Phil — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 21:58:35 +0000

If I had about £5,000 placed in front of me right now to purchase a new camcorder for my work, then it would be a straight choice between the Sony PMW EX3 or the Canon XL -H1S.

I’ve put reviews of both these amazing cameras below for you to watch.. but the question is….

Which one would you choose and why?

Sony XDCAM PMW-EX3

Canon XL-H1

Optimistic Monday Morning!

Blogging from my iphone

Phil — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 22:08:38 +0000

I was thinking, wouldn’t it be great of If I could blog from my iPhone… Would probably get alot more communication out there.

So I tap in Wordpress in the app store and hey presto, it’s there. And it’s free!

So here I am, blogging from my iPhone!

I feel kind of dumb not realizing that it’s probably been available since I started blogging 5 months ago. Although it’s obvious it will be easier, I won’t have the multimedia experience I use normally in blog posts….. Hmmmm though maybe there are apps for that too!

My Fav tune out right now…

Tinie Tempah – “Pass Out” -

Not normally a big grime fan, but this track is really polished, quite fun and drops a little bit of drum & bass towards the end!

Vocal Training – Turning a Kitten into a Tiger!

Phil — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 16:24:46 +0000

The latest presentation given at Cooks Barn in Bottisham for Ann Hawkins Inspired Group event saw Fergus McClelland give an amazing presentation on the power and importance of your voice. In this clip, we seem him help transform a lady with very little confidence into someone with loads of it with vocal exercises.

(Local Bloggers – Please embed this video into your own blog if you wish to support what Ann is doing at Cooks Barn by creating your own post about it. The page where you can embed this video can be found HERE)

I’m in the process of finding a solution of uploading the WHOLE of the presentation on the web right now, but as you can imagine, at 48 minutes, its a fairly hefty file size!
