classic socks

so i started shooting my music video last week. Its turning out pretty good so far. Hopefully it doesn't suck! The video is for Cain and Abel, and I think they will like it. I shot on green screen and I'm going to animate the background.
I'm not finished shooting all the footage yet, but it should be done soon. Here are some pictures I took of the first shoot day.

toronto fire!

so, i woke up this morning to find that I couldn't go to work at my office located at queen and portland due to a massive fire.
The fire started between 5 and 6am.
I didn't have my camera on me at 8am, but i went back around 11:30am and this is what things looked like.

the reminder

Im really pissed cause i just wrote almsot an entire blog on lisa's computer and my hand slid across the mousepad (laptop) and deleted the entire thing. how annoying.

anyway, i was just plugging my radio show. I have a school radio show that i am really enjoying! my show is on thursdays from 6-7pm on www.spiritlive.net. you have to have realplayer to watch (live webcam feed) or just listen to it while you work or whatever.
sometimes i don't think anyone listens to my show, just like no one reads this blog, but its stuff i do for myself. i used to write in a journal for many years, but i guess since i have gotten older and left my notebooks behind for computers, blogs just seem more convenient.

it'd be swell if you would listen to my show, or even come in and co-host one week. i think in the summer time i might try and get a volunteer spot on a show somwhere... so if anyone knows of any stations that are looking for some filler, let me know.
Im going to start posting my playlists from shows and post links to previous episodes if anyone is interested.

peace out

if you are looking to read a great graphic novel, you should look into reading Blankets by Craig Thompson. This book is really amazing. The drawings are just great and the story's not half bad either. A little depressing, but worth the read for sure. I especially love how in this novel you can spend as much or as little time you like on each page. I've attached some examples of his work from this particular story. One of my favourite reads... I think I may pick it up again sometime soon and give it another read. There's nothing like reading an old favourite. Its comforting I guess... since its predictable. Sometimes in life, a little predictability is nice.

snow!
