Camera Geek Alert – Sony RX1 Hands-On Review

Small cameras with big sensors are clearly an important part of the future. From the shockingly affordable cinema cameras from Blackmagic Designs to my beloved Olympus E-M5, it's clear to see that camera manufacturers are responding to a demand for compact camera systems. Sony is up there toward the front of the "big sensor/small camera" charge and seem to be pushing the technology forward, with last years Cybershot RX100, and now this years Cybershot RX1,... read more ›

The Next Big Thing [I’m Serious]: REIGNWOLF

reignwolf by chase jarvis
Prepare yourselves. The age of Reignwolf is upon us. After personally witnessing multiple insane performances by Jordan Cook, aka Reignwolf, that's the feeling I get. He's upon us - and brings a no-holds-barred guitar, soaks it in an electrocuting sweaty stage presence and then punches it home with the grittiest devil-may-actually-care voice and lyrics. Sometimes he plays with a band - other times, like in this clip, he's a one-man storm that showcases... read more ›

Inspiring New York City Time Lapse: The Manhattan Project

I'm headed back to New York city this week. The city has a unique way of pushing photographers and filmmakers to be more creative. The constant pulse of visual inspiration is motivational. My own work has been given the occasional Big Apple boost - in fact, it was just one year ago that I wrapped up my Dasein: An Invitation to Hang installation at the Ace Hotel. The mini-doc and some of my conclusions on... read more ›

Conversation with Vincent Laforet on Gear, Career, Vision and More

The following is a transcription excerpt from a conversation a while back on #cjLIVE between yours truly and my dear friend, Pulitzer Prize winning photographer and filmmaker Vincent Laforet where we discuss gear, professional career, creative vision and more.

New Era, Start-to-Finish Evolution of a Music Video Project

Beautiful music vid here performed by Seattle hip hop pals Macklemore (@macklemore) & Ryan Lewis (@ryanlewismusic) and shot by emerging Seattle filmmaker friend Zia Mohajerjasbi (@DrZia) You think this video emerged fully formed outta these guys' brains?

Not just the 'making of' but the whole process... read more ›

chase jarvis LIVE: We Are Augustines Re-Watch

We then followed up with a live photoshoot for forthcoming promo material for the band and release of their new album. BTW, when you realize that you want to buy their album, sit tight. It'll be... read more ›

How did I make this picture? Is it a lucky snapshot? Is it lit? If so, how? The camera Settings? The direction? Post production? Whatever details you think are needed to make this image.
