The Bewitching Novels – Motion Graphics

I’ve been working on putting together a trailer for The Bewitching novels I’ve written. I think trailers for books are great promotional tools. They give a nice, quick look at what the book is about for the audience, and according to stats people are more likely to check out a video than they are to…

Lessons Learned – My First Commercial Video Shoot

A few years back I was able to shoot a video. I had written the script based on the theme for the video and we had scheduled three days for shooting. For the most part, everything went well. The actors, who weren’t trained, and the hair and makeup people, who were included in the video,…

Jenny Squires – Fall Photos

Here’s the second outfit change from the photo shoot I posted the other day. Oddly, even with quality settings set really high, it looks like they are a bit more pixelated then they are on my computer. Which is strange since I shrunk them down instead of blowing them up. I noticed that also while…

It’s Been a Year…

As the title says it’s been a year since I’ve been able to find the time to update anything here. I’ll ignore that half of last year was wasted building projects for some I shouldn’t have. It’s probably also a bad thing that I’m a very hands on type of person who happens to be…

Coming Soon!

You know, I’m really not happy with a lot of the slider plugins I’m seeing. Wow slider looks nice, BUT there are a few things I don’t like about it. Part of this lies in the way it has you create code. I’ve never found code created in this way to be efficient in the…

Wattpad Community and Etiquette

It’s been a busy last several weeks. I still have a lot more to do, but I wanted to give another shout out to Wattpad because of some of the amazing people I’ve met there and the opportunity Wattpad offers to writers. There are also a few things I noticed for those hoping to get…

Flawed Artists – The Power of Insecurity

Artists can be said to have many flaws. One of the greatest is sometimes said to be insecurity. It reminds me of a quote I’ve seen that pops up every now and again. It goes along the lines of stating that those who know the least speak the loudest, and those who are the most…
