This is stupid and retarded. Miss youse.

I haven't been on here in like forever, mainly cuz I forgot my passwords and shit. But stepping out of retirement to say Reg, you art is profoundly awesome. Also it's very weird to sleep on your couch surrounded by your arts, and getting randomly assaulted by oscar all night. It was nearly impossible to rub one out in a timely fashion.

Sammy was the among the first people I met when I moved to Montreal 6 years ago. I missed a call last night and got the message this morning, and then I just skidded out. Sam was as unique as they came because he had an intellectual spirit that could see his surroundings with a remarkable eye. He had an adventurous heart and lived more in his 27 years than most people live in a lifetime. He's an example of how to live and I was proud to call him a friend.

He was my introduction to this community, and now I feel it an appropriate time to retire from ravewave. It won't be the same without him and I'd rather not soil his beautiful memory on a site like this. So take care all of you.

Rest in Peace Sammono.

4:3 looks way shittier. I can show you how to properly compress vids for YouTube because I'm hoping you'll make more.

Still watchin it and it's totally adorable! 10,000 props to Tipsy. Less thinking and more doing. I'm going to refer the people who can't afford me directly to you, but you better charge them nicely. You deserve. From now on you best kick things into 16:9. 4:3 is whack.

Not bad at all for a video that was unshot as of a week ago! I'm guessing it was all one-takes? If it was, impressive! Great turn-around. But, Reg has got to stop half-assing his nude scenes...If you can't do full-frontal then leave the diapers on. Your junk will look 200x better pixilated out but jiggling naturally like you got nothing to hide. Ask Bink182.

I guess you didn't use those sweet HD cams after all? What cams did you end up shooting on?

And just to clarify, Bliss, you know we get along and I`ve only had positive things to say about you in the past, but this online Jekyl-Hyde thing of late seem really uncharacteristic of you from my POV. I would have no problem if people don`t like the vid or the song, but as an artist, I know you prefer getting something constructive from your critics and not such obvious personal jabs. Maybe these guys did something similar to incur your wrath that I`m unaware of, but thats likely because I post up here like once every 2 months and missed the opening salvo. And this is why I don`t come round these parts no more. Also cuz I`m getting way too old for this.

I get the feeling our threads stay up because of Bliss`s flame-fanning. It would be a fucking brilliant symbiotic viral marketing strategy if it wasn`t simply internet beefery.

Thanks for bumping this shit Bliss. I knew I could count on your sense of entitlement (or jealousy) to say something petty and bump this thread so we can keep this thing getting hits, but I was sort of hoping that you would take a higher road and surprise me, even at the expense of views. Maybe there are mitigating factors but I guess I can`t say I really know who you are, but at least you are predictable. Keep on bumping.

It's not like you're going to rape him...you COULD rape him...You're not going to rape him.

Is this seriously necessary? This isn't like the West/East coast hip hop rivalry where there are millions of dollars in record sales on the table. What's at stake here? What does this accomplish? Unless this is some kind of subversive form of marketing to generate buzz (in which case, I'm actually impressed) these scenes ain't big enough for petty beefs. Cooperate and maybe you'll build something worth fighting over. Or fight with the french hip hop scene. That's just funny.

And bangin tune mate. This is just an advertisement for the talent presented. My hats off to you guys. I had a blast.

thanks for the great support! Not sure how many hours it took but its been about 4 months from shoot to post during which I almost starved several times, moved, and had a root canal. Also working with Reg is really painful and frustrating but the guy can play to a camera, so you just deal.

Pass it around! We're not done til Apple threatens legal action!

There will NOT be a video launch at this event. Sorry for the inconvenience...

Melo's dog is totally Penelope Cruz and is a fine bitch. Are people actually seriously grieving over this? I'm seeing people I have so much respect and admiration flinging more shit than the simians at the monkey house and it makes me want to fucking puke. If you want props, my advice is to do something worth propping and quit shit-talking. If you're actually doing something worthwhile I don't think you'll find you have time for net beef. You'll also find that you won't have to sing your own praises because you'll have a choir to do it for you.

I've heard there's footage of Reg's package out there...It's like that shot of bigfoot from the 70s mixed with the events of September 11th.

Tried my best to make it there guys. But I failed you and I'm sorry. Ask Matilde...I tried to get my crew out but it was like herding cats. Glad to see it was fun! George: I owe you some drinking. Let me know when and where this can be done! xoxoxox

Wait...Reg didn't invent Merk? Just Merkle? And I got all excited when TI was dropping it in his new track with Busta. THought he mighta been checking out your YouTube smack talking... ; )

Vore harder people. Lukas is still pwning this shit. Does he use a better msg board cuz he's undoubtedly pushing his shit somehow. Maybe a forum with less flaming and more action? Is there one? I'll bet he's using facebook. Vore you bastards! ; ) Don't let Lukas the Dark Lord Master get the better of us.

