Trip to Saint Petersburg
From 19.04 till 5.05 I’ll be in Saint Petersburg, editing sound of my movie “When New Year comes on Shabbat” and participating in some activities of the Upward! community. One of them is the screening of the two movies, and I was DoP at one of this movies.
Digital Bolex D16 vs. Blackmagic Cinema Camera (comparison table)
Well, I knew that putting my money in Digital Bolex Kickstater’s project just few days before NAB is risky. But then I saw prices of Canon’s C500 and 1D Cinema, and I thought that there couldn’t be two miracles in one time. And I can always sell Digital Bolex and buy that 5D Mark III. [...]
The elephant got the name of Tuffi, meaning ‘waterdive’ in italian
Both ‘Alice in the Cities’ and ‘The Princess and the Warrior’ has scenes shot at Wuppertal Schwebebahn – so know I have to visit that place. Tuffi (c. 1947 – 1989) was a female circus elephant that became famous in Germany in 1950 when she jumped from the suspended monorail in Wuppertal into the river [...]
Photo/Video software I use
Camera Bits Photo Mechanic Shows RAW files (even big ones from 5D Mark II) VERY fast. Best software to select-resize-crop RAW pictures. Phase One Media Pro Previews and plays h264 video from 5D Mark II VERY VERY fast. Both are Mac/Windows.
Capturing sound
I just wrote a long article on Russian about capturing sound. Can’t translate everything on English, so here is the list of mentioned gadgets: Zoom Q3, which I’m currently selling. Zoom Q3HD, which is great because of the same as Zoom H4n mics, HD camera and Line In. But still not as good as Zoom [...]
I’m continuing to film my movie
I’m so into video now so photography doesn’t interest me at all. I’m even doing pictures for some new secret webmagazine, and doing it well, but I’d rather shoot video for them (and they are doing video version). I started to shoot video commercially to, from fashion backstage to private birthday party of 6 years [...]

Musrara
Inspired by David Perlov, Jonas Mekas and Ron Havilio (funny that his daughters have same names as Perlov’s), I’m doing sort of video diary as a final project at Musrara, where I’ve studied photography for two years. Finally I’m tired of the pictures, concepts etc and want just to shoot movie. Of course there is [...]
Francis Ford Coppola
How does an aspiring artist bridge the gap between distribution and commerce? We have to be very clever about those things. You have to remember that it’s only a few hundred years, if that much, that artists are working with money. Artists never got money. Artists had a patron, either the leader of the state [...]
