Weight Watchers Hungry Monster

A friend of mine commissioned a plush version of the Weight Watchers Hungry Monster. I took a few pics with my iPhone as I was making it.

V-Day Attack!

I got bored today and made a video with my iPhone 3G, using the new Qik video recorder app. The quality isn’t all that awesome, but the convenience of pulling my phone out of my pocket and making a video is VERY awesome. Hopefully the next phone I get has better recording capabilities.

Insert head pun here

Digging through some more old pictures I found a series of photos I took when I made a dummy head for a friend’s Zaphod costume for a Hitchhiker’s Guide themed party. I’ve posted a finished product pic awhile back but never posted the rest of the pics of it being made…

Doctor Tentacle!

I was going through my iPhone photos today (trying to fix missing images from the blog changeover) and found a pic of my Halloween costume from 2008.

Keeping it clean

Of course I’m referring to the blog theme, not it’s content.  Decided to go with something simple and clean, while touching it up with a logo and some customized coloring. It’s not quite where I want it to be yet but I’m definitely satisfied and I’ll be retouching it up here and there (as soon as I relearn some basic HTML and CSS).

Spending the rest of todayassembling my studio space so I can start filming with better lighting and a green screen.

More puppet videos soon!

Chai spice cupcakes

My lovely wife baked up some treats this afternoon for no reason in particular and I thought I’d share them. Unfortunately my camera battery wasn’t charged so I took these pics with my iPhone, but played around in the Photoshop app to spice up the pictures a bit.

Both the cupcake and the buttercream frosting have a chai spice flavoring.

Happy Happy Joy Joy!

I’ll teach your Grandmother to suck eggs!

If WordPress could talk, that’s what I think it’d say right now. I just figured out that I can import all my old blogger posts into WordPress. HUZZAH! I was about to start manually adding them all and changing the time/date stamps. I think I’ll spend that time instead kicking back with a flavored seltzer and actually enjoying my Saturday instead. Let WordPress do all the work. :)

I found a theme that I think I like and can work with to make my own. Might be a few more days but this blog should look reeeeeeaaal pretty soon.

Woo-hoo!

Starting over

Not that I had very much to begin with, or that I updated often, but I was fed up with blogger and I have decided to go with WordPress.

My Brain hurts. But it seems to be mostly working so far.

Gotta make/find a theme… perhaps repost some of my old posts.

Old blog can be found (for now) at sweetwildandmad.blogspot.com

More to come.

New Years Resolutions!

Finally going HD with my videos, and I put together a quick vid for the New Year. However it seems that my blog template was great for the old 4:3 aspect ratio youtube videos, and now the HD width is breaking my blog structure.

Sigh. Well, I’m putting it up anyway, and I guess I’ll be remaking my blog… AGAIN. Anyways, ENJOY!
