Update on New Year’s Resolutions

I started this year with four New Year’s photography resolutions. So, have the good intentions materialized into anything? Here’s a quick update.

Picture-a-Day: I have indeed managed so far to post a photo every day, but on a few occasions I had to use a shot taken a few days earlier. It’s a tough challenge indeed.

Video: Yes! I bought a Canon 60D a few months ago and used our latest play, A Little Princess, as a first project. In a few weeks I will post a short movie that’s a montage of stills and short video clips. Other projects are already in the planning stages. The possibilities are very exciting indeed.

What about the other two resolutions? Well, I guess the year is not even half over, so there’s still hope, right?

One resolution I should have made is to post more often on this blog. I think I will do a series of first impressions on dSLR videography. I have quite a few tips and tricks already that are well worth sharing. Stay tuned.

County Fair Photography Exhibition

I just submitted 6 photos to the 2011 San Diego County Fair’s Exhibition of Photography. This year marks the first time of initial online submissions for a 1st tier judging. Entries that make it past the first round will then be entered as matted and mounted prints to be judged in a 2nd round.

Below is a slideshow of the photos I entered. We’ll see how it goes.

The Robe: Newspaper Coverage

The Robe, which opens this weekend, got great coverage in the North County Times today with an article on father and son acting together. I provided a photo to accompany the story.

The Robe

Yes, it’s been very quiet at Recording The Light. The reason is that I have been roped (or should I say “robed”?) into another play called The Robe. Ok, I haven’t been tricked into anything, but I did end up with the major role of Demetrius when I originally had no intentions of acting in this play.

The Robe is an adaptation of the 1942 novel by Lloyd C. Douglas (skip the movie, it’s not very good). It’s a story of faith that starts with the crucifixion of Jesus and features how Jesus’ robe changes the lives of the main characters, including the Roman tribune Marcellus and his Greek slave Demetrius.

The play runs for the first two weekends in March. See the Village Church Community Theater website for details.

Yesterday, I managed to take a couple of photos of some of the few scenes I’m not in:
