You Know What They Say About Assumptions

1.10.2010

I sometimes assume that people see and read everything I do. Not sure why but I do it.
I wanted to spotlight an incredibly groundbreaking contest that Vincent Laforet, Canon, and the good folks at Canon have been kind enough and ingenious enough to start. I am super excited to see where this
goes. Trust me, Cristina and I are putting our heads together and hope to participate in this brilliant
contest. I really,really like how the story is kicked off for us and then it is just a matter of who's imagination
runs wildest. I encourage everyone to participate. It says either in the comment part or one Vincent's blog
that they DO NOT expect you to be able to match the last shot. They DO NOT expect that you will
have a whole crew so this will not be judged harshly from a technical standpoint it's more about the
creative/storytelling side. Also you DO NOT have to have a Canon. Even though Canon is sponsoring this
they don't care if you shoot it on a Nikon. Now there is something to be said about that. I think it speaks
volumes to what this contest is really about. Now watch the video below and get to thinking!!
