Just Another Blogger

Well, post election, I have to say that blogging is not nearly as fun. Now I am just another douche bag that has absolutely nothing to say but chooses to write about it anyway. I need a topic, or a theme... I will think on this. But now it seems forced... the internal struggle continues.

Anyway, Carpoolers is fun to make, and I think we will try a few more episodes. Future episodes will be shorter (I will try to keep them in the 3 minute range), as that is what seems acceptable for the internet. Nobody wants to see a married couple chatting about their day for 10 minutes. That's why we moved out of our parents house, right...

I have some other video and graphics ideas in my head that I should really pursue. I really enjoy editing, as well as creating graphics and animations in Photoshop, AfterEffects, etc. I also mess around with Flash quite a bit, and do a lot of interactive stuff with it at work. I need to brush up on my ActionScript though, because if I knew it better I could do so much more. Anyway, I have some animation courses coming up later this winter and early spring that should be fun, and hopefully inspiring. I really enjoy design; I just hope it is a recession proof occupation.

I am looking forward to the holidays! Erin and I leave for MN 2 weeks from today...

Carpoolers Episode 1

Well, we did it. Carpoolers lives. It is a bit long but we will refine future episodes. This was a lot of fun to make!

If you follow the link to Youtube, you can watch it in higher quality.
