Stop Motion-ish Photography
I shot some photos and video at an Ana Sapphira video shoot. This is just something I wanted to upload to test out. Nothing is timed out. The stills are 4 frames each at 24 FPS.
*Note* I’m not making this video. I just offered another camera angle. The group is making this video with Director Jorgen Strycharz for their song Of Desperation.
Post from your Blog to Facebook
Sorry for all the random posts. I have this bloggy thing and I want to be able to post ‘stuff’ on it and then have it automatically post in Facebook. I wanted to only show up on my fan page but it also posts to my personal page. Oh well guess I can live with that. It shows up twice and that kinda bugs me. It probably irks you too if you’re both a friend and fan.
Anyway, If you’re thinking of this type of ‘blog to facebook’ thing, I am using WordPress v. 3.0 and the plugin is called Wordbooker.
Sorry again for using up all that facebook real estate while testing.
One more rung up the blog ladder.
I added one of those nifty Facebook ‘Like’ buttons to my website. Truth is, I couldn’t have done it without the support forum at The Theme Factory where I bought this cool theme (site).
I, of course, am no web designer. I have some basic skills. i can make a static page, but once I started this blogging journey, it became a whole lot more difficult. It’s more than html and css. There’s php and a data base called MySQL involved. Well, I know little about php (I guess I know a little more now.) And don’t ask me how MySQL works.
I posted a question on The Theme Factory’s support site and within a day I had my first response. I tried a few things, got part way, went back to the support site and boom! They had me sorted out in no time.
I say all this in case any of you are thing of starting a WordPress site. You might want to check them out. They’re a commercial site. I paid good money for this because I couldn’t find any decent looking free themes. It was worth it in my opinion.

INCEPTION
Students pay attention: STORY, STORY, STORY!
If you haven’t seen it, I’ll try not to give anything away about Chris Nolan’s Inception. This is brilliant storytelling. A master class in pacing. From the screenplay all the way to the editing. It doesn’t lag anywhere. The movie is about two hours and twenty minutes. It feels like a ninety minute thriller and it makes you feel like your in a dream within a dream. See it to understand what I’m saying. BRILLIANT!
