In this video, Larry Vickers breaks down the alleyway scene from the Michael Mann film ‘Collateral’, where Tom Cruise’s character neutralizes two drug addicts who steal his briefcase.
Osprey has been publishing indispensable reference books for decades and now they are revamping the look of both the ‘Aircraft of Aces’ and ‘Combat Aircraft’ series. One I am looking forward to is this latest study of A-10 use in Operation Enduring Freedom.
Hyde Definition’s PenCott BadLands and GreenZone camouflage patterns are featured in the latest season of ‘House of Cards’. The full release can be read below, and beware, there are some spoilers:
Hyde Definition’s cutting-edge PenCott-BadLands™ and PenCott-GreenZone™ camouflage patterns continue to show up in interesting places – this time they are featured in Season 3 of the award-winning Netflix drama “House of Cards”.
Caution, this announcement carries a SPOILER ALERT…
Seen in a crucial and dramatic segment of Season 3; PenCott™ camouflage patterns are seen in use by ‘Russian’ soldiers taking part in a peacekeeping mission in the Middle East. The Russian soldiers are seen wearing BadLands™ uniforms, whereas GreenZone™ uniforms are worn by the Russian officers and by Russian President Petrov. All of the PenCott camouflage uniforms used are the CPU (Combat Patrol Uniform) model made by Polish company Helikon-Tex.
In the latter part of Chapter 36, US President Underwood and Russian President Petrov hold a secret meeting in the Jordan Valley to try and resolve a crisis concerning the peacekeeping mission there. In the segment President Underwood (played by Emmy Award winning actor Kevin Spacey) wears an OCP/MultiCam ACU, and President Petrov (played by Danish actor Lars Mikkelsen – renowned for his roles in ‘The Killing’ and ‘Sherlock’) wears a GreenZone™ CPU.
As real Russian Army ‘Digital-Flora’ uniforms are hard to come by, the ‘House of Cards’ costume department selected GreenZone™ and BadLands™ pattern uniforms as stand-ins. Together with help from their retail partners, and with MMI Textiles also helping to supply some spare fabric, Hyde Definition and Helikon-Tex were able to rapidly assemble the sizes and quantities of uniforms and caps that were needed and deliver them in time to meet a tight filming schedule.
This series of videos by ZEV Technologies showcases their professional series of firearms. The story behind the scenes is just as cool as the action. In this second episode, we get to see pro shooter KC Eusebio do his thing.
In early 2014, ZEV Technologies partnered with one of the industry’s most reputable production houses, Brain Farm, during the ZEV PRC event – hosted by Deliberate Dynamics.
Through the course of this event, Brain Farm and ZEV captured the perfection that ZEV provides to its customers every day with its products; this video features professional shooter, KC Eusebio running his ZEV built competition pistol.
The partnership between ZEV and Brain Farm is now coming to light – with the release of a series of videos captured during that time. The videos highlight ZEV’s top tier products, and Brain Farm’s incredible visual effects and cinematography.
Stay tuned to this video series through ZEV and Brain Farm’s social media and website.

Shocked? So were test audiences resulting in the scene we all know. Apparently, it was later used as a dream sequence in 2008’s “Rambo”.
