wish you get a lot of enjoy with them.
Please, say (Hello to your mother and grandmother and I miss them. I wish one time they could come to visit Cambodia and met me and then we go to visit my homeland together. Welcome anytime…..)
