Art Of Life On Kurt Cobain Documentary

Jun 12, 2015 |

The Art of Life With Steve Slotow

Jun 5, 2015 | ,

They called in two friends to shoot the web series (for free) and proceeded to slowly churn out episodes - every couple of weeks/months. One of the guys is Steve Slotow. The other is yours truly.

So Steve Slotow and I are still plugging along - albeit slowly - with the Art of Life web series. We are on Episode 11 and the intention is to keep building.

Sep 2, 2013 |

The 9th episode is done. Shot, edited and finally up on our YouTube channel which you can check out and subscribe to HERE. We generally shoot a couple of episodes in advance and then it is the process of editing and uploading. It would be good to get feedback from those of you who interact with the series either here, on Steve's blog or on YouTube. The intention is to keep going and see where it'll take us. Maybe we'll throw a party with Episode 50, or something. Anyway, in this episode, Steve and I chat about the Sony Action Cam, which is going head to head with the Go-Pro range of cameras....

Another episode of the Art of Life with Steve Slotow and myself is in the bag and live. My piloting inadequacies were front and centre with this episode and we also chatted about the Xbox One (no, we don't have one) and the iGrill. Please go over to our YouTube channel and subscribe (if we don't bore you to death) and share.
