The (german only) slides to my two recent lectures at filmArche Berlin are online now. One online presentation about Colour in Movies, and two PDFs about Digital Video Workflow and Codecs and Backups.

On the topic of Backups I have written in the two previous blog posts that of course are a lot more accessible than just the slides.

In my last post I wrote in length about backups but I omitted one thing: how to make incremental backups that use so called hard links and that barely take more space than 1:1 backups (on both windows and osx). First though, let me explain what is so nice about this concept.

I always thought that one of the great things about digital technology is the ability to have backups - physical items can break but with digital data there is no reason why you should ever loose it, because creating exact copies of it is easily possible. And yet few people I know have a convincing backup strategy. Since I will hold a lecture at the filmArche filmschool next week on Workflow with digital files and Backups I thought this would be a good time to write the most important points about it down.

I finally finished work on the website for the film I am currently working on, 920 Milligray. The design was done by Marius Wawer and I built the html page and set up a drupal cms for the future (it currently only serves the FAQ page).

I'm doing a little lecture tomorrow at filmArche on colour grading and thought that I could share a few links on the topic here.
