Lights, Camera… F###!!!

Decided to start off 2012 with something different, I have a feeling this year is going to be a creative explosion.

Late last year my brother-in-law came to me asked me to help him on his album. (The fact that I’m critical about everything gives people the impression that I know a) better b) what I’m doing… which is false.)  So anyways, he sent me 18 tracks he wanted to be on his third album… after some discussion we managed to trim it down to 11.

Next up he asked me to shoot a short video for him, he wanted a gritty work out video.  We developed a concept and shot most of it in two hrs…  at one location.  It went pretty well, apart from forgetting to press record a couple times, getting shaky hands, and being totally unacquainted with the camera.  You see I thought the hard part was going to be shooting it, then I started the editing process and want to bash my head against the wall repeatedly.  First I loved it, then I hated it, then I told myself I sucked, then I was tired and confused, then I reshoot a couple scenes and settled on this realization… I’m not Steven F. Spielberg, so chill the hell out.

Overal it was a fun experience… tons of lows, some highs, and I’m happy I took part.  With out further ado… here’s the video.

Hmmmm… I lied

Back in March of 2010 I wrote the following on one of my blog post “I’m making a conscience effort to stop wasting money on cell phones… right after I get the Xperia X10.  That will be my last phone till my 30th birthday, unless it breaks”

Well I’m roughly 10 months away from my 30th birthday and the hunt has started.  My phone for the most part isn’t broken, I’m just having some annoying issues with the battery life.  I have my eyes set on the HTC Raider…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now, I’ve been getting flack from the usual iPhone pundits but I will never succumb to their pressure.

If using a “fork” to eat “soup” is wrong and inefficient, I don’t want to be right… that or I’ll use a spork but never a spoon. (If you’re lost… Spoons are iPhones because they’re allegedly superior and Android devices are forks. Whats a spork?? I think it’s an HTC Raider)
