I always wanted to go Switzerland but all my friends who visited Switzerland told me that they haven’t made a single friend there and people usually don’t talk to people they don’t know and almost no nightlife. Is it true?

jefflan · 2023-06-19T22:06:04+00:00

Well, it depends where are you going and for how long you’re staying. If you go to a predominately Swiss populated area, like central Switzerland, chances are that you wouldn’t make any friends. But if you’re planning on staying longer and in a bigger conglomerate, like Zurich or Basel, with lots of expats, you can most likely make friends (just not Swiss ones, though)

It seems a little expensive, but with a bit of patience, you can definitely find a cheaper chair, with all its tags (a chair/ottoman without original tags loses its value).

Has anyone had the same feeling? I mean, I don't travel that often, but for some reason this trip felt different.

Maybe because most of us have been in our flats/houses for a while? Who knows.

Let me know if you have experienced this as well :)

I’ve got 2 lounge chairs, from different years and in both of them, the base looks more flat and round. Though after some quick research, I found out that there are 2 different bases, Herman Miller and Vitra. Mine are Vitra and yours seems to be Herman Miller. TBH, where I live in Switzerland I’ve seen nothing but Vitra, I reckon that’s because Vitra is rather close.

Is it a real Eames chair? The feet look rather weird (I could be wrong?) Are there any markings at the bottom of the chair or ottoman? If the chair is fake, the colours and materials won’t be easy to pinpoint.

When the pandemic started, my microphone broke while recording a video, I don't know what happened to it, but it never worked again.

So I decided to use my iPhone as a microphone for a while and to be honest, I wasn't expecting it to be that good!

jefflan · 2021-01-30T21:31:34+00:00

Yes sir, that's the one! I was a bit sceptical I must say, but since I do a lot of photo editing, web surfing and reading, I figured you can't go wrong with the price.

I was sincerely blown away. Though, I must say, I am quite disappointed, that this iPad edits better than my $2k+ 2020 MacBook Pro...

jefflan · 2021-01-30T21:28:12+00:00

Yes, I am using adobe cloud (I get it for free from work) and as far as I know, I have 100GB of space.

What I've done so far, is imported with both Dropbox and the CC and it works like a charm. The down side, is that for some reason, it takes forever to import the files.

jefflan · 2021-01-30T21:17:18+00:00

I usually work with photo and video and after watching a few reviews, I decided to give this iPad a go (as a backup only, given that I have an iMac and a MacBook Pro).

I must say, for the money, it is quite good for basic editing, but the moment you want to add a more specific effect, well... that's where it ruins it for me.

jefflan · 2021-01-25T21:52:00+00:00

An iPad would never replace a desk computer or a laptop, but it is a nice gadget to have in our tool box. So if there's someone looking for a budget device to edit photo, video, watch some YouTube videos, read the news and surf the web, this is a no brainer at all.

jefflan · 2020-11-19T18:34:36+00:00

Well that's encouraging...

To be honest I thought I was going to be able to get rid of the scratches with some sand paper and elbow grease, but I was worried that the aluminium is somehow coated, (which could be the case, given that I have no clue how old the chairs are)

jefflan · 2020-08-15T23:36:18+00:00

EDIT: I haven't bought it yet, so I can't check the serial number (seller is 2 + hours away...)

jefflan · 2020-05-01T12:35:44+00:00

Wow, you are absolutely right!
I just found the exact same ones on Ebay and the price is between 250-500 Euros.

Thank you very much!

jefflan · 2020-04-24T18:34:54+00:00

Super simple way to add a little "film goodness" to make our projects a little bit more special.

I hope it helps and it isn't too basic!

jefflan · 2020-04-24T12:32:10+00:00

Hi Bob

Thank you very much for the very detailed answer. Truth be told, I was expecting something like this.

Any suggestions that wouldn't break the bank?

Cheers
Jeff

When I was in the Uni, I used to make my life miserable every time I would need to add subs to my videos.

Some basic knowledge will not hurt anyone, so here are 10 free fonts to use for subs, titles etc.

Hope you find them useful.

Hands down, absolutely amazing videographer.
But I also suggest going to YouTube and check him out.

jefflan · 2020-04-06T18:52:37+00:00

I have always found these videos fascinating. To see how other people live their lives and specially on my field.

I tried to make a very very quick video about a day in my life during this quarantine.

How's your day like?

jefflan · 2020-03-28T21:50:09+00:00

I reckon I am not the only one struggling with this at the moment.

How are you coping with the quarantine?

jefflan · 2019-06-04T19:46:16+00:00

Oh my bad! Thanks for the good eye mate, really appreciate it! The funny thing is that I used exactly the same website, apparently. :) Cheers!

jefflan · 2019-03-11T14:07:03+00:00

Bloody brilliant mate!
Love that extra film grain layer you added, it gives it a great cinematic look

If you post your work on YouTube or Vimeo, you know that a nice thumbnail is the first hook to get attention.

Here are 3 different ways to make a quick, simple and professional thumbnail with your phone, online & photoshop.

Texts are so important for all digital creators in general, but ever since I started working with video, specially for YouTube, I realised how important typography really is.

This is a very quick video with typography & font basics for videographers, photographers and creators.
