Blender Tutorial /// Out of the ball pit
Everybody that has ever done tutorials needs to have a first, this is mine. The goal I had in mind was to show people how to use the logic editor and the game engine that is part of Blender 2.5.

Bar Graphs /// After Effects
Create stunning Bar Graphs really simply. I’ve provided the After Effects CS5.5 version below. I think the project file is pretty self explanatory, but if you have questions leave them in the comments section below. Enjoy!

Shawnee Mission Park.//// Sunset
Tonight our flight was a little bit bumpy; it had almost rocked Lindsey to sleep. As we descended through the enormous cotton balls of clouds I couldn’t help but think how beautiful it was. Then on the way home I asked Lindsey what time the sun would set because a large cotton ball sky can make for a great night to setup my camera and record a time lapse. So tonight that’s what is going on. We got back from the airport, and I no more than dropped our luggage inside our front door and headed for the park. Lindsey asked me tonight how many sunsets I need, and I told her that I needed one more infinitely. They are all different, and I don’t have any desire to miss a good one. I may be tired from the full day of traveling, but this is one of my favorite places on the planet right now. So… Here I am documenting another beautiful night at Shawnee Mission Park.
Ps. While recording the time lapse I choose to type this entry up as well. You may have noticed that it’s a bit longer than the rest of my posts
Ps II. I take the shots on a canon t2i process the raw images, and sequence them together in After Effects CS5.5.
Ps III. I will probably take more shots and more time lapse over the rest of the summer. Stay tuned.

Texture Pack 1 /// Old Wood
I was at a wedding Saturday evening, I decided to pull out my camera and take some shots. A bunch of them were sweet textures from the awesome wooden floor. I’ve bundled my favorite five zipped them together and now I’m making them available to everyone for free.
Free for personal and commercial use, please only share links to my website not directly to the download. Leave me a comment with what you’ve made with my textures.
