The Baby Bible Storybook

I found this interesting.



This pretty much hits the nail on the head when it comes to why I get a little bothered by Christianity. So often it gets modified a little bit until the followers are ready for what actually happened. Nature and God apparently aren't 'G' rated enough. Neither is the Bible.

Why do we hide the truth from our children so easily? This thing is missing so much crucial information.

It's also kinda weird that they included Sampson. He tends to get forgotten. It's cool that he's in there though. Might not be as popular if it wasn't for that 60s movie though.

That movie was awesome.

Controlled

30 Minutes to Film: Controlled from Clayton Ward Bennett on Vimeo.



30 minutes to film. 2 hours to edit.

w00t.

This was a bunch of fun to make. I didn't really know what I wanted to make until about halfway through filming. I was just getting footage of Sean playing some vidya-games when I came up with the idea that it would be funny if he was fucking with someone else in the world using the controller.

Then we filmed me in a hallway. And it was silly.

Problem when editing is that I regret not getting enough footage of me flopping around in the hallway. The footage I got was good, but I wish there was more of it.

Anywho, had fun. Learned that I didn't really like the camera we used. But it had an interesting effect on the film anyway.

Wal-Mart Beggar

A Minute: Wal-Mart Begger from Clayton Ward Bennett on Vimeo.



Found a beggar at Wal-Mart. Told him I'd give him a few bucks if he'd talk into a camera for a while. He thought it was a trick. I told him he could say whatever he wants and I'd already given him 2 bucks. So he talked.

Wind sucks. I'm probably going to re-edit this into something else soon.

He made five bucks that day.
