Active Ethernet Ports

There really is nothing like the cool yet active green LED blink of an active connection, is there?  Great image to use for any PC, Networking or Tech related article.

This cinemagraph was created using footage from my free stock footage blog, Beachfront B-Roll.

Meter Needle

This meter was one of the first clips I recorded for the stock footage blog.  That was almost 3 years ago (from the time of THIS posting).  Looping this was quite fun, and actually pretty easy.  The chaotic movement of the needle made finding a transition point simple (I practically guessed!).

A Computer Hard Drive

Perfect for the tech blogger,  I shot this clip with a macro lens and only the light from my Nexus 7 tablet.  Had a lot of fun doing it.  I think this is one of those "true" Cinemagraphs too. Considering all of the moving parts a hard drive has, I chose to only move the actuator arm.  I think it works pretty well since the motion blur from the spinning platters and spindle gives the illusion that the drive is still in motion anyway.

A Cassette Tape

Another great one.  I originally shot this clip when I was geeking out over the movie "Guardians of the Galaxy".  If you are late to the game and are still reviewing the film, this may be the perfect blog header or pagebreak for you.  If you are fluent in Photoshop, you can also add whatever text you'd like to the tape label.
