I now know the pain of my graphic design friends, who are asked to work for free. Yes, I have camera equipment (perhaps too much, but that's a debate for a different day), and yes, advertising is something I'm looking into, but I don't appreciate being asked to make a commercial for free simply because I already have the equipment. Editing takes forever, I have...

I've decided to do a limited time public showing of my short film "Inheritance" online. It will only be up until June 9th, and yes, I know this is some shameless self-promotion.

Eating some wings, and watching "Hot Fuzz".

I was going to take a photo of the wings, but I ate them before I remembered to take a photo. Oh well.

All in all, this week was a good one. Managed to salvage and redesign some camera gear, figured out how to shoot green screen, and I passed my first attempt at an online course with an A (I still hate online courses).

Now to apply for a high paying job that I'm actually qualified for, and is only about 10 minutes away from where I...

While I've never considered entering a gameshow, or considering my cooking ability to be a potential career path, I've decided to apply for the show "Chopped". I can't enter as a professional, but I'm going to try as an amateur.

From time to time, I have some compulsive behaviors. Last night, around midnight, my wonderful mind decided to figure out a possible way to build a new camera dolly to accommodate the newer, heavier camera setup I'm using in my films. Of course, I'm missing some parts, and some tools, and seeing how my debit card is scratched to hell, I have to wait until...

To date, I've made 9 films (8 shorts, and 1 feature length), and while most of them are examples of how I had no idea what I was doing, I finally made one that I was proud enough to show off. I submitted them to a ton of festivals in the short category, and so far, everyone has told me "no" because it's too long....

Tonight, there's a fireworks show outside my workplace. Naturally, my job has decided that we should keep our building open for an extra five hours (which is about 1 hour past the end of the fireworks show), so that people can use our bathrooms. This means I have the distinct privilege of sitting at a desk, and telling people where to find our bathrooms for...

I'm skinny, but there's a reason for it.

Taking into consideration that I'm on the short side, grumpy, hairy, I have a gravelly voice, and a heavy smoking habit, if I were to bulk up, the Wolverine comparisons would be endless. Come to think of it, I already get that comparison from some people.

In that case: I'd like to announce my candidacy for when...

Okay, more like 10 minutes ago, and in my apartment...

I just finished watching the Original Star Wars Trilogy with commentary, and after listening to Ben Burtt talk about his sound design work, I want to take all of my audio equipment, and start building my own sound effects library for my films.

Time for any audio based journey!
