A fresh stop-motion: Hatisporet

This is a crazy stop-motion that was made last Saturday, all in one day. My housemate Elie and I came up with the idea, and I set to work animating his, uh, body. My friend Emil Margolis once again composed the music, which originates from a variety of sounds from around our house: skateboards, bottles, insense, drums, etc. The final video is getting mixed reactions... some say they love it, some say it's "uh, bizarre."

You can find it on my video page, but here's a quick link to the small quicktime version (20 mb). The Haircut.

Santa Barbara Film Festival

Yesterday my film Trials Course Love 99 showed as part of the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. This massive festival uses 9 theaters, and my film was shown at Center Stage. After they played my movie as well as two others, we had a Q&A with the audience. Most questions were about unicycling itself, not about my movie, but it was a great discussion nonetheless.

Revamping my website, finally

I'm in the process of changing my whole site! As you may notice, things look much different. I plan to get everything finished and uploaded soon. I'm really excited about the "Stuff" page, it's going to be a spot where I can put all the projects, additional hobbies, and whatever I feel like posting. Stay tuned....
