A Long Time Ago In A Galaxy Far, Far Away...

The latest Star Wars film has come and gone. As far as I am concerned, it was just a poor revamp of previous episodes; someone lost in the desert, an orphan with no friends, an alien bar and a resulting fight, a death star. Nothing new there then, heck, the X-wings weren't even updated!

The three components of the opening sequence: ...The three components of the opening sequence: the phrase "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....", the Star Wars logo and the opening crawl, from the beginning of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

But what if they changed the opening to be more like a Bond film? Would it lose it's cachet?

The video below is an awesome interpretation of what that may have looked like if they had done it for The Empire Strikes Back.

A Peak Behind the Photographic Curtain

How do they do it? Its just a photo after all. It can't take them too long can it? Well, apparently, yes it can.

Yosef Adest is an up and coming photographer and cinematographer - I'd go so far as to call him a very talented, high level 'visualist', but then again, that's just me.

Here is one of the most gripping and entertaining photos I have seen in a long time. And below it is the background of how he made the shot, in a 5 minute time lapse.

I'm the Greatest Star

Today its easier to get 'seen' than ever before, that has its drawbacks and its benefits.

Sadly, it means that anyone and everyone can put their videos up on YouTube, Vimeo and MetaCafe and expect Simon Cowell to come knocking at their door. On the bright side though, it also means that amazing talent can get found.

And this might just be the latest talent to hit it big time.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to share with you - Bridgitte Raven

Sully's Plane's Emergence

Remember Captain Sullenberger landing his plane in the Hudson River after a goose strike? Well here is the video of the raising of the plane.

Quite a feat of boat maneuvering, crane-work and engineering.
