Fireproof = giffable / May 13, 2014 by Melvin Montalban

One of my favourite types of animated gifs are wiggle stereoscopy, also known as wiggle 3D or wiggle gifs. We shot Jimblah's Fireproof music video using two DSLRs side-by-side to create the effect, and here are a few of my favourite shots, in all their infinitely looping glory -

White Rabbit Gallery visit / May 4, 2014 by Melvin Montalban

Dropped in to see the new exhibition Reformation at White Rabbit Contemporary Chinese Art Collection in Chippendale. This is a suspended cathedral made entirely from bondage gear.

Kylie's Beach, Crowdy Bay National Park

At some point in the distant past, I vowed I would never blog.

I now play a fun game where I see how much I can disappoint past-me.

INSTASPAM

It's a little bit lazy to try and funnel my Instagram onto here and still call it a "blog". Yet here I am, attempting to do just that.

New work for Samsung x Netball Australia, swipe to watch.

This one was a bit of a brain-buster to piece together, so thanks to everyone below for the hustle. Also big thanks to Tani for letting me get some sleep only two weeks after the kid was born so that I could attempt previsualising all these camera match moves 🙃

Say hello to Javier Lambert Montalban, born June 22, 4.2 kg. Chillest dude we know. Warrior mama Tani is well and healthy too.
After arriving at the hospital at 6:54pm, Javi joined us only 2 minutes later - the last pic of the pink sign celebrates his actual birthplace. Way to make an entrance buddy. ❤️❤️❤️

Today we are at 39 weeks (though this pic is from a couple of months back) and I can't wait for life to flip in about a week or so. Shout out to my babymama ladywife for high-achieving this pregnancy, just like with everything else you do.
.
Some of you already know the story, but a little over 3 years ago, the exact same week we started trying to fall pregnant, we also got Tani's cancer diagnosis. It's been quite the wait, and a lot has happened since then to get the little guy here, and all of it due to her strength and spirit 🖤🖤
