Nesting Screenplay - 95% Done!!

I [finally] got my screenplay to a stopping point. After hearing surprisingly positive feedback from my professor, I may polish up some of the plot and character development. Overall, I feel good about the script, and I think it's a good first project. Yay!!!

So 20 more pages and a bit a fleshing out in a couple spots, and I'll have a genuine first screenplay done!

Las Vegas Neon Boneyard

I found inspiration from Erin on this piece. On her last work trip to Las Vegas, she toured the famous Neon Boneyard. I was fascinated by her photos from the tour. I'm also mildly obsessed with typography. So this was a perfect fit for a painting project.

Fun Saturday

Erin and I knocked around Dallas on Saturday.

First stop: Bolsa. This place was excellent. We split late lunch that included bruschetta and a peperoni flat bread.



Here's a recycled-styled shot that was set up by a photographer from the Observer who was there to take a couple shots about the restaurant.



After that, we cruised up Bishop street and checked out a sidewalk sale going on. I bought a couple presents... cannot share those details for fear of ruining the surprise though!



After dinner with friends, we headed downtown to catch up with Ryan and strolled around downtown a little bit. Nieman's always has cool displays. This one especially caught my eye.

Drillbaby Project

I'm thinking about the relationship of oil (a finite resource) to the earth. And then I played off the idea of "mother earth." I think this illustration project captures my thoughts. I'm not saying that we're running out of oil (we won't for another long, long while, anyways). Maybe it's a hater's proposal to find a better alternative.

Pistol Cutout Project

I wanted to work with paper and cutouts... playing with the juxtaposition of violence and beauty.

Oh, and I'm loving the Camera Bag App for iPhone. Cool.

Supplies
- card stock - various colors
- exact-o knife (these are NOT die cut)
- glue

Fall 2008 - Final Countdown!

I have disappeared! No, not at all. Just very, very busy with a work project and with final projects for my 2 classes.

Incoming!
- 2 New Design Projects
- Final Movie Script for "Nesting"

Huttah!

Vampalin Pumpkin - Done!

Okay, so here is the Vampalin pumpkin. I had to simplify some of the lines for sanity's sake. But it turned out good! Also, I completely forgot to add the circle and the bats to the piece, but I was tired and lazy. Whatever!
