Next on ESPN 8 THE OCHO!

I have successfully made Lucas Sutter laugh out loud at one of my announcements check it out and let me know what you think:



By the way, yes it is supposed to be cheesy.

All my friends think that i'm gone but i swear... i'm just at work

Well the days have arrived, today is the first day of men's conference and i'm going to have a late night with a lot of work. In order to be more manly i have boycotted shaving and in order to try and relax (and stop my ulcers) i have purchased two "b-relaxed" vitamin waters. Unfortunately there are co-workers or diabolical elves that raid our fridge and indulge themselves on items that clearly don't belong to them. Due to this issue, my friend Lucas often has to write stern emails and label his items with stickers, i prefer a more comedic approach. I made my own label for my reserve vitamin water. It is labeled as such:

b-relaxed
jackfruit - guava (b + theanine)
Please do not manhandle or consume this beverage that is obviously not yours. Though this drink is called "b-relaxed", i will b-quite the opposite if anyone other than myself drinks this. As a matter of fact i will b-aggravated, b-furious, or even b-on-a-rampage to find the culprit.
During this event of late night hours and stressful deadlines, an extra help is needed to b-relaxed. Thank you for your cooperation.

Well if i survive the night or even weekend, i will be a stronger man. May friends i wish you well and good luck exploring the infinite abyss.

In the future everyone will be famous for 29.97 frames

Well kiddies, it looks like the men's conference portion of this blog is just about done. My deadline is tomorrow and i've just about completed all three. All i'm waiting on is my 3D render for the logo, from there it's just replacing the ugly .psd version for it and adding in the text for the lower 3rd's. This is all jargon so i'll shut up and let you see the directors cut version of everything:
Here is Friday

Here is Saturday's first

and lastly Saturday's closer

Let me know what you think, all comments are welcome I think i can even handle some criticism. I know the videos aren't as nice looking as the rest have been, i was rushed so i didn't get to really spend time exporting. When i get some time i'll export them in a lot better quality. 'Til then, good luck exploring the infinite abyss.

Born of a Broken Man: Stainless Man 3 [Lou takes a dive]

Okay, despite ulcer problems, and final cut unexpectedly quitting*, here's the rough for the Saturday first session of Stainless Man. Please excuse the absence of his audio, like I said the editing program quit and though his audio was saved, i have to go back, import and realign it all again; as well as all the color corrections, unfortunately those were not saved.


While I go back and do everything over again, good luck exploring the infinite abyss.

*Unexpectedly quitting means that my autosave doesn't help me, because i did too much during that time, that reverting back would be a waste of my time.

Omigod! Omigod you guys!

Here's the progress for day two. Finished Friday's editing, just waiting to add text and graphics. Tonight Mar and James will be helping me film Aaron and Lou for the Saturday announcements.

Also Here is a funny video of James screaming "Oh My G*D" or at least that's what it looks like to me.

Enjoy, and good luck exploring the infinite abyss.

It's Not Too Beautiful: Day One Edits

Alright here it is as promised, day one of editing for this years Stainless Man. I doubt any of you really know what that is. Put simply it's the announcements for the men's conference. This is what I was able to accomplish today while keeping my sanity. It's mostly rough cuts, and rough audio fixes. There is also a temp track for music because I plan to make my own for it if I have time. I don't want to keep you waiting any longer, so here you go. Please let me know what you think.



Until next time, good luck exploring the infinite abyss.

Feel the Burn: or Stainless Man [Part One]

Yesterday we started filming for this years men's conference announcements. We didn't quite finish and we'll be going back on Thursday. I'd like to say a big thank you to Lou, James, Alex, Aaron and everyone who missed us while we were filming. Up until the conference (Feb. 22nd and 23rd) I'm going to try and export and post the progress of this years Stainless Man. Hopefully you all will enjoy seeing how everything comes together. This is just about done rendering, so check back tonight to see todays progress. As always until then, good luck exploring the infinite abyss.
