Just kicked off the edit for Xavier Rudd’s music video. We shot this @ Paste Magazine in Georgia. Xavier is a good dude. He’s from Australia, and he has an interesting sound. Check out his site- www.xavierrudd.com
Can a story change the world? In the spring of 2003, three young Americans traveled to Africa in search of such a story. What they found was a tragedy that both disgusted and inspired them; a story where the children are the weapons and the victims. After returning to the States, they created the documentary “Invisible Children: Rough Cut”; a film exposes the effects of a 20-year-long war on the children of northern Uganda. These children live in fear of abduction by rebel soldiers, and are being forced to fight as part of a violent army. The film was originally shown to friends and family, but has now been seen by millions of people. The overwhelming response has been, “How can I help?” To answer this question, the non-profit Invisible Children, Inc. was created, giving compassionate and inspired youth an effective way to respond to the situation. - Visit invisiblechildren.com

Invisible Children: The Tour is officially in post! Kicked off the edit this morning here in Charlotte with Halogen TV. Tyler is wrapping up the second half of shooting throughout the New England area. This documentary should be airing in January- February. Super amped about this one!
![Above is the first digital camera. It was made by Steve Sasson working for Kodak in 1975. 1975! Using “a lens from a Super 8 camera, a whole stack of ni-cad batteries, a digital to analog converter from a voltmeter, [and] a highly experimental CCD.” Oh and that cassette tape on the side, thats are how the pictures are stored.
The camera captured a 100-line image onto that cassette-tape, yet even that tiny picture took a mind-numbing 23 seconds to write. Playback was possibly clunkier still, using another tape-player hooked up to a frame-storing devices that interpolated those 100 lines to an NTSC-compatible 400-line image and then showed it on a regular TV-screen.
Though it was built in 1975 and patented in 1978 it stayed hidden from the public until 2001. It still remains in Steve Sasson’s possession!](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l80vkmz77z1qalh0qo1_500.jpg)
