A.M.I.T.I.H.T.S.F.B.E.T.S.E

self protrait 18-02-08

A moment in time where it's hard to stand far back enough to see everything, or at least enough of my own world.

So today I visited Kendal to catch up with my mate Adam Clarke to talk about creative projects. Mainly Machinima and my film script 'Danny'

We visited Game and looked though the Wii Games, me having acquired a Wii before Christmas Holiday. Adam is aliment on buying a PS3 even when they were £425 at launch but I argured that the PS3, unless you want to have Blu-ray isn't much better than the 360, plus the 360's games are cheaper by about £10 on average. He didn't think much of this and I couldn't talk much as I've only got a Wii at the moment (did used to have a 360 but sold it for laptop funding, BUT ONCE I GET SOME SPARE MONIES!!! gonna get a 360 again xD )

Anyway after that important discussion, we moved onto the matter of finding some coffee and cake *still haven't played Portal :'( * we visited a bar called Bootleggers, partly because of the lure of free wifi but there was no cake :'( anyway, Adam is getting into Machinima using Second Life as you can see below.



I haven't got into Second Life yet as I'm anti social... *cough* NO! I'm very nice in reality but I just don't get Second life, I could understand if you had objecives/being able to do battle with others across the world. Second life is like Big Brother, only more boring >:(

Personally, I'm getting into Cinema 4D cause it is something I can understand xD be sure to watch out for more on that! anyways...

Today was kind of a weired day today, as I feel as if the winds have stopped blowing and I'm adrift in a sea of possibility but I'm in the middle of all possibilities, but if I go for one, I would miss out on everything else. I've lost structure in my life and I float from point to point. I want to get on with my film project but I'm dependent on other people. I don't want to stay in this cycle of waiting for possibilities from other people, so I'm thinking about doing a small personal project like an animated short but I lack the confidence of starting it. I've lots of ideas I came up with during 2007 but I was getting used to the idea of making a feature length film. I guess I need to just have a mind dump sort of video where I just try out lots of stuff.

Also with the start of the new year, I've been teaching myself some new skills for animation, Flash mainly. I really Like Flash, even though it doesn't do everything I would want it to do, but thats how you learn to work within a medium.

Anyway, that enough talking for now, see you in a bit!
