Say Hello to Bucky
This unassuming silver brick is the latest addition to Obscura Labs’ collective equipment. This might not seem all that impressive, except that unlike most unassuming bricks, this one happens to be a 2TB hard drive with Firewire 400, 800, and eSATA. *pause for me to enjoy my geek goosebumps* We now have the capacity to capture HD footage for multiple projects! First up? Greedy Little Fingers! We’re hoping to capture the footage from the first GLF shoot in the coming weeks and then get cracking on a trailer to give you all a sneak peek of what we’re working on.
Now of course, a drive isn’t a drive on my workstation unless it has a proper name. I have a thumb drive named “Skippy”, a 250GB hard drive named “Aneurysm”, and this new addition I have dubbed “Bucky” after scientist, engineer, poet, semanticist, and all around super genius,Buckminster Fuller. May this drive hold as much information and aid in giving birth to as many beautiful things as it’s human namesake.
