Opportunity

“Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.” – Thomas Edison.

Okay, so were not usually a re-quoter. In fact, I don’t think we have ever used one on the redbpower Facebook page or Twitter. But, have you seen Edison’s  beautiful, industrial lab where, in fact, the light bulb was invented? I skimmed through some articles and found some pretty amazing stuff that applies to the process of design and to business, actually the process of really anything worthwhile.

And, back to the lab. It is such cool place… especially knowing that it provided a space for intelligence + creativity to manifest itself, makes it that much more a thing of beauty.

And, now… back to your regularly scheduled Friday. Hoping it’s a good one!

The Camera

This film is quiescent, peaceful, uncluttered, beautifully shot, and gorgeously edited.  Plus, it’s a great story. Entirely shot within a budget 50 dollars (including props).

The Camera (short film / original score) from Peter Lewis on Vimeo.

“… this is my first film. I made it because I love all the different aspects of moviemaking, because I was tired of my fear of failure, and because I wanted to see what would happen if I just finished one.” – Peter Lewis

He speaks of overcoming his fear of failure in this interview. His wisdom and words are inspiring.
