Quick Update: VJ Vault & 5 Year Film Project
Hello everyone,
Happy New Year! We hope everyone had a great holiday with family and friends. We also hope that VJ Vault was a useful loop resource for your VJ performances over the holiday season. We would also like to apologize for the downtime. It appears that VJ Vaults popularity has some negative side effects. Over the last month and on other previous occasions we have been attacked by site hacks which resulted in some unsafe browsing conditions. All of this is inconvenient for you and us which costs us money and ruins your visiting experience. We are truly sorry but hope you can understand it’s out of our control. While we will always try to maintain a secure site nothing is 100% safe against hackers who are determined to ruin a good thing.
On a positive note Sean Fleck the creator of VJ Vault and director of the “5 Year Film Project” along with myself have set out to finish the 30 minute demo for an epic time-lapse film. We will keep you updated on it’s progress over the next few months with sneak previews. So stay with us, get involved and we wish you the best in 2011!

No commentsVJ Loops back online, features still being added. Massive content update & New artists.
Well the VJ Loops hiatus seems to be over. My hosting provider took their sweet time switching servers and making database backups. Maybe they are upset because I am taking advantage of the unlimited transfer and space. They probably didnt expect a site with nearly 2TB of data to be on there.
Here’s what’s new.
A ton of content in 1080p, 720p, 576p and ultra wide are up and ready to browse. We also received a shipment of 20 Source Visuals DVD’s. Great for stocking stuffers this holiday.
We also did a little head hunting and found two new artists that your sure to love. Kim Pimmel and Johannes LDC Guerreiro.
Kim works with light painting and timelapse/stop motion with slow shutter using turntables, motors, Arduino technology and a ton of LED Lights. Check out his video below.
Light Drive from Kim Pimmel on Vimeo.
Stop motion form and colour, using light painting techniques.
Lighting: Kim Pimmel
Sound: Tron Legacy trailers
I’ve been interested in taking my Light Study photo series and evolving them into motion pieces. I shot a lot of footage for a VJ gig for FITC San Francisco. So I edited together those stop motion sequences, mashed up some audio from the Tron Legacy trailers, and out came Light Drive.
The video is stop motion, so every frame is an individually shot photograph. Each photograph is a long exposure photo, with exposures reaching up to 20 seconds in some cases.
To control the lights, I used an Arduino controlled via bluetooth to drive a stepper motor. The stepper motor controls the movements of the lights remotely from Processing.
The light sources include cold cathode case lights, EL wire, lasers and more.

Johannes I came across in a Facebook post. The word object mapping came up. Curious I took a look and was very happy with what I saw. VJLoops.tv is happy to have Johannas and his Object mapping work in our shop. Check out his demo video below.
01 Zentrale – Projection Mapping from Johannes LDC Guerreiro on Vimeo.
The project 01 Zentrale was planned to be ready to install at platine festival 2010 in cologne. http://www.platine-cologne.de/10/?p=71 It was the first time experimenting with Video Projection Mapping on real Objects. It is a pity to film all the stuff, because the real light mapping experience is too impressive in live.

25 commentsNew features for iPhone 3G OS 4.0, but update only available for iPhone 3G and 3GS model
Apple’s upcoming iPhone OS 4.0 will be available for upgrade only on its 3G and 3GS models, officially phasing out 2G rapidly.
Here we go with the first Apple iPhone model out on the street. Since the launch of the original iPhone in the summer of 2007, Apple has made major OS upgrades available to the oldest model. Not anymore. Apple’s upcoming iPhone OS 4.0 will be available for upgrade only on its 3G and 3GS models, officially phasing out 2G rapidly.
As more developers introduce 4.0 active features only, you will see users forced to upgrade to one of the new models if they want to update their apps accordingly. This also suggests the 4.0 version will have features that will seriously take advantage of the new OS 4.0 to make the hardware from three years ago completely useless. Logical enough.
Rumors also suggest after the OS 4.0 upgrade, 3G and 3GS will act even more like full-fledged computers. To quote the BGR source, ” [it will] put them [3G and 3GS] ahead in the smartphone market because it will make them more like full-fledged computers.” That means Apple could potentially be opening up the platform to allow developers to take advantage of the entire system and not be limited by Apple in any form.
Our iPhone software will be also updated. The iPhone Converter software which includes DVD to iPhone Converter and iPhone Video Converter tools may be updated later to respond to the update of iPhone. The current version of our iPhone Converters support iPhone oldest version, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS very well. It’s a powerful and professional iPhone movie converter tool to help you convert DVD movies to iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS with high speed and amazing quality. Later in this year, we will start to develop the new version for Apple iPhone 3G OS 4.0. It will deserve your attention.
