Halloween Podcast on Worlds Of Wayne

Friday, October 31st, 2008

Ahh, a silly bit of Halloween fun. My dear Wayne Brekke invited the members of the Empty Bottle Theatre Group and myself to help him record a special podcast for Worlds of Wayne — a radio play/podio book/whatever-it’s-called titled Playhouse of the Damned. Check it out! I play various demons and vampires and such, and I had a blast recording it. It’s so nice to work with people with real talent, although it does expose me as the hack I truly am. Whatever. I’ll bask in their limelight, leech off their fame and fortune, because I have absolutely NO shame! :)

 

Have a happy and safe Halloween!!!!

Maybe it was the extra garlic in the meatballs…

Last night as I was powering down my studio, I was wrestling with a bit of a puzzler.  I need to make some changes to the editing system I designed in POV-Ray – changes to improve workflow, allow me to attach audio events that won’t require any adjustment if the synced video frames need to be changed, and so on and so forth… The ideas collided with one another, like bumper cars driven by drunk college students, but I was confident that once I closed my weary brown eyes and let sweet, sweet slumber take over, the ideas would right themselves by morning, and I would awaken with THE ANSWER to my quandry…

When the Better Half hit me with her pillow and told me to drag my sorry carcass out of bed, the first thing that popped in my head was an idea for a movie short involving three-eyed aliens, a squid monster, a dead squirrel, and God.

Aliens.  Squid monsters.  Dead rodents.  The Almighty.

Uhhh… yeah.

Anyone want to trade brains?  Anyone?  I’ll throw in a pair of broken headphones and a copy of the 2003 Guiness Book of World Records.  C’mon, that’s a deal, people!

Sheesh…
