New Signature.... Again mini/bigsmile leads to my composition page, and this signature is way less crowded.

Has anyone been watching the new Marble Hornet videos? He just came out with 31.

Looks like a penny is worthless.

Alright, looks like my test podcast (technically an ANS but "Podcast" is quicker to type) "BrickAM" fell through, despite my hard work. So I have an idea, but before I possibly go ahead I'd like to get opinions so I don't get slammed.

Riiight, so basically my IDEA is to make a small weekly show, which includes a brief round-up of Brickfilming news, a review with a Brickfilmer, and a review or two of films. Simple, but I could see it getting some popularity. Plus it could give some publicity to smaller brickfilmers and assorted projects.

I think this could work.  The best way to make this successful would be to make it short but sweet.  For example, if it was a weekly released five minute podcast, as long as it contained interesting and fun to listen to stuff, it could probably be a big hit. 

IMO, key things to it's success would include:
Unique and fun to listen to information (I would love to hear interviews with other animators even those less popular, contest updates)
Short episodes since many people wouldn't be able to listen to a half hour of audio, at least not at one sitting
Consistent release dates (Like you said, have it be a weekly thing)

The BiM Broadcast has really slacked on consistency.  BrickCast has done a better job at releasing episodes, but it still takes them a while to release new stuff.  If you could regularly, release a short but good podcast, I say go for it mini/wink

One thing, keep it short, and fast paced. Try to keep things moving, I find it slightly boring when someone spends alot of time on a issue or story that only needs a few seconds. I really like the idea of reviews and helping get some publicity to smaller brickfilmers. I have seen some amazing brickfilms from lesser known animators, but they never got alot of views because they weren't that well known.

I saw the newest one this morning. Pretty interesting. Somewhat of a filler vibe though. Hope they don't drag on the series too long. I would like to see an ending to this webseries.

Re: Café Corner

It's a little anachronistic, considering that it features the modern American flag, rather than the one used during the period of the Revolution.

Re: Café Corner

How is that even possible?

He stood there on purpose. He had to.

Re: Café Corner

It has been recorded happening on accident occasionally, although the bullet has to have been shot at something of an angle as gravity alone can't accelerate a bullet to speeds fast enough to penetrate the skull. It's definitely not impossible though.

Naturally I know it is true because I saw it on that infallibly scientific television show, Mythbusters.

Re: Café Corner

Also, the bullet must have been shot at a considerable arc, because it's proven that if shot straight up the bullet will hit the ground sideways and won't have nearly enough force to penetrate bone.

Re: Café Corner

I finished the first, polished draft of a new script tonight. It's 84 pages.  I want to make it, as a 2D animated film, but will have to see about the practicality of that.

Give me your script, Smeagol. I will keep it safe...

Re: Café Corner

Seriously? I might be interested in having you read through it, though I'd need you to email the .pdf back to me immediately afterward so I could shred it.

I have a bit of a fear of getting feedback on it, though that's the logical next step. I'd consider it to be a little more "out there" and unconventional than my previous work, so I suspect some readers might just dismiss it as weirdness.
