Working Towards Rewards
July 4, 2008As of the past three weeks I have been working towards getting a DV camcorder. I am looking at the Everio GZ-HD7 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/479003-REG/JVC_GZHD7US_GZ_HD7_Everio_60GB_Hard.html) which is much more expensive than anything I had imagined I would look for at this time.
So, with working, events, and living, I find myself in moments of solitude, set apart for God and thinking. Thinking “do I even want to get that camera? I’m no sure I care…”, wondering, and praying some.
I will probably get this camera, (praise the Lord!,) I will likely endeavor doing interviews, making films with the members of Minosa Films, my friends and family, and even some commercial work.
But in every new step up in the tower of life, I must recall my duties and check my burdens – have I accomplished all that people have required of me to this moment? Am I free to move on? And I must decide and make action upon that conclusion.
I do not want to abandon the talents that have dogged my life so divenely my whole life, but I am eager and curious to move forward in this direction of film making.
Thank you for listening and God bless!
Can’t wait till the future, wondering about it all,

Life Interviews: Your Story
May 26, 2008The title may be misleading, but today I had the privilege to talk to someone who gave me the idea (in part) for this. Life Interviews: Your Story (or whatever the title may end up being) is an attempt to capture a moment of someone’s life on video through a day-long interview.
I hope to follow someone for about one day, asking them questions and just hanging out as they show me what they do. What is their job? Where are they from? What are their beliefs? All these questions await to be answered.
Note: since these interviews deal with particular people and their life story some interviews may not be posted online.
I hope you enjoy these interviews and whatever else we may come up with.
God bless,
Banor
