The Indies for Print

2013-06-07T11:41:11-07:00

Okay. I've been jumping over hurdles since I finished The Indies in March. I've invested in a whole bunch of awesome new toys, like a large-format scanner and Fontlab Studio. I've been tooling around in PhotoShop, deciding my clean-up process. I think I might have a clear path to start grinding through pages of The Indies to prep it for print. I have nothing else planned this weekend. I'm going to re-scan, re-master, re-letter and touch up as many pages as I possibly can. I intend to post the clean pages to compare to the rough draft and get any and all feedback I can. I really am curious to see how this goes.

Cool Old Shit From Sheffield

I think the record will show that I fucking love a town in England I've never been to called Sheffield. Look at this rad abandoned water wheel they've got. Dude this place has everything.

I spent all weekend trying to render that video in a way that youtube would like and came to the conclusion that it was high time to upgrade OSX and iMovie. I'm glad it wasn't expensive because I hate it and want it to die. Apple decided the best way to upgrade their software was to make **ALL** my old iMovie HD backup files obsolete in iMovie 11 while making it impossible to run legacy iMovie HD in 10.8.3. When I find another software company that thinks that rendering years of work files unusable is the correct approach to customer support, I'm awarding them a medal that reads "You Totally Suck." It will be shaped like an apple.

Fucking Youtube

I spent all weekend trying to get a couple new YouTube videos up. I think I need to accept the fact that my laptop is insufficient for rendering HD video without glitchy buggy bullshit. I'll get back to you.

TROLL!

2013-05-24T10:31:55-07:00

I do not generally enjoy passive information delivery like television and cinema, so getting me to "see things" tends to be an arduous ordeal. The list of movies and shows I'm told I "need to watch" is abounding, especially considering the rate of completion is around 4 movies per year. This quarter's movie was Troll Hunter, which was quite satisfying.
