a very random entry.

It feels like it's been ten billion years since I last posted anything, so here goes. I've finally got a new camera and it is amazing! I really needed one because the camera I had was just way too old, as in it's probably older than me. I'll also be transferring to a four year university and beginning my final two years with a major in FILM! I'm going to try to pursue a double major in theatre as well.

So, big plans. I think the holdiday season is going to be the death of me. Everything has to get finished around that time of year, you'd think life was going to end when the clock strikes twelve on December 31st. I don't think the craze has ended with the ringing in of the new year, however. Just with applying to a new college, starting school, general work, my sister moving out of the house, BBirthdays, and just the chaos of life in general.

Other than that I will also be directing a music video for Jennifer Grassman's either in the spring or summer of this year. It will be in the Houston area so it will be nice to see old family and friends again. www.jennifergrassman.com You can find more information on the video shoot on her website.

STS: The Problem With Pogos

Here's a Trailer for the Original star Trek Series spoof I worked on (as in: directed, produced, set, costumes, filming, writing, lighting, animation, and acting). Lindsay was a wonderful secretary, I needed someone to organize dates for me.

music video

So, I haven't written in a really long time, and I mean, a really long time. Things have been going pretty much like clockwork, I finished shooting a star trek spoof before the summer was out, school started, I have an editing dadline in a week, and a top secret music video that I will be shooting in the spring of next year.
I'm planning on getting a new camera for this upcoming music video shoot (something that I desperately need), and if I budget right everything should go smoothly. If you live in the Houston area you can be in the video, it's for Jennifer Grassman's- The Haunting. (check her out: www.jennifergrassman.com, www.youtube.com/user/JenniferGrassman . She recently won a Houston Press Award for Best Keyboardist and opened for Grammy winner Jon Vesner. Anyway, it should be booking.
Other than film and school stuff I fave finally gotten a new phone, something that was much overdue.

So, to begin, Lindsay and I have been working on cleaning up the apartment and building pieces to the set. I'm amazed at how much Lindsay has done actually, I built only two consoles (which will be mounted on the walls) and she built three and painted them. There is still plenty for me to do however, I have been storyboarding the script, which is a lot more work than it sounds like.
I'm aiming to start filming the actual production of my skit in early July and I'm glad to have a good cast on board.
I'm also going through the editing process with Jennifer Grassman's (www.jennifergrassman.com) music video Bedroom Door. I can't quite decide how I want it's overall appearance to look, I was going to go with an antique sort of look but I could also go with an unsaturated somber sort of blue look. Either way I go it all is about the music and Bedroom Door is a beautiful piece of music. Make sure you check out her music!

First Blog <----innovative title

OK, so I have never really blogged before (actually, this is the first official "blog" I've ever had) and there is a slight chance that I won't keep up with it too well. "cough, cough".

Basically I'm hoping that here I can have kind of a centralized location where I can post blogs/blog photos of my creative endeavors, artwork, etc, without having them strewn all over the cybernetic universe. I think that it's part of the artistic temperament to be disorganized. Actually, I'm not really disorganized, I know where everything is when I need it, just no one else does. (Example: Q- "where was that booklet?" A-"It's in the general vicinity of the computer desk under a heap of crap and probably a cat."). So, if you want to feel like you're on Fallout 3 my apartment is the place to hang, ha! ha! I'm just joshing, Megaton is much cleaner than my apartment.
