Its been a while since my last update. I lost my teaching job (it wasn't paying at all anyway), my video card died (working on one screen is the pits), My Canon SX120 died (but I fixed it XD ), and I have a whole documentary to finish before next week. It's crunch time. Not to mention that thursday is the last day that we will be able to stay in this house. It's time for us to move once again. We're good at beating this system called life. I'm bless by what ever gods my be that I never ended up in the projects, "baby mamma'd and child support'd," or locked in a cage like so many of my brothers. One good thing I can say about being poor is that I'm ready for pretty much anything that the world throws at me. I love this adversity! I've got stone skin now and my gamma energy is at critical mass. It's time to HULK SMASH!!!
I've been looking at film techniques and trying to enhance my camera work. Specifically, I've been looking into camera rigging because of my not so steady hands. I built a Snorricam rig and I have to say I'm pleased with my prototype. Its a little flimsy but it gets the job done with my cheapo Sanyo HD100. The next rig that I will probably build is a fig rig or some other type of stabilizer. Youtube has been good to me. I'm learning the basics and its showing in my recordings already. I have some footage that I shot with the Snorricam today that has inspired me to shoot a music video for one of my friends. I cannot wait for that morning sun to rise for I know that tomorrow bring new adventures to capture.
