Samsung Video: Designing for the Galaxy Note - MultiWindow Apps

The last of the Designing for the Galaxy Note range videos was an interesting one to film. Originally Samsung Developer Platform Evangelist Extrodinaire Keith Bauwise took the reigns and we shot it in Staines while he was a bit under the weather.

Update

As you can probably guess, since December 2012 quite a bit has happened... I'm no longer based in Staines, so the title of the blog may need to change. Also, I'm not sure I am going to carry on with my business of home editing - the two projects I kicked off below - Cherry & Hosted Accountants suffered my increased workload/commute and fell by the wayside. It's hard to work for 8 or 9 hours at a day job, then come home and be energised and work again for another 3 or 4 hours... Life gets in the way like dust in your eye I guess. On the flip side I'm working in the City for the first time, which is a nice but hectic experience and we have a nice new office, despite being seated with my back to everyone (bad feng shui). Better post most recent video looking at designing Apps for the S Pen. Stay funky

Samsung Video: Creating S Pen Apps

Doing our bit from Staines, we carried on from introducing the SDK, looking at actually using some of the S Pen features to create apps. Keith decided to wear a blue shirt, despite being chroma keyed against a blue wall he was happy enough (no-one mention the blue-rinse!)

...and how do you feel now?

Cherry Sauce: Corporate Video Kick Off

Being the busy little B I am, I've also just kicked off another project with Cherry Media, working on a new corporate video for them, helping to promote their new adult (NSFW) information site Cherry Sauce.

I've compiled all the source material and am starting to lay the project out in terms of assets and flow. Its going to be a good project (I've been told "no tits" - I'm thinking classy, not sleazy) and I'm aiming to get it in before the new year. Watch this space!

Hosted Accountants: Intro Sequence Kick Off

So my good friend Ian has started up a business (Hosted Accountants) that provides cloud based services for accountancy professionals - something that sounds very sensible when you think about security and single points of failure.

I've been on at him for some time to let me create a video for him that he can stick on his website and he's just sent me some graphics and fonts! Woo hoo! Now, in my spare time of course, I can begin to put something together for him to show him what he could have as a bit of added low cost content for his website. You gotta love digital video! 

Samsung Video: Samsung Developers Title Sequence

So this video became a little more complicated when I was asked to update the corporate graphics which had changed since the last time we asked about branding materials. The Samsung Developers brand has a new funky look and feel to it, but no assets from the usual mysterious agency in Korea.

Without further ado, I got busy with some Red Bull and some Motion to make something interesting!
