DemandTec Retail Challenge

DemandTec is an analytical software tool that allows retailers to stay up to date on, and modify, their pricing structure using real time data. As part of their corporate citizenship program they have created the DemandTec Retail Challenge, which allows high school students the opportunity to compete against each other as analysts using the DemandTec software.  Several qualifying students are flown to New York City each year and the winners of the challenge receive scolarship funds and an opportunity to ring the bell at the New York Stock Exchange.

We are proud sponsors of this program, and we’d like to share the video from last year’s challenge with you.  Click the image below to be taken to the video hosted on DemandTec’s website:

Predilect – The Next Big Thing in Security Authentication

We are excited to present a video we have created for Predilect, a start-up driven by serial entrepreneur Jon Fisher. Predilect promises to present a technology that will replace question based security authentication, which  research has shown to be succeptible through data-mining.  It’s not very secure if your same security answers are stored with a variety of companies on servers with varying level of security. 

We don’t know the answer, but we are intrigued!

Check out the teaser video that we have created for them, and tune in as the Predilect story unfolds.

Live shot with the Hot Hot Heat and the 22-20s

We did another shoot for a musical live stream yesterday – of the post-punk/new wave revivalist band  Hot Hot Heat and the blues/rock influenced 22-20s.  We love working with musicians and it’s always a treat to be a part of an intimate performance such as this, where we can witness the creativity up close and personal, and capture it.

Click here for the archived live video on ustream and scroll below for our production pics:

Capturing Damian Marley’s live freestyle

 The Big Picture shot a live Q & A yesterday of Reggae artist Damian Marley.  Holding a tablet, he viewed and answered questions from fans that were posting to the chat board.

Damian, as you can guess, is the son of Bob Marley and an accomplished grammy-award winning musician in his own right.   In the video you can see him discuss his upcoming musical projects as well as plans to visit Africa.

Spoiler Alert! For scary funny office akwardness, skip to 3:02 for the “special unveiling”… close your office door and duck for cover!

We had several scenes for this piece, all shot on the same day in different locations in San Francisco.  A downtown loft, a taxi cab, on a city street near a bus stop, and inside and outside a San Francisco nightclub.SanDisk Lifestyles Video Shoot 005
