Thanks, WSJ
By Tim.Ian Mount of the Wall Street Journal wrote up Indy Mogul this weekend in their Weekend “Picks” section — here’s an excerpt:
Twice a week the site, called IndyMogul.com, hosts a new instructional video on basic filmmaking techniques and what it terms “BFX” — backyard special effects. In a typical recent video, host Erik Beck responds to a video request from a graduate film student looking for a way to create realistic on-film rain. After explaining that cinematic raindrops need to be larger than real ones if they are to appear on film, Mr. Beck demonstrates how to make a $50 “Hollywood rain machine” out of wood, a garden hose, twist ties and eyehooks. The final effect is remarkably realistic.
Congrats to Erik, Vanessa, Justin and the whole team.
Great way to cap off a week when Rob and Corinne from ThreadBanger were on Rachael Ray, Faran from Girls Gone Styled was profiled on ABC News’ i-Caught, Oksana Baiul hosted Fast Lane Daily, and Josh Marshall interviewed John Edwards, not to mention Internet People continuing to round the globe, showing up on places like Yahoo’s The 9 and VH1’s Best Week Ever. Whew!
