Mango Tango…

Tuesday, March 29th, 2005

…Over the last few days (since Friday) I’ve been filming a commercial for my Video Field Production and Editing class. We had to come up with a concept for a product and then film a :30 spot advertising it. We decided to go for “Mango Tango.” A 100% juice product that is also 100% cool.

Walking Billboard…

…My T-Shirt arrived yesterday and I’m quite impressed. A friend of mine had nothing but bad things to say about the quality of the CafePress shirts but I don’t know exactly how he came to that conclusion. The colors are bright and clear, the t-shirt is quality 100% cotton, and the printing is, IMHO, excellent.

Midterms are […]

Forum, News, Blog?..

Thursday, March 10th, 2005

…Sometimes I’m not sure where to post stuff. I haven’t updated the blog in a few days so I’ll put it here. I’ve been busy working on the photo gallery manager (Qdig) for a while. I’ve been tweaking it trying to get it to work the way I want. Some of the […]

The King’s Inn…

Saturday, March 5th, 2005

…Momma and “D” (my parents) took myself and Sarah (my fiancee) out to dinner tonite to celebrate our engagement. We went to a place called the King’s Inn in Port Henry, New York. It’s a beautiful lodge at the top of a hill built when Port Henry was a bustling mining town. The service was […]

The radio show was good today…

Saturday, March 5th, 2005

…Another one down. It went very well. Jordy and Evan took the day off so I was alone for most of it. Our General Manager Corey sat in for the first segment and we talked for a bit. The rest of the show was all music and lots of it. I […]
