This is the first post that I’ve done in a little over a month. I’ve been busy!
Here’s a break down.
First and foremost I’ve been working more. I picked up five jobs from Turnhere, whom I get freelance video work through. For what I have to do the money is alright. I would prefer to make a little more but I’m not going to complain about it in this economy. I’ve been putting my time into video tutorials as I like to do. The ones I’ve been focusing on as of late have been custom Flash video player and Action Script 3 as well as honing my CSS skills. I’m really starting to understand it now. I can actually read and visualize the code. It’s pretty neat! Also, I’ve been looking into becoming the videographer for the Rose City Rollers Portland Roller Derby. It would be a pretty sweet gig. I’m not going to hold my breath, but my brother is an MC for them so i sort of have an in.
So… I’ve now built 3 websites. One for myself (which will be changing soon as I change my company name), one for Lukas Ketner (which needs a few little tweaks and then it will go live) and one for Ryan Dain (which will go live once everything is ready to go. A couple months most likely). I’m now also building a site for The Free Box a portland web series that I’m now acting as producer for. The site is in the design stages and will probably be ready to go live in the next week or two. I will also be helping to design and create the first volume DVD of the show. This means I will hep to create the DVD menu and the package art. I’m also going to through down an attempt at writing an episode or ideas for them to implement in the show: Gags, Scenes, Dialogue, etc…
And to top off what I’ve been doing.
I’ve been working on getting my bass chops back in an attempt to be the bass player for my buddies project. I’ve jammed with him a couple times now, the last time being a couple days ago, and we play really well together. Our musical tastes and styles mix really well and our general personalities are a good fit too. Basically at this point I have to play for his producer and see what he thinks. If I can convince him that I’m a rock star, then I will be a rock star! That would be a great accomplishment for the year.
Until next time
