So I thought it would be a good idea to do a video about in-app advertising and in-app purchasing, as these offer viable long tail realistic revenue streams (if done well, with quality content).
Trouble was, we needed an example app... This time round, in honor of friend/intern we worked with some time ago, we dreamt one up called "KatManDoo". I created the app simulation in Flash (not as hard as I expected), then exported the finished simulation as a movie file. This was then dropped into a blank Samsung Wave Phone picture frame and left to play out/be edited/stretched etc to fit the audio.
I created the title sequence by mocking up some dramatic still images from the fictional app, Photoshopping a layer on them and importing the final TIFF images into Motion to drop the text over. The music used is a GarageBand 8-beat tabla sample from their Keyboard Collection range.
I had good fun making this one!

Samsung Video: Multimedia in bada
One of the earlier FCPX Videos, this one featured infamous Keith Bauwise walking us through the concept of Multimedia in bada.
The audio on this one hasn't held up well. The hiss is frustratingly noticeable and the fade points are too severe. On a good note, my first motion work debuts 0.47 seconds in, transforming a simple UML diagram (courtesy of yuml.me) into a 3D background to conceptually guide you through the bada classes.
We played around with this towards the end, using Photo Booth on the MacBook Pro to simulate the webcam recording that demonstrates recording & playback. We didn't go to the pub, but the thought was there...

Samsung Video: "bada - Familiar Foundations" parts 1 & 2
As I made sure we captured the audio and left a camera running at our highly enjoyable Orange Lab developer event, I was able to create two nice videos featuring Jon Landsell running through a comparison of bada and the other major mobile OS.

something about aliens v0.1
Wanted to try my hand at stop motion, so using a web-cam balanced on a pint glass, I spent a good few hours creating this monster story.. Next time, I think I'd skip lego and go for a Godzilla model...
When I see Lego Stop-Motion these days, I am always impressed at the level of detail. This tiny video took me about four or five hours to create, but some projects must take days. Respek!

Samsung Video: "BuddyFix - A New Way To Get Social'
So we wanted to create an advert for our in-house app "BuddyFix' and as Natasha was happy to help out, we devised a little plot and took the camera into London for a day's filming.. I know the weather wasn't the greatest, but what can you do when you're all there ready to go?
I had to keep the gratuitous bus stop bottom shot in... The music is a standard iLife tune - Would have preferred to create something unique, but we were a little pushed for time in the end. Good fun to shoot though in and around London.
