Video Featured at The Time and Machine Gallery at Nanyang Technological University Library

A video I created about the Telex Caramate 4000 Slide Projector will be on display at the Nanyang Technological University Library in Singpore.

An excerpt of my video will be playing at 'Display 7 - Exhibit 19: Slide Projector' as a part of the Time and Machine Gallery. The Time and Machine Gallery will showcase obsolete equipment and media formats that were used at the library over the years.

Via the Nanyang Technological University Library website: "Throughout the years, NTU Library has evolved as an academic library alongside Nanyang Technological University (NTU) to meet the changing needs of its users. Take a nostalgic trip down memory lane and learn about the technological milestones that marked our journey, along with the machines and media that helped us to be at the forefront of technology for our information and knowledge services."

Special thanks to Law Xiao Xuan from the Project Team for the opportunity to share my video to help educate students of Nanyang Technological University.

Film location of The Fast and the Furious on Domenigoni Parkway

by Ray Roman in , ,

This is a video breakdown of a scene from The Fast and the Furious (2003). The scene was filmed in Hemet, CA. on Domenigoni Pkwy. In this video I breakdown the direction the cast is traveling and the differences between shots where the vehicles are driving the opposite direction. The majority of people will have no idea they’re driving on the same road in both directions in the scene but through the fast-pace editing it all achieves the directors vision for the scene despite the misdirection of the film staging. I wouldn’t call this a blooper because the scene successfully plays out without the viewer noticing. Enjoy!

Always & Forever: Larry & Vanessa

It’s been 2+ years since my dad was diagnosed with cancer. As a family we’ve experienced so many ups and downs but truly enjoy every moment we have together. This October just around the same time my dad had his leg amputation 2 years ago, we found out the results of his PET scan and there’s no recurrent malignancy. My mom wanted to celebrate this milestone by having a photoshoot of the two of them. I’m so happy to see them celebrate their love for eachother and grateful to have them in my life.

Battle Mountain | Rancho Bernardo, CA

Recently I captured Battle Mountain in Rancho Bernardo, CA. My intent was to see what the area looked like and see the cross on top of the mountain. I wasn’t originally going to create a video about Battle Mountain but upon looking into the name behind the mountain, I dived into the history behind the name and cross. Checkout the video above and enjoy!
