Ooo Look, A Blog
Hey there dear readers (if anyone comes back), its been a while hasn’t it? Well, lets do a quick breakdown of whats been going on:
-Finished the ARG. Went well, though I was told that it was a bit too much like Myst (go figure O_o)
-Moved out of school
-Worked on Dreamgirls at Beaver. Went very well, once I displaced Adam Wing and programmed the whole thing myself. the Hog 500 is a very nice board.
-Bough a Boxx Technologies Special Edition workstation. 8 cores at 4Ghz, liquid cooled, kick ass workstation graphics card, dual boot with three hard drives (including a 10,000RPM raptor and a 1Tb drive). Just spent the night finding out that I can run games at the highest graphics setting without it even breaking a sweat.
The next thing is something you might not expect. I got another one of those emails from the Footlight club a few days ago, saying they needed a designer ASAP for a show going up in 2.5 weeks. After mulling it over, I decided to go for it and put my name in. As it turned out today, there was a miscommunication and the TD of the place had already taken the job by default last week. Well, I talked to Paul (said TD) and now I’m co-designing the show. Yays! Its one of those shows thats really a bunch of shorter shows (not quite a 10 minute play-fest, but similar idea), all around the idea of timing (the show is called ‘All In the Timing’). We’re basically gonna come up with a basic plot, and then split the scenes in half and each design the specifics of half the show. It should be interesting.
And who knows, maybe I’ll have a use for those 3 dimmer packs of mine… ;D
Here’s hoping I start writing again!
