Darktown

So I got my version of the first two scenes written out this morning. Not bad if I do say so myself. Tomorrow afternoon I am going to meet with Frank so that we can compare versions as well as cut and paste what we think will work or not work. Good progress though. Now that that is established we will need to figure out what our goal is for the first episode beyond setting the stage for the series. hmmm...so many decisions.

Darktown

Frank and I met today to work on our thesis. Things are looking up and up. I like it. Character bio's are to be posted soon for others to look at and enjoy the descriptions. Been a while since I have posted on here. Between my mother dieing, getting an internship, and then working on thesis, and then one of my grandfathers dieing, it has been a hectic summer. Go figure hmm? No time for rest or grief yet. Maybe some day I can. But for now I have to focus on work to keep me going. So, here's to those that follow this blog, and I hope that you are enjoying your summer wonderful readers. Remember, the more you work towards your dreams, they can come true.

Long time

I know its been a while since I have been on here. I know I am horrible. Besides that though, things have been really busy and good. Did some work earlier this semester that I am proud of. Wrapping it up now working on getting all my ADR in its right place. My last project ot go to festival did not get picked up. Sad face, but I am moving on and so I am uploading it now to Youtube for all to see. I think that I am going to check out Vimeo as well. I understand that they offer free accounts and what have you. We shall see how that works out. Finished my next short film script. So I get to start story boarding that this weekend and start animating it over the weekend as well. Should have the storyboards up here some time next week for anyone to drop in and see. In fact though, I don't think that anyone follows this blog yet. Oh well, I like talking to myself, so that is ok. If you do read this blog, don;t be scared to drop a comment or give feedback on works.

Props

So I started buying material today for props to build for the semesters works. good god damn am I glad that I started now. This shit is going to be pricey. thank christ for paper being cheap. Got my books in to study, and one for leisure. Started screening more films as well. watched some new shit (too crapy to mention) going to start watching theghost house productions presents body, so that I know exactly what I am up against. Soon I will start pricing material for that ball of wax. those props are going to take me all summer to collect for my final work.

Work

So I had another gig with 3ball productions over the weekend. That was frigging awesome! What do I love more then my job? My wife. Beyond that work is like winning the lottery and drinking at the same time. At least till I get off of work and crash for a few days from working my ass off. Besides that I love this shit! I am so glad that I am paying out the nose for this peace of paper...I think...I hope. From what I understand it means nearly jack shit in my field. It's all about skill. I guess that knowledge can help though. The real answer won't come till I have graduated and can't ask for my money back. lol

Video Copilot

I can not believe how little I have been using after effects now. lol. after watching hours of tutorials it makes me feel like I was just looking at the surface and poking it with a stick. Many more hours of tutorials to go and lots of practice, but at least now I got ideas and understanding of some great digital methods to help work around stuff.
