Wind and Rain
June 6th, 2010A follow-up to last week’s video (Water, Sky, and Trees) — I tried to sort of make a juxtaposition between the two videos. For example, last week’s video had sunny scenes for video, but the song was ‘The Rain Song,’ and this week it’s rainy scenes for video, and the song is ‘Sun King.’
Margins and Padding
June 6th, 2010They say content is king, but you might as well write about putting bed sheets on fir trees if it’s hard to get to the important bits: the content. People just aren’t going to want to come back to your website, or read more if your content is unappealing, and/or it’s too much hassle to navigate around.

Let’s Speed Things Up
May 22nd, 2010Things have been moving slowly around here for a while, and I wish they hadn’t, but that’s the nature of the beast. It’s not easy to come up with original or unique content consistently, at least for me at this point in time. So, to combat that, I’ve decided that I’d like to have at least one new blog post per week, and at least one new video per week (which I will most likely host on both YouTube and Vimeo, the latter being my preference). I know, you shouldn’t rush ‘art’, but I need to get into a groove where it starts to come naturally — like conditioning myself or something. I’ve had some ideas in my head for another short film, but I’m not sure how to go about achieving those shots.. time will tell.
New Films
May 3rd, 2010I have a couple of new films that I made with my new Flip Ultra HD, which is awesome, to say the least. I recommend viewing the Vimeo ones in HD by clicking “vimeo” in each respective video player. They are Adventure to Walmart, Midnight Lights, and Cloud Lapse; check ‘em out:
