Fragments From Floyd

I recently read "How shooting digitally changes acting." Interesting observation. And of course, it is also photographers that who are freed from the bonds of the cost of film. This image of a hillside of fall flowers with the camera in motion is an experiment I never would have bothered with in the days when I would only have seen the image as a transparency or tiny print after days or weeks.

I have the freedom with digital film to experiment knowing ahead of time that I will delete 99 out of 100 such shots. Yes, digital is very liberating. Some would say the unbounded freedom of digital imagery cheapens art and the value of expertise if you can try a thousand times to get one right instead of producing desirable results by virtue of true gift.

Video Clips from WDBJ Uploaded

And speaking of images and actors: the video clips of my three little segments on the Monday Morning News on Channel 7 are now posted. I'd have been happier with a taped show you could extract some usable minutes from, but what you see is what you get. All three bits are here, listed in inverse order with the first part at the bottom of the list.
