Best one yet, easily, reminds me of Mc Donald's actually, coincident that Mc Donald's and the Commies love the same 2 colors? I think not. Regardless, this is easily the most intelligent and timely April fools joke the site has pulled, i tip my hat to you gentlemen.

But thats not why im here, this is me first post in like 2 weeks. Crazy i know, for me at least, im normally so punctual. So what is all this madness thats keeping me away then. Well, for one, i got another job last week, and wouldn't you believe it, its another telemarketing job, and god damn do i hate it, at least my last telemarketing job was only 4 hours a day, this new one is full time, and on top of that its a 2 hour trip on the train each way to work. Im hoping i can just work there for the next couple of weeks and find something else in my free time, but judging by the amount of free time i have between work and traveling it wont be easy, to say the least. I just, eugh, Telemarketing is horrible, even if its for the best of causes, between people being an ass to you on the phone and the unrealistic expectations of the managing department its just a nightmare.

On the upside, ive recently started dating a lovely girl, and she never ceases to boost my mood and make me giggle, so now im spending allot more time with her as well that too is cutting into my animation time, mainly on my weekends, since i get home from work so late i never feel like animating anyways. The only chance i really get is in the early morning. Hands up anyone who animates in the early morning :P

In other news Brisbane Supanova is this weekend, dunno if any of you Brisbanites are going, i don't think ill get there until later in the afternoon, around 4, due to work. Kinda sucks, i finally move up here to Brisbane and i miss out on the only real animation con there is. Thats life i suppose.

Not much else to report really, ive suddenly gained a great interest in time lapse work. Ive dabbled in it once before, one afternoon, it only ended up being about 20 seconds worth of film, but there's something about the way clouds move that really captivates me, and strangely enough, after buying the Watchmen Soundtrack and falling in love with "Pruit Igoe & Prophecies" i did some digging and found that the track was originally from a movie called "Koyaanisqatsi" from 1982. Im sure some of you would have seen it as some of the imagery is rather famous now.

Here was my little attempt before i knew the film existed, filmed late last year before i moved up here to brisbane. After about 20 seconds it cuts to just lightning strikes. I might make another one soon for a local film festival. Definitely my main interest in film making outside of animation, people and acting never really interested me, well, aside from acting myself.
