We just got back from a 5 day trip, filming Gilnetters off of Prince of Wales Island in Alaska. Here are a few pictures of the trip.
Last night we got to film at the Neodandi House of Couture in Pioneer Square in Seattle where designer Niilartey De Osu created a garment on stage for the 20+ viewers in the audience. The garment was created directly on the model with pins and water. Here are a few photos from the event. Video is coming soon on Seattle Fashion TV.

The White House is building on the success of the Obama campaign to win the 2008 election by being media savvy. Combining traditional media and the web 2.0 world, they’re simultaneously reaching through and beyond conventional media to connect with people around the world.
An example of their efforts is the March 20, 2009 video message that Obama directed at the people of Iran. This video has reached audiences of half a million people who have viewed it online, downloaded it and done their own mash-ups, mixing it with their own messages and putting it back online.

We’re excited to be part of the filming of SHINE. If you own your own business, you should come take part in this historic Seattle event.
On May 6, Biznik will undertake the largest collaborative social media film project Seattle has ever seen by bringing together a dozen professional videographers, scores of expert interviewers and hundreds of Seattle’s small entrepreneurs in Seattle’s largest film production facility, Fremont Studios.
Why? Because we want to tell your story. We believe that small business – not large business – will lead us out of the recession. The world needs to hear your story. And for one huge night, the cameras will be rolling for YOU. It’s your chance to shine.
