Make Believe

This mashup video is from a sophomore college class in 2003. I’m going to have to re-master it one of these days (some of it uses VHS source) and re-scan the Sandman stills–apologies; they can be hard to read at times.

Despite this, it’s still one of the things I’ve done that I’m most proud of. There’s a short essay (PDF) that goes along with it, if you’re so inclined.

To further illustrate what a huge geek I am. This is more of a brainstorm video, a sketch of an idea of a thought. Being fast-and-furious navlopomo, I don’t have the time to do more right now.

Context: Back in the beginning of 2007, the Sci-Fi Channel began a video “contest”, giving viewers high-quality SFX, music and b-roll video clips from the show Battlestar: Galactica (one of my favorite shows right now). Then they were to shoot their own footage and create a short video taking place inside that universe. I was going to do this but never got around to it.

I never was good at always following the rules.

Waking Up

“The Park” by Feist is what I wake up to each morning on my CD player/alarm clock. I think it’s a beautiful song, so I thought I’d share.

Anyone who knows what the audio is from gets geekpoints. Leave guesses!
