Equipment and Appointment
Ignore my attempt at a fancy synonymic title. This past week, I’ve been getting a lot of work done. In addition to getting some work done with a client I’ve been working with, I recently picked up a few photo gigs. Next week, I’ll be shooting Edgefest as well as the Much Music Video Awards [...]
Toronto Sucks
Alright, so I know that my own hometown is a great city, but I really wish I was still in Los Angeles. Perhaps I should be somewhat elated by the fact that a new iPhone was just announced, but that isn’t making me feel any better about being in Toronto. Look, I love the city, [...]
Hollywood!
Since E3 finished, I had some time to do the tourist thing and head to Hollywood Blvd. to check out some hot spots. There were plenty of sights and sounds, but I think the pictures tell the best story. Hollywood Blvd. was full of sights, as well as The Grove shopping centre, and the Hollywood [...]
Final Day at E3
My final day at E3 was a hectic one. I started at about 8:30 a.m., ran to the Halo 3: ODST line (and was still about 30 minutes from the front), made the journey between the hotel and the Convention Center twice (to charge my camera’s battery and unload the eighteen pounds of swag I [...]
Halo 3: ODST Multiplayer Preview
Before I get to writing about Day Three, I want to take some time out to talk Halo 3: ODST. I got the chance to partake in the multiplayer Co-Op preview called Firefight, in which waves of Covenant baddies fly in from their Carriers. This type of thing is becoming more and more common in [...]
E3 Day Two
There isn’t much more to report about E3 that I haven’t already, except for the games that I managed to check out that I didn’t really take a deep look into yesterday. I am even more stoked about Splinter Cell: Conviction than I was yesterday. It may be the way they’ve been demoing the game [...]
Day One of E3 2009
Perhaps I spoke a little hastily. Microsoft had some great pieces at their Press Conference. I still think Sony was the clear winner (although their motion sensing peripheral brought them down a few points), but Microsoft did really pull out a lot of great stuff here. So let me tell you what I mean. Or [...]
Assassin's Creed 2
Play during the Italian Renaissance. Befriend DaVinci. Double wrist-mounted blades. More wagons of hay. Drool.
Press Conferences @ E3
Now that we’ve got the big three Press Conferences out of the way, I want to just run over the highlights. Microsoft Halo 3: ODST and Halo Reach – ODST looks fantastic, and just what will Halo: Reach bring? Project Natal: sweet new motion sensing. I am totally on board I just need to buy [...]
DJ Hero Presents: Jay Z and Eminem
Last night, a private unannounced event took place with some of the biggest stars in Hollywood, the music industry, and from abroad. Celebrities gathered to check out Activision’s private launch party, with headlining guests none other than JAY Z and EMINEM. The night got started with DJ AM and Travis Barker dueling it out live [...]
