Moon Diary Released Online!

So uhh... sorry about the year long lack of updates. Haha, I was busy? I guess?

Anyway, here's an update for the 4 or 5 of you that look at this thing occasionally, one which you probably heard about elsewhere already but...

Moon Diary is online!

Here is a list of places where it can be viewed so far...

As more places become available, I will post them here. Give them all a view and a "like" or whatever other garbage each website is using! Thanks!

Moon Diary Complete!

Moon Diary is finished! DVD's in production, film festivals are being researched, steps are being made for public viewing. It's been a long journey! I wish I had something to post here rather than just text, I probably will soon, but I don't have anything I can really publicly release yet. WELL, actually, I guess I can post the image for the DVD case...




So much for a 7 minute film that would take 3 months! Final stats: 29:50 minutes, 22 months, 25,500 frames, 4 studio locations, 7 houses lived in, 3 girlfriends, 3 money paying jobs, 2 breakdowns, roughly $14,000 between living and production costs, and one more finished product on my kill list. It's been great! Let's see where it goes from here.

Aww jeeze

Finally finished Day 6.

Just day 7 left.

And the extended remake of day 2.

And the music.

And the sound.

And the technical conversions for playing on DVD.

And the publicity train.

And film festival research.

And hundreds of dollars.

And TEHN I"LL FINALLY BE DONE.

If you're interested, there's also a vimeo version here.

IMDB

Well, I managed to find myself registered in the Internet Movie Database for a side project I was helping with. I composed the accordion tracks for the film Alo! 86th Street, and helped a bit with general and animation advice. I don't think the film is public on the internet yet, and I don't know if it ever will be actually, but there's a slight chance you might be able to see it in a film festival near you, so check it out if you can. If it ever comes to fruition on the internet, I'll make you, my loyal reader, first to know.

Fire Operation Demo

Been a while since my last post. Moon Diary has been on sabbatical for the last couple weeks as I've been learning how to use Blender so that I can make these educational videos for my job. It's got a near 90 degree learning curve, but once you memorize the capacities for the program it's pretty simple to put something together. I made this video in a little under two weeks, and in this format it wouldn't be too hard to extend it to an hour as proposed (I hope.)

I've also made another short film for submitting to the Olympia Film Festival. I'll put that up sometime this week, and it'll go on the main site, so official vid. It feels really great to get something finished. The current plan for Moon Diary is to record vocals for day 6 sometime this week, and once I have those full production will be back in effect.

Here's a few action stills I made for a NAESA brochure. Hwat a happy little elevator man.
