I just had the same idea: www.12seconds.tv
There’s me having a creative blitz, only to find out someone has already done it! Since I’ve started my video blogging extravaganza Today in My Life, I’m really getting into it. In fact, it’s feeding into all kinds of other ideas I’m getting. You could argue, I’m inspiring myself – that’s a very interesting experience! …
Burger and Chips from Seven Sisters Kebab (Takeaway)
Sometimes, nothing says it better than a burger from a kebab shop. Enter the Seven Sisters Kebab and Pizza store. It’s been there forever, and although they were looking for a buyer not 12 months ago, the FOR SALE sign is gone for good and I understand in broken English that the proprietor is eager …
Today in My Life, Episode #2
Having to do my VAT return, although I’d rather like to be outside with my wife.
Today in My Life, Episode #1
The start of a brand new series.
NEW SERIES: Today in My Life (aka The V-Log)
STOP THE PRESS: we’ve got a brand new series coming to versluis.com! Discovering more and more functions of my superb little Casio Exilim camera, I’ve been playing around with the YouTube uploader today. It’s the ideal tool to do video blogging, and is obviously one of the best platforms for blogging with my pretty face. …
Blonde Muddis (1994)
I’ve discovered this highly embarrassing gem from my dubious German past the other day: In this sketch from 1994, my colleague Andre Grossman and I put on this production of a highly working class couple. I’m playing the mad mother, he’s my drunk husband. We used to be fans of Schmidteinander, a cult comedy show …
Thirsty? Here are 15 ways to fill a water glass!
[flashvideo file=”/video/water-glass.flv” /] For this video, I’ve filled up 15 glasses of water in my kitchen (the same glass actually). Although not really noticable, all footage is shot in slow motion using my Sony HDR-HC9E. I’m still excited about that feature. It got a bit tricky to put all the shots together, and I had …
Today’s Breakfast in Slow Motion
Julia and I were out shopping yesterday, and discovered this tiny new Casio Exilim camera that does slow motion video recordings. Looking at this, I remember that my Sony HDR-HC9 has this function, and that I’ve never played with it before. We got pretty excited, it’s very inspiring, and this is what came out this …
Top 10 Marketing Tips from Internet Gurus
It constantly amuses me that all internet marketing gurus are so very very rich, yet they find nothing better to do with their time than to sell us how they did it. Haven’t you got a yacht to ride, a beach to sip cocktails at or blackjack tables that needs your attention? Here’s what I’ve …
Life after Missing Live
With the series finale of Missing Live on Good Friday, it’s both sad and a relief that 4 weeks of mayhem have come to an end. I’m relieved because a nasty cold caught me with my pants down last week and I can do with some recovery time; at the same time I’m sad because …
My Life: a Quarterly Review (March 2009)
Let me start by bringing you a classic video from the past: none other than Phil Fearon and Galaxy, “Everybody’s Laughing”. I remember listening to this a lot 20 years ago, it brings back memories. Enjoy! I’m currently busier than every, and it’s really enjoyable too (and accounts for the lack of updates recently). Let …
Burger & Chips from Deliverance, Chiswick
A perk of freelance work is the occasional free food that comes with a strenuous long shift. When we do Premier League at the weekend, we get a meal from http://www.deliverance.co.uk, and of course Burger and Chips is a classic among colleagues. Deliverance send food into West London and cook anything from Chinese, Thai, Indian, …
Burger and Chips at The Earl of Camden
Excellent! Bloody excellent is all I can say! But to get a consistent review across the board, we’ll have to define some variables first that make up a good burger. I tend to expect a ballpark figure of £10 for such a meal. Here’s my thoughts on this one: THE BURGER: SUPERB stuff. About an …
New Series: BURGER & CHIPS
I should have realsied this much earlier than this week, but I have a confession to make: I love Burger and Chips. Any variation, any time, and place. So I thought maybe I’ll document my Burger and Chips journey thorughout the following months, with detailed pictures and descriptions where you can find the best burger …
Broadcast News now featuring JOBS SECTION
We have integrated a brand new JOBS section at the top of the page. The idea of integrating community features into the site has been on the cards for a while, with the intention of bringing broadcasters and freelancers together (thanks to Jahlene Joseph for the suggestion). Just when we were exploring how to do …
