little html / dreamweaver design

Lately, I've been concentratin most of my time on the computer. I'm screwin' around on Dreamweaver, Premiere, Flash, Photoshop, AutoCAD, Director, and Ruby, a programming language that my brother is really into. Incidentally, all of these things, except Ruby, are owned by Adobe, since Macromedia is owned by Adobe. I'm an adobe slut. I've also been designing lights for a show going up next week.

And I've been drawing / sketching ideas that make me laugh - Here are two of em:

I don't know if this one reads well. It's the "can you hear me now" guy bashing in the skull of the person he's talking to w/ his cell phone. Looking back now, I think it was sorta inspired by this film (although I just sorta gave away the punchline of the film).

When I look at the second one, I can even hear the whirring fans cooling down overclocked processors.

Anyhow, here's a little site I came up w/ on my free time.

Enjoy!

Choreography Job... sort of

I got a gig teaching NYC Asian Americans how to dance hip hop - well... sort of. Cao Fei was looking for a hip hop dancer to teach not-so-hip-hop Asians a few moves - mostly, as I understand it, as a funny way to clash Asians with hip hop. They showed me a video of Cao's past work, which sorta revolves around the idea that Asians who don't know how to dance hip hop and who try look really awkward.

In other news, I'm looking to get closer to the pulse of good liquid dancing out here in NYC through a close friend. I'm really itchin to dive in. However, in my quest on the internet, found the myspace of a liquid legend, Eric of the Liquid Pop Collective. His site features music from a group called Tortured Soul. Check it out.

Video is Live!

The video is live and running - here's the link: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1229955585217270745

Also, I've been storyboarding a video that involves me pushing around virtual frames - look for it within the next couple of weeks.

Mural Done

I've been working on a mural in my room in Federal Way. I drew this design about half a year ago: And about two weeks ago I transposed it onto vellum and layed a grid on top to get a sense of the scale:

Then I sketched the shape onto butcher paper, Xacto knifed it out, and taped it to the wall:

And to scale:

Overall I'm pretty damn happy with it.

Video done!

I finished my video just today and uploaded a copy to Google Video - it's awaiting approval. So until then, I uploaded a copy of it onto this geocities site, but only one copy per 24 hr period can be downloaded because of bandwidth restrictions.

Putfile.com is on maintenance for the night, but perhaps tomorrow it'll be on there.

Also, I'm working on a mural on a wall based off of a design I sketched out a while back. The design is four inches tall, but the wall is eight feet tall. I've got the most intricate piece cut out of the foam board and taped to the wall.

Almost there...

Gettin close to finishin my first video dealy... I'll post as soon as its up and runnin.

As fer now, here's a screenshot of me havin some fun.
