Man, this took way too long to get done. I worked on it all yesterday and almost all of today, probably over 18 hours total. I couldn't figure out why it was taking so long. Then I looked at the final product: it's double the length of the Hero Tribe camp video. Why is it longer? Probably because I think the Villains are a funnier group and there's ( Read more... )

So I got bored after doing my reading tonight, so I took some pictures of the new additions to my room. So yeah, enjoy the nerdiness.

So I'm back with another Survivor Flatland update. I'm sure you're all excited about this. Today's update shows the Hero Tribe arriving at their camp to a banquet of stuff. We also learn how much Han Solo really drinks and what the favorite past time of the heroes is. Exciting stuff, I know. This clip took me a little time, but not too much really ( Read more... )

So as some of you know, I've been wanting a Wii since before it was called that (back in the Revolution days when we still didn't know much about the controller). I couldn't afford it last semester. I could this one though. I couldn't find one though, and I spent pretty much every free moment (i.e. moments when I wasn't in class or working on ( Read more... )

I've been working somewhat on the larger next clip, but in a few hours this afternoon/evening, I pulled together a credits video. It lists the people who provided voices (and what voices they did), people who helped me out in one way or another, then does the legal mumbo jumbo. The tune I put to it is Mr. Big's Theme by the DCMC in Mother 3, not ( Read more... )

So class got cancelled today (supposedly because of snow, but I didn't see much of that), so I worked on and finished the footage I promised for Thursday. It's the final bit of the el Rio de Fuego. I'm fairly glad to be done with it as that lava background was really starting to bother me. Now I get to be bored with the Hero Tribe Camp background! ( Read more... )

As promised, here's the second part of the Villain Tribe going down the lava river. It's only about half the length of the last one, but it took almost as long (thanks a lot figures who don't go well on blue or green screen). I'd write more, but I need to get reading for classes tomorrow. Enjoy.

I know I haven't been updating as much (if at all) since I got back to Dallas. For this I must apologize. I've been busy, between school, reading, working on Survivor Flatland, and trying to find a Nintendo Wii (note to people I know: if you find a Wii, tell me where as I've been using all my internet skills without luck). I don't really have much ( Read more... )

So waiting in my held mail was a Christmas/New Year's card from my Japanese host family. Inside it had 9 pictures from my time there (some from the first week, some from the last week). I thought I'd share them with you guys. Below are the pictures and the front of the card (which I think is sort of neat). Enjoy.

I thought I would update to say I'm back in Dallas now. I got back on Wednesday. Classes start on Monday. Not so much fun, but I'll live. I'll probably be pretty busy a good deal of the time though ( Read more... )
