AIRing it all out
PBS launches a new journalistically inclined series that adds to their already impressive roster. The weekly half-hour program chronicles contemporary investigative journalism making headlines. They even interview the newsmakers behind the stories, offering students like myself and news-junkies a glimpse into the thought process behind the stories. Not just the ‘what’, but the ‘why.’...
So this is where I’ve been for three days this summer
During the last weekend of July, myself, Daniel Esch and Neal Water convened on the second annual San Jose Grand Prix with our cameras in tow. We were there to create a multimedia package compleate with slideshows and video for The Spartan Daily website. Our goal was to hit the ground running with the so-called...
I’m deep? Who knew
Turns out I’m deeper than I thought. Or so says a friend (I think I suprised her). I was talking to fellow SJSU photographer Ashley last week and we got on the topic of finding our callings and how we know. When I offered up: For the longest time I nvr knew what was next...
Moving pictures and I don’t mean flip-books
For months I’ve been looking for the perfect means for uploading my video work onto the blog. I’d been putting it off, constantly moving the task to the back burner whenever other things came along. But now the time has come. Last Friday I helped a friend edit together a teaser trailer for his band....
It’s time to send some love
Joyce fell. I only met her a few weeks ago and I already knew we’d still be talking five, ten years down the road. With some people you just know. Unfortunatly two days after she asked me “how do I get to the Sierras?”… and I proceded to tell her only to then say, “Oh...
So this is where I was for a week this summer
During the first week of August I had the distinct pleasure of attending the AEJMC convention held in San Francisco, California this year.AEJMC, the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication, is a non-profit organization aimed at J-School educators, administrators, their students and media professionals. Founded in Chicago, Illinois, in 1912, the non-profit has...
Oh well…
(I was looking through some of my unpublished articals and it looks like I forgot to publish this one… it’s been a few months… it was supposed to go up June 3) Looks like I won’t be traveling with famed New York Times columnist Nick Kristof to Africa anytime. On a positive note, I didn’t...

Some cold hard RAW
Adobe has been rumbling about RAW again. As I pointed out… way back when… Adobe looked to be answering Apple’s challenge of Aperture with LightRoom. (Oh no, I see a soapbox! Why didn’t Adobe call it LightTable? Doesn’t that make more sense? It’s an editing program and where did we edit our takes in the...
So this is where I’ve been
While I was away from SLR, one of the things that was keeping me busy was serving as Online/Multimedia Editor for The Spartan Daily. Among the new things I worked toward implementing, one of my proudest moments was the implementation of multimedia and the new multimedia section. But enough about me, let’s take a look...
Maybe a tube was clogged
Happened to be purusing by Daniel Sato’s blog and to my surprise, fellow photographer and San Jose State University student Diana Diroy has decided to start up a blog of her own. She’s off in the Philippines working on a documentary project, and in the process is reconnecting with her cultural roots. Along the way...
