I made a short video while on vacation last June. I used the video function on my Panasonic digital still camera. The clips were saved as small (320 x280) Quicktime files and I edited them in the latest version of iMovie. I LOVE the idea of tapeless video, I didn't have to sit around waiting for my computer to capture the footage from a tape, it was a simple file transfer, from camera to hard drive.

Good stuff, I can't wait to finish it. I used a boom stand and the electovoice 256 mic, three different cameras and the afw studio A

Meme goes viral
A Houston Library was already adapted the 2.o bling I designed. They've added a few and are using them as incentives for their learning program. Thanks to Sean for pointing this out.

a short animation with a drawing style I enjoy.
T shirt Update.
I washed my 2.o shirt and it still looks good, nothing cracked, peeled, mutilated or spindled. It did shrink a tad, I plan to wear it to the gym and represent.

Computer Center
The Summer Help we hired in is almost gone.
I return to putting in slightly less than 20 percent of my time at work in this room.
I've decided to use this as an opportunity to get all 2.0 on ya. 9-12 hours a week to blog this, flickr that, RSS like a stone mo'. Perhaps I'll even institute a weekly IM session were I'll be available for Questions 2.0. or even "Make Kay Draw Something" day on Queeky
I'm drawing right now 11:34 am

I am consuming a turkey sandwich, awaiting the taping of ROCK THE PLAZA. Which will be more like JUMP AROUND FOR 10 MINUTES THEN WILT THE PLAZA owing to the extreme heat.

Some Helpful Links
Here is a wiki about LAME, the translator that works with Audacity to make MP3s.
Here is where you can get it.
This is a Link to CD EX that Wikipedia says also translates Audacity Files to MP3s. I'm going to check it out because LAME is making me blind with rage.
