Back in the Fall of 2006, I had the privilege of working with the great group of guys who make up Firegate Films on their latest film, Among Thieves. This film is about the war in Iraq, a global oil conspiracy, and a little known connection with a foreign financial system. Three friends stumble across a secret that will change their lives forever.
After two and a half years, Among Thieves will finally be premiering on April 21 at the Winnipeg Art Gallary. For more information on the film, trailers, and tickets, check out www.firegatefilms.com/amongthieves.
As my first non-introductory post, I will start off kind of basic with a couple of interesting video clips I found the other day. Don’t worry, things will get more interesting as I get posting more regularly.
The first is an animation which attempts to describe how the credit crisis came to be. I had a bit of background knowledge on the whole situation before seeing this video, but the video definitely makes it easier to understand for just about anyone. It also just so happens to be in one of my favorite animation styles.
The second video is just a montage of slow motion clips around New York city. I love slow motion footage and would do just about anything for a high speed camera.
