Knife technique – how to chop like a pro

November 30, 2008

Do you grip a knife like a club? Do your tomato wedges fall apart in seedy clumps? Recent Top Chef winner Hung Huynh visited with Grub Street at Dani yesterday to demonstrate his famous knife skills. The quicksilver cook showed how to julienne squash and a speedy way to slice meat. Definitely try this at home. But first, watch the video. By Josh Ozersky, Video by Sarah Lohman

Check out this stunning photography set by photographer Cedric Delsaux. Really nice photos of Star Wars characters shot in a modern Parisian setting. Shame about his duff flash web site though. Enjoy.

Gremlins 3 fan film

September 1, 2008

In the middle of the movie Gremlins 2, there is a sequence where the film seems to break, and where the gremlins invade the projection booth. For the VHS edition in the early 90’s, they reshot a special sequence where the VHS tape seemed to be torn apart and in which the gremlins invaded a John Wayne movie. The DVD just kept the original theatrical version.
This is the alternate sequence I made, supposed to replace the theatrical one on the DVD.
