MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Just wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone who reads or at least glances at this blog. Here's hoping to get what you want, even if it is just Peace on Earth, and Goodwill toward Man.

Alas poor Gloria...

So, here we are at the beginning of December. I've been busy, pissed off, upset, and a crap load of other stuff for a while. On November 15, 2006, I found out that my Mother had passed away on October 5, 2006. No one had bothered to contact me, even though a close friend of the family had given the social worker from the care center my Mom was in, my phone number. There's still somethings that I won't talk about, nor have I read the poem/story that my wife wrote about my Mom. Too painful I guess. Never having the chance to properly say goodbye. So, yeah, I think I've got a pretty damn good reason to be pissed.

That little VFX based short film never happened. Trying to find the right people and getting everything together just wasn't meant to be. Made more progress on my friend's short film, than I did on mine. At least we got around to actually shooting some material! :) Anyways, as it stands right now, another friend, Chris Smith, and myself are currently slaving away on our CGTalk.com Challenge. We're working on a movie trailer for the book EON. We've got until January 15, 2007, so this one should be doable, especially since the maximum length can only be 90 seconds. I'll post some stuff here when we get around to having material ready to show. More to come later...

This blog is dedicated to Mom:

Gloria Colleen Swensen Rhoads - Born May 1, 1943 - Died October 5, 2006 - Rest In Peace.
