In the Studio is Closing

So every year or so, I get tired of blogging and my posts get much less frequent. And to jump-start my writing, I usually revamp the blog. But recently, I was looking at some iPod Touch apps and came across a blogging site called Tumblr. And it's pretty. And they host mp3s, something which Blogger doesn't. And I can post from my iPod. And did I mention it's pretty?

Anywho, no more posts at this blog. Check out the new one!

Coraline

[EDIT] Need to stop getting my information from second-rate websites. Ahem... Henry Selick.

My dad and half-brother, Max, came to visit me this weekend, and we went to see Coraline in 3D. I have to say, it was pretty much exactly what I expected, which was awesomeness. I've seen just about every Tim Burton film, and this one went above and beyond. Here's a short behind-the-scenes look at how the "costumes" were made for the movie:

GreenPeace

It's been a while since I've done anything creative, despite the fact that I have shop this semester. Most of the work there has been studies in joints and working drawings. However, I am taking a writing class, and we've been tasked with creating a "visual argument," such as an advocacy ad, for the organization of our choice. I chose GreenPeace and created this little drawing:



Now it's onto the 3-page paper that accompanies it, arguing why GreenPeace should use this as an advertisement for their cause. Yay.
