Probably one of the most powerful short films ever...

This video caught my eye a week or so back. It won Vimeo's Best Video, Best Documentary and Community Choice. It is bascially a story of a man and his dog, but is such a powerful piece of media. Quite moving, definatly worth watching, but make sure you have a tissue as it will probably bring a tear to your eye including me.

May he rest in peace and his memory be eternal.

Canon 7D

Tom playing a John Mayer cover...Microphone test. from Dominic John:-) on Vimeo.
This is a short test with a Rode microphone on top of the Canon 7D to see what the quality of the audio is like, it seems pretty good for an auto function mic. For lighting i've just used a compact Pag light with battery and some basic ceiling lighting. Shot with a Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens.

Thanks to Tom Evans for being awesome at guitar...
