Bad Weather

Click to Play

So this summer I've been working for a sound company and I have to say I love my job. It has its ups and downs like anything but at the end of the day its awesome. Somedays we know its going to be rough. This weekend half of our crew was running on no sleep for over 24 hrs and the other half averaged around 2hrs when we had to set up for the next show. We were out in the middle of a field and the day started when our semi full of sound equipment got stuck and we had to do a truck to truck transfer to even get gear to stage (we still started on time). We could have done without the E1 (I have no idea what that means-but thats what the news says) hurricane that passed through. This shot is of our LD Yogi holding a tent down after it cleared up enough for me to take a hand of the tarp I was protecting a soundboard with.

Development Class

Little video taken during the break of our development class. The professor is one of the sharpest, most caring, and active people I know in the development world. She has really helped me think people can make a difference in the world. This video wouldn't have been possible without the gracious donation of cold medicine from www.davehuth.com. Day 4 for videoblogging week 2009.

Priorities

Video for day one of videoblogging week 2009. Had to curb the enthusiasm because I had a 10 page paper to write. Pretty much only had time to sloppily animate the logo.

Train

Click to Play

The reason I haven't been vlogging very much is because I haven't had time this semester. I'm working on an independent study in MAYA tho and I thought I would share a bit of it. Another student and I are trying to figure out how to make our final project. This is a test render in After Effects with a Train we created as part of our exercises.

Inauguration!

A quick video of my experience at the inauguration. I drove down with two of my friends from New York to DC to witness it in person. Fantastic time and well worth dealing with the crowds. Music by: Gurdonark. www.ccmixter.net

Existentialism

Very possibly the strangest thing that I've ever made. I'll tell you what its about if you ask. Thanks to David Howell for letting me use his video as a large piece of this project. Check out the non-mashed up version of "Falling Slowly" at his website. It's very beautiful. http://www.davidhowellstudios.com/ Music: morgantj "Existentialism" www.ccmixter.org

Antarctica Crew

Some of the crew moments from my recent trip to Antartica. Nothing special and I can't imagine all that interesting to anyone who wasn't there :). But... a taste of the life I lived for a month on a ship with the Irish!

I've been mysteriously absent from posting mainly because I spent the last month helping with a production in Antarctica. There is more coming but I have to finish up my missed school work first. In the meantime here is a video that I made summarizing the trip for credit.

Happiness

Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it. ~Fyodor Dostoevsky Special thanks to everyone who agreed to let me interview them.
