Sorry for the delay on new posts. I just moved into a new apartment in Richmond VA where I will be living for the next 3 months while I work at an internship this summer.

I doubt the internet needs another review of Iron Man, but I saw it twice (once with my girlfriend and once with my parents on mother’s day weekend). Plain and simple, I loved it. I might be a huge tech geek and a even bigger comic geek, but I feel it was an enjoyable movie for everyone. My parents found it entertaining and my mom doesn’t know how to work her digital camera and my dad could care less who Nick Fury is (although I made them stay past the credits for that tid bit of awesomeness).

My only complaint (its minor, no worries), is that it could have used more of Iron Man kicking ass. And no, I don’t mean more scenes of him duking it out with the Iron Monger (Stane’s suit). I want like a good solid 10 min of him owning some non armored villains. Some puny humans that he can just stomp and throw around.

If you haven’t already, go see it. Its worth the money.

I created a new page with links to my movies. as of now it has the wild west video (first big animation project), both version of my final project, and a silly snowboarding movie I made with video clips from this season.

For our final project for digital media 222, we have to create a surreal animation. This is my rough cut. I have two different background songs playing, the first (and one I am leaning towards is MGMT- Kids. Its just the beginning of the song looped over and over. The second song is Death Cab for Cutie- I Will Possess Your Heart, which had an awesomely long intro, so it needed no fiddling with to work with the animation.

….cept i just realized that wordpress won’t let me upload video till I buy a space upgrade. ownd.

so while i figure out when I can get to a campus library to upload these vids faster, check out my last big project for the class.

ARTS 222 Project

After some finagling, I finally got everything to look (somewhat) the way I want it to. Might change things later as more time frees up in between finals. Hopefully I can post some of my animation and digital work here.

All thats left for tonight is to drive a bus from 9:45-1am and then cram for the rest of the night for a cs test tomorrow.

Ooh, new avatar! Its taken from Paul Robertson’s blog (hope thats ohkay). I really enjoy his work and actually took inspiration from his pixel art for my digital media final project.
