12/18/2007 9:12:37 AM

i'm hoping it won't be completely horrible. however, that is unlikely.

12/18/2007 9:12:49 AM

pics or it's not happening?

12/18/2007 12:58:21 PM

i put one pic in my photogallery earlier when i randomly decided to put a pic of my cat in there..

but i can't post the vid without sound which i haven't recorded yet, or it would be completely retarded with a bunch of shots with silence where someone is supposed to be talking(although it will turn out retarded anyway)

12/18/2007 1:04:17 PM

12/18/2007 1:05:15 PM

[And when I say we I do not mean me.]

12/19/2007 12:51:05 AM

I'm exporting from WMM now.

12/19/2007 12:52:13 AM

estimated time 28 minutes

12/19/2007 12:53:34 AM

Was is it we're waiting for again?

12/19/2007 12:53:38 AM

GOD DAMMIT

I hope this is worth the wait

In the meantime go to explosm.net, click the stories tab, then go to "story mode" for First day on a space station"

I giggled a lot.

12/19/2007 12:56:06 AM

i assure you it will not be worth the wait. it was basically improvised last night. although i was surprised at how well the movement turned out, I figured I would have to fuck around a lot with the number of pictures i take, framerate, etc.

you should prolly go to bed so you have something to look forward to and don't fall asleep angry.

9 minutes on the export, who knows how long vimeo/youtube will take...

12/19/2007 1:22:43 AM

PLEASE BE PATIENT—THIS MAY TAKE SEVERAL MINUTES.
ONCE COMPLETED, YOU WILL SEE A CONFIRMATION MESSAGE.

12/19/2007 1:26:27 AM

BEHOLD

i'm not sure why there's a black frame, but alas.

12/19/2007 1:51:15 AM

hahaha

nice one

12/19/2007 1:57:28 AM

I commented.

12/19/2007 1:58:54 AM

12/19/2007 2:00:01 AM

camera angles are awesomE!

12/19/2007 2:01:57 AM

Oh, and the music worked well. Almost forgot about the music.

12/19/2007 2:04:23 AM

haha thanks

yeah i love the music, the cheeriness in the music when DD is crying and such, ha

one goof, i was gonna have dd use a grappling hook(my guitar cable) to get up to the building but i had him fly/jump instead, so in like 2 frames you can see me holding it beside him, hah.

I like that dramatic camera movement ending up behind Santa looking at the building top. You don't see that in stop motion films.

12/19/2007 2:08:51 AM

12/19/2007 2:09:20 AM

yay embedded

thanks for the comments and such.

12/19/2007 2:45:17 AM

WORST. BLOOD. EVER.

Also, why do you have so many dolls?

That was amusing though.

12/19/2007 2:49:39 AM

hahaha....that was pretty cool...gg

12/19/2007 2:52:07 AM

12/19/2007 3:00:45 AM

haha, i was gonna make a sweet corn syrup and red food coloring mixture for the blood, but it was like 3AM and i decided that would be way too much work so i used ketchup.

and as for the bobblehead dolls, well I got a set of 4 carolina hurricanes ones(back in the Irbe and Francis and O'Neill days) for a birthday or something, then i got a couple free at random sporting events(reds mascot at reds game, willie stargell at hickory crawdads game), and then people started giving me some more random ones and it turned into somewhat of a mini-collection. I bought the austin powers ones a few years ago. Santa was a christmas gift 2 years ago i think. daredevil was free with the purchase of some popcorn

12/19/2007 3:01:00 AM

i'm gonna try to do one or two a week from now until I go back to Miami jan 11.

set em up:
