Goings and Happenings

Its been a long time since I've updated you dA peeps on what's been going on in my life so might as well do it now. I've been volunteering a lot lately for the student organisation I'm in, RMITV, so I've been doing a lot of community television shows. I did graphics for a show called Chai Latte, which I wasn't happy with, and animation for a children's show called Storytime with Tall Ted.
View it here.

I also filled in for about 4 or so episodes of 'Studio A' but the real fun experience for me was working on a show called The Inquiry. My friend co-produced and directed it and it was a fun 13 episodes (last episode was a bit of a disaster but live tv lol).

Watch all clips form the show here .

Essentially its a news satire program similar I suppose to The Colbert Report and The Daily Show except more youth oriented. I worked on it primarily as Graphics Op however I did short stints as Tape Op, Assistant Director and Cam Op when the need for crew was desperate enough. I also made some cameos in the pre-tapes of the show which I will subsequently link for your enjoyment or out of curiosity as to what I look like
Homelessness Pre-tape, I play a marine biologist 2:42-3:35
Sex Tourism Pre-Tape, I play DJ, the Filipino male sex slave from 1:30 onwards.

I also had a brief cameo in 3 other pre-tapes in which I get brutally attacked, stare at a computer screen and play a female reporter's left hand. Fun times

I had also finished my 2nd year at uni, the semester I just finished I had High Distinctions in all of my Design Subjects so my specialization for 3rd and 4th year is a bit obvious

Sports

Red Sox eliminated in the first round of the playoff so that put me on suicide watch. Celtics are dominant so that's encouraging yet the Mighty Patriots look awfully mortal lately :S

Music

I've been listening to a lot more music these days. Mighty Mighty Bosstones new album is fantastic, love it to bits especially the song 'I wrote it' which is about Johnny Damon from Red Sox/Yankees fame as well as my friend's band, Tyrian Dawn, whose album was fantastic.

Future Projects

I have a few projects planned. A Christmas animation which I've storyboarded already and plan to finish in the next week or two. Also I have a few illustrations I've planned for a while. Can't wait for you all to see it
