DEV – Introducing the Table of Pain

July 25, 2012

Haha what the hell? This looks like it should be promising. I do think Josh Betley did lie in this. He was really looking for a karaoke bar. Guaranteed.

“This has been an ECLIPSEMOTIONARTWORKS and DEV. collaboration starring the incredible MuscleMustache and Hornymegaman documented by eagle-eyed Timm Wiegmann. Fogmachine managed by Josh Betley while light was brought by the cheap TIP Crew. There is no special effects and nothing special in here at all. We stole the music from random videos on youtube titled as simple as “10 most epic songs of all time”
Get your package of pain at DEV. Jam 2012!

Through The Lens: Packing Camera Gear For A Trip

July 25, 2012

Photography

If you have any interest in pursuing BMX photography or photography in general you will eventually need to learn how to prepare for trips, know how to pack your gear, and be ready to handle whatever project it is you may be working on. One of the main reasons that I love writing this column is the fact that each feature seems to come out pretty organically. For the most part I don’t plan ahead, and I typically won’t work on a column until the night before. For example it’s 12:23AM and I am just getting started writing this week’s feature. Sure, it may not seem like the best idea to put off a deadline until the very last minute or to wait until the bitter end to come up with an idea and then stay up until the sun rises working on it but to me, that is the best part about it. Each week the same mountain is put in front of me and I have to climb it every time no matter what I did in the days leading up to it, no matter how tired or burnt out I may be or no matter how big of a case of writers block I may be experiencing at the time. This is the 23rd TTL and I just wanted to send a shout-out to all of the people who have emailed me and said good things about the column, all of the companies who support The Union, and anyone who can appreciate what it takes to make it in the photo game these days; now onto TTL #23.
