Same day edit

I just found out that I don't have as many memes on my computer as I thought I'd have.
So instead I am posting a video that our team produced this summer for one corporate client in Estonia. It was a three day competition with students from all over the world presenting their business ideas. Organisatio nof the event was excellent which had made video editing slightly easier for us. By the way, the edit has been completed the same day as filming.

Experience in selling stock footage online

After a long break, I am back again!

As you probably noticed, most of my post for the last year have been about videos and media content produced by my company Vita Pictura productions. Do I have any visitors or followers here on Blogger who also work in media business? Or maybe some of you have hobbies, for example photography, filming or editing?

Has any of you tried selling your footage on online stock pages? I have tried Pond5 and Shutterstock. Which websites are good and why? Do you actually use any of them?

Meanwhile, register and upload your footage by clicking here and earn me some money from your sales:



And as a bonus, here is one of the latest videos our team produced here in Estonia:

For sports fans

Another Samsung cycling marathon, the last one this year will take place on 7th September. It took place in Kuremaa area of central Estonia, in a place that is well-known for its lakes that's been formed there ten thousand years ago after the glacier retreated north.

One Mile Challenge

Another video produced by Vita Pictura productions: one mile competition. Took place this summer near Haapsalu, a town on a shore of the Baltic Sea in Estonia. We managed to produce an amazing video thanks to helicam and a construction crane that had been installed near by.

One Mile Challenge is One Mile Top Speed Competition and the biggest top speed competition in Baltics. Please visit the website for additional information: onemile.ee. In 2013 there are two competitions held - on 8th June and 24th August. Be there and enjoy speed and fast cars!

Gumball 3000 in Tallinn

Okay, below you can check out the video filmed by my company Vita Pictura productions. Starring David Hasselhoff, Tony Hawk, some cars, and lots of other things. Let me know what you think about the video! Btw it was filmed in Tallinn's Townhall Square this spring. Wait for more video uploads soon...

Sigma (UK)

Just got my new camera, so wait for new posts soon!

For now, just gonna publish an interview we filmed two weeks ago in Tartu, Estonia, with UK DJ Sigma (with Russian subtitles):

The whole footage was filmed in club Illusioon in Tartu.

filming sessions

My camera broke after falling down on the floor, so do not expect photos any time soon. Last month was spent filming different parties in Tallinn. It is part of a future TV show. I will write about it more throgougly after we finish filming the pilot episode covering music and night life in Tallinn and Estonia in general.

In short, what our company wants to achieve is to exchange English style cinematography with lifestyle and music in Estonia. It still seems like there is not enough of cultural and music communication between Estonia and other  European countries, and that is what we are trying to improve at the moment.

While I am busy organizing shootings in Estonian clubs, I'll post a video we have filmed couple of weeks ago in Club Hollywood in Tallinn:

Week in Tallinn

Maria Minerva playing in Sõprus Cinema in Tallinn, Estonia.

Apparently she left her homeland to play in London instead. 

Preparing for film premiere in the same cinema as Maria Minerva was playing in the night before:

 

Premiere of three short films that my friends, with my help, shot/produced in the same cinema:

Me on the left. I had to give a little explanatory speech about the short films and what our company does and what our new projects are.  My speech was a little too short and messy since I did not prepare much and still was "tired" after Maria Minerva's party the night before...

The main star of the night, Lena Kudryavtseva

And finally, we decided to attend amateur Fashion show in one of universities in Tallinn:

All of clothes were designed by fashion students. I made a lot of photos but most of them were blurry...
