GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Thursday, Aug 23, 2007

That's right, guys! In an amazing moment of random and hyper, I created my very first video blog! Hurray! Unfortunately, I made it way to long to post as one video (I lose track of time pretty quickly! ), so I had to break it down into two parts. And this, of course, led to a frustrating crash course in video editing. I think I did okay editing this. There's a part near the end of part 2 when I effed up the editing, but it's still okay, I think.

So, here's part 1!

And part 2!

i like the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy series of books and by the way recently it's been getting a bit cold from below the ground. That hasn't got anything to do with you getting a job has it?

@ Steppin: I hope you do!

@ Daemon: Yeah, my sister and I have the thickest hair in our entire family. My hair has been known to jam hair clippers! I'm not kidding!

@ pigfish: .... Maybe. >_> *shifty eyes*

@ Matt: Glad you liked it! I'll make the second one as soon as I can, which means it might be a while. (Not because of my job or schoolwork, but because I'm a chronic procrastinator! )

Nice video... If it's any consolation, when I play online PC shooters, I always get shot before I start shooting... To date, I have only shot ONE guy to death, that's it!

When you pulled out your art, I was expecting stick figures... so I was prepared for the worst when I saw Alma, and it wasn't that bad... You draw better than most people I know. You made a great video blog. Like matty said, it wasn't boring.

@ Freaky: Yeah, your experience sounds kinda like mine. 9 times out of 10 when I start up a new map in HL2 Deathmatch, some guy runs up and blows my brains out with either a .357 or the crossbow!

Yeah, no matter how good a piece of artwork is, the artist always sees something wrong with it. When I look at my Alma picture, I see at least 50 different things I could've changed or improved. I'm not sure why we think like that, we just do. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it! When I was editing it and watched the final cut, I thought, "Dang, this is stupid! This might be a bad idea!" But I'm glad to see so many people liked it! It's a big morale boost!

You remind me of a young Jim Carrey, good blog start, very lively. I swear, some video blogs out there put me to sleep. Good book choice, I haven´t read the Hitchhikers series yet, but it is on the top of my list, no it is true I got a list of SF books to read:

1. The Hitchhikers´ Guide To The Galaxy by Douglas Adams 2. Foundation by Issac Asimov (I ended up reading the entire "Trilogy of Trantor" plus some of this sequels and prequels, I had to stop, it was getting ridiculous)

3. Against a Dark Background by Ian Banks 4. The Demolished Man by Alfred Bester (read)

5. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (read)

6. Ender´s Game by Orson Scott Card (read)

7. Downbelow Station by C.J. Cherryh

8. Childhood´s End by Arthur C. Clarke

9. The Man in the High Castle by Phillip K. Dick (read)

10. The Man Who Used The Universe by Alan Dean Forter

11. Neuromancer by William Gibsom

12. Starshio Troopers by Robert Heimlein (this book inspired the idea of batlle armor aka Master Chief)

13. Dune by Frank Herbert

14. Ring World by Harry Niven ( ...cough..halo..cough...)

15. City by Clifforfd Simak

16. Hyperion by Dan Simmons

17. Norstrillia by Cordwainer Smith

18. Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

19. The Sirens of Titian by Kurt Vonnegut

20. A Fire Upon The Deep by Vernor Vinge (read, it had some of the wierdest depiction of a alien race ever,)

Lots of good luck with your new job.

@ SciFiCat: Young Jim Carrey? Haven't heard that before! Thanks!

Quite a big list of books there. My reading plans are, once I finish the Hitchhiker's series, I'm gonna read the Eragon series, then I'm going to finish reading the Redwall series. Then, once the last book comes out, I'll move onto reading the Wheel of Time series. I'm nervous about moving on to WoT, because of the extreme detail in those books!
