Dump Run

Posted in Video on April 4, 2009 | 11 Comments »

We took those dead rosemary bushes to the dump and I decided to make a movie out of it. It’s called Dump Run, though I’m supposing I should have called it Landfill Run because it is, afterall, the “No. 1 Landfill in North America”.

Tuesday Recap & A Film I Made

Posted in Video on March 31, 2009 | 11 Comments »

Buck, in the middle of a mountain of spent rosemary bushes.   After setting up my new blog to prevent the AWFULNESS of certain freelance writers from offending my precious, precious eyes, and then setting up some books and DVDs to review for work, and then poking my sister and choosing the “5 Best Albums [...]

We actually left the house today, a monumental event that I captured with my video camera.

Thank God this [...]

Yesterday’s Flood

Reflection of a tree in a puddle on our patio. We got hit with the tail end of Hurricane Dolly yesterday. According to the El Paso Times we received 3-inches of rain in a matter of minutes — and I can totally testify to that. That’s the way it goes here in El Paso…you’re dry [...]

Video Test: Beatles Haircut

Posted in Video on July 25, 2008 | 16 Comments »

I bought a video camera today, an RCA Small Wonder on sale for $30 at K-Mart. I brought it home and immediately tried it out on Buck. I don’t really know how to work it yet but here’s my test video. (Sorry about the incessant bird chirping in the background, I didn’t hear it til [...]
