Yesterday’s shoot was fun. Interns got the crap kicked out of them by a girl, I shot a lot of footage, got everything I needed to finish 2 new FRAMELINES clips, and I uploaded a ton of commercials. Then I taught a class. in between, got some of my finances Read more…
Gonna get a couple shoots in today. I’m remaking some old videos from the HORRORS OF WAR educational vids. Those were done in standard definition, plus used the movie for examples of concepts. I want to custom shoot scenarios to make the examples more original and unique. Several of my Read more…
Because I obsess over things like webstats, I stumble upon links to what I do in the strangest of places. I’m always blown away when I see the instructional videos being used at actual educational institutions. Last night I found the 180 Degree Rule being used in the curriculum by Read more…
Breaking my rule of no buying of Blu Rays with IRON MAN 3 today. Love the movie, have all the Marvel movies, so this is a no brainer, plus I know I’m going to watch it more than once. I won’t even buy any bargain blu rays anymore. Not until Read more…
I guess I could blog about the flaws of the American medical system. Or complain that I feel far worse the day after leaving the hospital. Or that I got a literal bandaid to deal with a life threatening problem because my life wasn’t being threatened at the exact moment Read more…
So today I’m checking myself into the hospital. The infections reached a lymph node and a fever started, so let’s just say I’m not doing well and there’s not a lot of debate as to the seriousness of where my body is taking me. No one needs to force me Read more…
Got the two shoots done yesterday. Quick lighting setup, dolly rigged up and some practice runs of the pan and move. Hammered through this entirely improvised bit of video and it was done. Did one thing for FRAMELINES and another video blog that will provide some content filler for the Read more…
Wrapping up this giant client project is taking forever. I thought it would be done before now, so I took on two classes this week to teach. Good lord, combine that with MRSA kicking my ass, and your faithful narrator feels much like the poo of a sick goat with Read more…
Working and two classes to teach at the same time. It makes for stress and a side order of additional stress. Teaching requires being “[i]on[/i]”, as in I feel like I expend a spiritual energy and let it emanate from my pores and burns like a light. Making sure that Read more…
Taught a brand new class, plus it was my first day back after nearly a month off from the school. I exorcised some demons, as I made fun of myself more often than not. Strangely that felt good. Teaching makes me feel great. Sharing a passion I have for the Read more…
Got to Wadsworth, my old hometown, on schedule. Dropped off some DVD’s to the local TV station, ate Marie’s Pizza, and went to the park that was once the wild, untamed world I used to call “The Woods”. Thank god I’ve gotten in much better shape, as I traipsed through Read more…
A little bit of balance came back into my world yesterday. Friday night I broke my expensive and still-new-to-me bed. Saturday it was fixed, got a brand spankin’ new window installed in the bedroom (that was long overdue), and whilst waiting for these things, I worked on an edit. I Read more…
