A little highlight video I produced last week, filed under Shameless Self Promotion…
Greetings from Lansing, Michigan, where Big Labor activists seem to have a different idea of what qualifies as an “adult conversation.”

It’s hard to believe, but Cisco is shuttering the popular Flip line of pocket video cameras. It’s particularly bittersweet news for me, since I started my video consulting business a couple of years with nothing more than a Flip cam and a Macbook. However, I must admit that I can’t remember the last time I used my Flip, having long since moved on to a Kodak Zi8, my iPhone, a Sony handycam and Canon 60D for my video needs.
Still, it’s fitting to note the Flip’s role in political history, since it helped make early tea party rallies go viral. People around the country used Facebook and Twitter to help organize those first rallies in early 2009, then posted quick videos to show each other how many people had attended, as well as expose illogical, or sometimes even violent, interlopers. In the end, it really is amazing how much technology – and the political environment – has changed in just two short years.
The Flip is dead! Long live the Flip!

My latest video for NFIB – you should watch if for no other reason than the fact that I got milk on my ceiling while filming this one.
After a business trip to Tallahassee last week, I decided to take a couple of days to check out the nearby Panhandle beaches for the first time. As soon as I saw the view from my rental condo’s balcony 17 stories above Destin, I noticed how many different human stories were playing out right below me (and in some cases, directly at eye level.)
I immediately challenged myself to produce a video shooting just from the balcony and using only my Canon 60D DSLR camera. The video is embedded below, but it’s best viewed full screen. Now – back to work!
