Happy birthday Dad!

Mario Paint Composer

Like I said, the 3rd Community OC should be coming out within the next month. FINALLY.

As for what I've worked on, I didn't get a chance to actually touch it over the weekend. I'm still looking for that piece that'll spur me to open it again. I have a few ideas, but nothing I want to do yet.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

We start a new movie tomorrow I think. I've already finished my short story, so I don't have to worry about that anymore.

As for ACTUAL news about TBSH, I think it'll be put on indefinite hiatus (odd since it never really started). I just don't have the time or materials necessary to have this work. I'm not calling it quits, I'm just saying not yet.

Got sick AGAIN over the weekend (seriously, this is like the first time in ten years I got sick twice within a month's span). Started on Kid Wars - Chapter 10 and started thinking of major plot points and events in Torch. Torch'll take me a while, but Chapter 10 is pretty basic to me. Expect that within the next fifteen months (it'll not be another Chapter 9).

Hopefully you enjoy!

See you next Monday!

Whoops. Forgot about last week. My bad.

To anyone who missed my latest release, here it is.

I also started and finished my part in the long dormant Community Original Composition. Rusty now (hopefully) has the parts. Let's see if we can get it out by the one year anniversary of the start of it. :P

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Still nothing regarding my little side project. I would like to start it. Lack of time, an actual camera (I was planning using my webcam), and a little nervousness is getting at me.

We are watching Children of Man in Film class. We also got an assignment regarding an original short story.

I've been playing a lot of League of Legends lately. Yeah I know, "I should be working on MPC/TBSH." Sorry, it's too fun. And it's completely free.

To anyone who wants to check it out, here's a link.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. ;-;

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Finished watching Rear Window in Film class. Been wanting to see that for a while too.

Other

Had fun at my family vacation. Saw Inception over the weekend; very good movie. Unfortunately, I either caught stomach flu or got food poisoning, as I fell ill on Sunday. After a horrible experience driving beck from Duluth, I spent the next few hours in the bathroom. I did not go to school today; first sick day I've had in years. Hopefully I'm better by tomorrow.

I actually touched MPC this week. D:

Out of nowhere, I came up with a huge project. I'm trying to shorten the project so I can upload it in one video. Expect this whenever I touch MPC again. :/

Also for people who came from my YouTube channel, the "Nothing at All" under Current Projects is a song, not saying I'm not working on anything. :P

Melancholy MIDI will be released this Wednesday.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Too much homework to get back on this at the moment. We are watching Citizen Kane in film class. Next week is Rear Window. I've been wanting to see both for quite some time now.

Other

My apartment is without internet until Thursday. Thankfully, my school has free internet, so I'll be staying there until 5 every day (school work reasons as well). On Thursday, I'm heading up to Duluth for an annual family vacation; we've been doing this for the past eight years now every July. Looking forward to it. ^_^

Weekly Update: July 6, 2010

Yeah yeah, I know it's Tuesday.

Mario Paint Composer

Had too busy of a week. Never even had a chance to open it. ;-;

I started working on my LOCs again. MY main goal this time was to create the events that will fill the rest of the album. I originally had no idea what would happen in-between Meaningless and Deathbed; I had basic ideas. Now I have the events laid out before me. I just need to add lyrics to them.

I'm Looking MIDI released on the 1st. Melancholy MIDI will be released on the 15th.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Major. Procrastination. AGAIN.

In Film & Literature class, Iturned in a micro-review of Caddyshack II; I got a 93/100. Just need to expand on that (it was 400 words), add a few jokes some people will laugh at, and film. Maybe by August, but I can't make any promises.

Other

Ch. 9 of my story is still in development. Still plan on releasing it sometime this month. FINALLY.

See you next Monday!

Very slow week in Mario Paint. There is one piece I'm almost done with (piano sf), so hopefully I can get it out sometime in July.

I will be deleting my Melancholy MIDI video on July 15, 2010. I have updated the MIDI; added a few things. I will also be uploading the MIDI of I'm Looking during the Fourth of July weekend.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Major. Procrastination.

Instead of trying to get a review done, I instead watched the four Pixar movies I hadn't seen (Cars, Ratatouille, Wall-E, and Up). I enjoyed them very much.

Other

I started working on one of my stories again. Thanks to a computer error last July, I lost most of my work to my story. I've since managed to re-do all my hard work, improving it in many areas. The current update, Chapter 9, should be out sometime in July.

See you next Monday!

Hopefully you enjoy!

I reached 1,000 subscribers on the 17th! Yay! ^_^

I have a few new pieces I'm working on. One is a full piano song (it's a theme from a very popular movie) and a song I used to listen to all the time when I was younger (O-Town's "Nothing at All"). Expect these sometime in July (hopefully :/)

Deathbed (in MIDI version) will be released tomorrow.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Still trying to get out of major procrastination. I might just wing it (script-wise) and see where it goes from there. Still have no idea how to use Vegas, but I managed to pick up Adobe After Effects. Hopefully that's easier to use.

See you next Monday!

Weekly Update: June 7, 2010

Blogger was down yesterday, so I couldn't post anything. I at least tried. :P

Mario Paint Composer

So during last week, I managed to release two videos on YouTube. One was my latest Lyrical Composition: Meaningless. I also stopped being lazy and pulled a Mario Paint Composition out of nowhere. It was made mostly for fun, not for replication. Both of these'll be below.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

I also stopped procrastinating and started to write the script for my review show. Like I said, Caddyshack II will be the first one, and since I'm getting ahead of myself, I also picked out a second movie to do.

Sadly, I do not know how to use Sony Vegas. I hope to learn it over the next week or two, but if it starts taking too long, the first episode might be edited with WMM, but hopefully not. :/

See you next Sunday!

Hopefully you enjoy!