Awesome. More. Deviant art is a good call. Do it.

I perceived this as more like an announcement that there is an election, and that members of this community have taken the time to enter said voting process. Of course if you wanted to vote for someone like, say, Lukas Rossi, or some other band, of course you're entited to cast your vote. But what has Lukas done for you? He's probably on some lamer board pimping out his shit the same way.

You get 3 votes per day, so it's not like it's even as valuable as a complimentary after-dinner mint to you, but it does mean a lot to some degenerates around here who make very offensive music. I'm looking at it like we're haX0ring Universal Music.

You guys are climbing up the list...Take out Lukas Rossi. He looks like a douche-fag.

@

Voring like a Whore. But just cuz you're the only band with pants around the ankles.

Thanks for the positive comments! I agree with a lot of the sentiments expressed here, and from my POV in the demonstrations, the cops did not act inappropriately in the least and were provoked into their response. I knew it was going to get more intense when I saw an older dude having a smoke in front of a Bureau en Gros get hit with a beer bottle. And that was 3 minutes into the march.

I believe it would have been much more productive for the cause if it would have been incident-free, instead of confirming the anticipated behaviour. The media coverage was not supportive in the least. Interestingly none of the major media sources cited the COPB organization in their coverage of the protest, which I thinkn is good for their legitimate cause.

I can tell flo and gamos were elsewhere that day! A police car was molotov-coktailed, at least 10 stores had windows smashed, and I have admit that I got pretty scared after I had a brick thrown at me by a protester and got hit in the back of the head by a cop. Once I realized that I wasn't on any side I stopped overtly filming and focus on not getting hurt. Also seeing one of the vandals clock a photographer with a 2x4 made me a little shy so I wasn't able to capture my best shots of the carnage, but theres always next year! : P

We could have had a much better riot if more people took the time to SHOW UP. There was even a facebook group. jk. But everyone seriously bailed.

The tune is Stupid MF by Mindless Self Indulgence!

A vid I made from a stroll in the riot on March 15th.



Enjoy!

I'm shooting L'Oreal Fashion Week in Toronto next week for Flare Magazine and Rogers and will be producing 6 segments per day for their website.

I'm looking for anyone who has music that they produced that would fit in with runway fashion shows, interviews with designers, and other such segments. House, breaks, electro and ambient tunes in the 120 - 140 bpm range are ideal.

I'm going to look into what kind of compensation ($) could be arranged for the use of your music, but I'm just the videographer and need to talk to my handlers. At the very least it could be some good high traffic professional exposure and I'd ask specific permission from you and detail the terms before using anything. I don't see why these sponsors couldn't hook up deserving producers for their efforts...

Hit me up if you're interested!

Peace

I'll bring adult diapers// XD

If you get motion sick from a hand-held cam on a big screen, why don't you just stay home and have an orange pekoe tea and watch Oprah cuz you're a pussyhole. I'm gonna go see it again, only on mescaline and sitting in the front row. Whiney bitches. Yeah you, Fred and Mark. ;)

Looks pretty easy to break though...

You should be corresponding. Not a bad idea. Lets see if he's down first.

Let me know if you'd like some video documentation of this workshop. I'd love to shoot it.

The medieval video would be like my Apocalypse Now! You're damn right it'll get posted!! In the meantime, it's going to be benders with D Viddy.

$500 to buy, but I don't think it was purchased in Canada.I'll ask dude when I see him. Rumour has it we may have recruited up to 15 new storm troopers who ordered their costumes online. If this is true we're attacking the medieval forest guys when the tam tams gets going again.

I borrowed the costume from a friend, but I think it runs something like $500. It's insane!

It's me, Destro, and Destro's roomie (is steph on ravewave?). We still have the costumes so we're thinking of what to do next. Vader blowing lines off an escort's ass? I think the possibilities are endless. I want to turn Vader into Colin Farrell.

More Vader to come...

Prometeus: The future of media.

Go for what you live to do and you'll never work another day in your life. If you have the skill, and the persistence to work on it on top of your day job, eventually it might click. And quitting your day job to do it is the sweetest thing you can possibly do. But there's no way it'll come easy. It'll make you fight tooth and nail for it.

I take the filming gigs I want to take. I edit whenever I want to edit and I work out of my apartment. I get my asking rates, and there's no shortage of punters. For the first time in my life I am my own boss and it's totally awesome. I'm nowhere near rich yet, but I'm totally fulfilled.

Google his name, JT Colfax, for more info. But check out this guys vids. Maybe there's a little nuts in every genius...

If we don't get this cat out of here by friday....it's going to chinatown. Dig?
