Giving Deviant Art another go 12:28 PM

alien by ~tohoscope on deviantART

Well, I have no idea if it'll help or not, but what the heck. I'm posting stuff on Deviant Art again. We'll see if it helps or not. Or whatever.

UPDATE: Crips that's ugly.

Video on the cheap 1:25 PM

Recording became cheap. You didn't need a big pricey studio anymore to make a recording. Hell, you don't need a broadcast studio to make podcasts. Technology has rendered it cheap. Anybody with very little investment can make a good recording.

And it's happening to video as we speak.

You won't need public access television. You can make, edit and distribute video in your basement these days. Hell, I could, or should make a damned talk show in the front room with webcams and lapel microphones and mix the mess in computer.

And why the hell not do it now?

There's a question of studio space. How could you take someplace and turn it into a set? What are the possiblities of doing something like a talk show, or a kiddy show, or Kiddie a go go or any of the staples of early television? Sitting behind a desk with a blank wall behind you?

And it never seems to get where I'm going 8:51 AM

Went to sleep thinking about comics. Making comics, laying out pages, drawing them in my mind. Woke up dreaming that I worked as a film compositor in some industrial park. Weird.

Need to finish those Katie pages and get them posted this week. Maybe a holiday pin up or two, too.

Yeah, like that!

Hell Nurse Katie Banner 1:24 PM

Changed Danno's Comics and Stories into the new Hell Nurse Katie site on Webcomics Nation. I'm thinking about doing the upgrade, too. Once we've got the book in print. Not too shabby, I think. I'll look at Drunk Duck, next.

Video Gaming 9:48 AM

I was browsing the gift guides and thought to myself that the cost of a new Xbox was about the cost of a cheap desktop computer. Of course you'd have to buy a graphics card to put into that desktop to play the games you could play on that new Xbox.

I wonder how much a new old Xbox costs. And if I could still buy one.

Of course I wanted an Xbox a while back and never got it. But I did get my PSP. And I've realized I'm not a gamer. I use my PSP for just about everything, mostly playing videos. But not so much for games. Weird.

I think I'll dig out my old PlayStation and hook it up this weekend.

Bonus: I got LATITUDE ZERO and MST3K Vol.12 last night AND Chad and Rachel sent me something from my Amazon Wishlist for Christmas. Coolness.

Post-it Note Self Portrait 8:59 AM

I'm working on OtakuHELL as the storefront for HELLnurse Katie. If all goes well I hope to have it all working by the beginning of 2008.

And with any luck we'll have something to sell by then.

Onward...

It's like a Oekaki, but on paper. Wait a second...

I wonder what it'd cost to make a documentary. Time to do some research.

It's not freezing, yet 2:47 PM

It was springtime warm on Saturday, then it was raining and cold on Sunday. Today it's grey, wet and cold. But it's not below freezing. So I guess that means it's not quite winter weather in Texas.

The Katie Kronicles 9:04 AM

I figure someday I'll need to write it up for the book, so I'll start by gathering my thoughts here.

I guess it's my fault. Unlike all the other AnimeHELL purveyors who's shows are a pure video experience, or at least it seems like it to me, I'm guilty of trying to make something more of my own shows.

Yeah, I'm just not satisfied showing video clips. I had to go and play around with the formula which works for everybody else. Maybe because it didn't seem to be working for me. I guess I'm still bummed that I never get to play the main rooms here in Texas. Yeah, I have main room envy.

And so, not content just to spool video, I started adding stuff to the show. I don't remember which show exactly, but I put Bruce on a microphone. Then the next show I put Michael on a microphone. Why? The same reason DJs put MCs on microphones at their shows, to entertain the crowd while they cue up the next track. And I found that if I have a couple of good people on the mics they play off the audience and each other. It's my opinion that engaging the crowd makes for a better show. And I'm too busy cuing up the video to be very effective at this.

But I'm digressing.

Taking a cue from William Castle

and stinking blogger lost the rest of that thought...

Working with ink 2:04 PM

While being sick from Thursday night until sometime Sunday I didn't get anything done. I really couldn't. And it bugged me Sunday just trying to get back to what I'd been working on for the HNK project. Frustrated and annoyed. Still, I'm back to it. I'm thinking I'll get out the two pages I was working on if not a third. And I'm thinking of a Lil' Nurse Katie comic, too. I'll mine some of the Lil AWA Noemi material and get a few pages from it.

Nice online color tool. I guess I need to work on my color design. Because I really don't have one. Ouch.
