Roadside Attractions
What is it about this crazy stuff we find on the side of the road that I love to shoot? Is it the broken dreams? The shear realism of it? Or is it the degradation brought from abuse or carelessness? I think it just reminds me how this is all temporal and fleeting….
Metanoia
Ten years ago, Hollywood filmmaker Betsy Chasse co-created a movie on science and mysticism (subjects she knew nothing about), and was forevermore plucked from the oblivion of Valley Girl “shoe consciousness.” The movie, “What the Bleep Do We Know!?,” changed her life and the life of millions as it went on to make spiritual cinema history.

Maroon Belles & the CARE Channel
For the last three years, Bluedot has been filming some of the most beautiful places on the West Coast. A dream project – Bluedot has been shooting and editing 1080p nature cinematography for Healing Healthcare Systems, who operate this great idea… the C.A.R.E. Channel.
The CARE Channel provides beautiful imagery with soft jazz across America’s hospital system, where users can tune into the beauty that nature has to offer, instead of just their regular choice of television programming.
More Powerful Facebook Fan Pages
Facebook! A name that draws fear or disgust from many web developers. Fan or Foe, facebook is the hot place right now, as everyone is using it. What does this mean to developers and graphic designers? It means we get to learn yet another constantly changing API.
To add more interest and stickiness, there are some new tricks that will allow us to add images, video, tabbed browsing, and many other features normally reserved for only our blogs.
A touch of His Holiness the Dalai Lama
It was an exciting 10 days in Los Angeles, filming the Gaden Shartse Monastery Tour, and His Holiness the Dalai Lama at both the Long Beach Convention Center, and University of California at Irvine.
All the approvals, all the state department reviews, all the driving were worth this one moment of His Holiness coming on stage at UCI while the Gaden Monks provided an introduction purification ceremony. Look for more in the upcoming feature documentary “For All Sentient Beings”
