I'm in a funk and need to get out. I have no problem watching a movie a day, but find it more and more difficult to get my video projects done. Work or scheduling issues seem to keep getting in the way. An artist I know set out on a project to make a drawing a day as a way to deal with these problems. I've decided to use a Flip camera and iMovie to make one short video sketch a day. Some narrative, some not, hopefully some interesting. We'll see what happens when there are no excuses.

3.29.10 – What’s Underneath
This view of the trees and grass through the window screen reminded me of coloring projects at school when I was a child. We would use a cigar box and color it with lots of varied colors, then cover it all with black crayon, finally using an unfolded paper clip to scrap images or words. When I think back now, it seemed like such a tedious thing to do; yet I recall loving the process and the scraping noise, looking for what was underneath.
Below are some lovely awards from Jesse Noe Mendez. Thanks, Jesse! Best of luck on your move.
