My goodness I've been busy lately. K and I are in the process of buying a house! We close at the end of April. There will be plenty of work to do to make the place our own, and I'm excited about that.
I've also started a new job at a prototyping company called Eagle Design and Technology. It's an amazing place and I love working there. Up until two weeks ago, I had been working second shift (3pm-11pm) for three years. Now work starts at 7:00AM and I typically don't get out til 4:30. I've been tired for two weeks.
Now for the fun stuff: projects on the burner
1. Stop motion animation
My good friend Jason Trosper, owner of
Trosper productions, and I have taken on learning stop motion animation together. He's a huge batman fan- to the point that his basement is completely decorated in batman memorabilia. We are planning a short film in which a Lego batman chases and fights a Lego joker through the various shelves of batman stuff.
Here's my first attempt at stop motion with a Lego guy:
And here's Jason's and my first attempt together:
2. I'm working over a few ideas for some prototypes of some useful gadgets. One's a hands free dog turd bragger and the second is a lightweight, impact resistant iPad case that has a built in tripod mount. Look for more on those later.
I'm also working on a few other projects that I'll update you on soon.
Lots happening! Stay tuned!
