Video: I Will Derive
Penguin May 31st, 2008
Cute little spoof on “I Will Survive” with a calculus twist. You may not find it as amusing without some calc background.

The song is “Again & Again” by the Bird & the Bee. It’s nice to see a music video that tries to do something a little different. Instead of traditional musicians and what not, they use various Mac applications.

Cute, but dorky, music video about fractals. Music by John Coultan, the guy who did “Still Alive”, the end song for Portal.

Here’s the 2D version.

I love the idea of mashing up western with scifi. If you haven’t had a chance, check out Cowboy Bebop. It’s a great anime that infuses the feel of the west with space travel and Jazz.
I also like the 60’s look and feel of the whole video juxtaposed with the holographs and lasers.

It’s nice to know that our tax dollars are funding creativity. 
Just goes to show that no matter where you are, you can create something. I especially like the use of military assets. The video does get a bit repetitive, but I think that’s by virtue of the song choice.

Penguin March 25th, 2008
This past weekend, I finished some final edits with Cupid’s Chokehold. Very many thanks to Jimmy for his initial rough cut. There were a lot of good ideas that I kept moving towards the final cut.
When I first started this project, there was this fear that we wouldn’t have enough footage. We ended up having too much footage. Which is a very good thing. But it forced me to cut some minor scenes.
Now it’s time to do some color correcting. Which I know nothing about.
