Tree plans and not-yet-organized chaos
Almost forgot the Saturday blog… it’ll be a short one this week. The heat has arrived and that means watering duty is back. My dad’s been helping me rip out weeds, but there is definitely a need for me to get on track with laying down cardboard and mulch...
Back to our regularly scheduled Saturday random updates blog
Which I meant to start up again last week but got sidetracked. Whatever. Woke up with this song in my head: Which in a way fits what’s been going on, except it’s all old shit when you consider that I’ve decided to just focus on painting and that goes...
Back at it, glitches, and some garden flowers
Been a couple weeks since I wrote one of these… well, it’s been a busy month from time management Hell. So… when last I wrote a Saturday blog, I had only put out the first video for The Nick White Show, “The Smoke Pit,” and was working on the...
Production planning, shipping delays, and some more spring flowers
This week’s been all about The Nick White Show for the most part. The start-up of any new project is always the most time-consuming. Anyway, I’m planning to have a video chunk per week, so I figured it was time to come up with a daily task to keep...
Filming, googly eyes, and ripping CDs
Actual production on The Nick White Show has begun… sorta. The first video will be a little no-dialogue skit using the graffiti wall I posted about yesterday as an outdoor set. I filmed it this morning (because I forgot about the whole nasty black shadows on the set thing...
Propmaking, rain, and a leaky dishwasher
Once again, the big activity of the week was making props for the trailer I need to shoot ASAP for The Nick White Show, but I covered that in yesterday’s post, so never mind. I have had a couple people now recommend I switch to Super Sculpey clay, and...
Spring cleaning, spring flowers… kinda a slow week
Well, the squirrel didn’t manage to come back inside, though she’s tried a few times this week. So we seem to be good on that front. In other news, spring has sprung, or at least begun to do so. Garden pics at the end, but also spring cleaning has...
Tweaked back, character bios, and the return of Squirrel Wars
Well, another Saturday blog. Couple big news items this week: first, I somehow tweaked my back on Thursday. No clue how; everything was fine and normal for the first half of Thursday, then about 2:30 I decided to go for a quick walk before my Zoom clarinet lesson and...
Plastic props, I hate SnapChat, and some snowdrops
Bit of a slow week, especially since an old shoulder injury (right shoulder, rotator cuff) flared up and I was taking things easy waiting for the misery to subside. It does make me think that I’ll set aside the fiddle for a little while, at least a couple months,...
The Nick White Show, new fiddle and clarinet gear, and early spring flowers
Time to get to work… I got back to editing audio on the first prequel of the web series I’ve been working on. About that… so, I’d thought I might call the show “Where The Sun Don’t Shine,” thinking it rather clever for a show set in a rock...
