Here are the promised photos from our gig a couple Saturdays back, click the cut to see 'em. View even more on my Flickr page. ( click to see photos )

A rare, decent photo of myself:


Taken this past Saturday at the Michigan Movie Networking event in Pontiac, MI by the folks from filmingingdetroit.com (sign up to be an extra and such, I did). My only regret is I'm still wearing my name tag. Grr. The other photos are kind of, meh. I liked this one tho.

A photo of my podcast "recording studio" via my batphone.



see a full size version here. I'm done recording episode #3, and I'm getting much better (and quicker) at all of this recording nonsense. It really helps that I have a system that I know works now.  Bit by bit, I'm getting better at voice 'acting' as well. Remember, episode #1 will be online on April 13th.

I'm nearly finished with the Magic of Eyri episode #2 "A Grand Adventure." I probably COULD of had it finished last week, but anyways...

I think I'm set on a way to do the episodes now. Importing .AIF files into GarageBand that I recorded in Audacity is working extremely well. I have not had any issues--aside from a crash the other day, but I was quitting the program and it froze up. It still doesnt' like playing all of the tracks "live", so I guess I'll have to export it, listen to the whole thing and then make any needed changes. Oh well.

Thankfully, I was able to find some much needed sound effects over on Freesound.org. I highly recommend it as a podcasting resource. It is free, has a good selection and you aren't limited to how much you can download (at least not that I've run into). The only condition is that you must credit those whose sound effects you use. No problem there, as the site tracks everything for you in your user profile. Very handy. I'll just list all of that in the show notes for the episode (the text of the podcast update). I have no issues with crediting folks.

Look what I ate this weekend:


This was at Sushi Ya in East Lansing, MI.


The tempura fried kind on the left here was mine (as were the salmon in the center). That's their Crazy Roll. I loves it.

Beware! I drew a new comic for the first time in...well, a really long time (since March?).  I seriously failed on my plan last year to do a sketch a week until '09. OH well.

I'm hosting this on Flickr, figure I might as well.  It'll get me more traffic and it is easier than saving it to my website

For the record, the dudes in the hats are detectives or something. Good gravy, my lettering is horrible.

Well, I've been productive this afternoon:
