I've been working on some new illustrations recently, say hello to one of the first ones "Alien Attack v2." This is a remake of an older illustration I created about a year ago. Keep checking back for the next few coming out soon.

Here's a screen capture showing how I illustrated the "Giant Mutant Bird" image. Unfortanutely I ran out of disk space halfway through so I couldn't capture the rest of the design process. But I think it covers a good amount of the illustration.

I'd also like to credit Alex Hannah with creating the score for the video.

Thursday, May 7, 2009 A to Z: Anthropomorphism and Zoomorphism Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human forms or characteristics to non-human beings or objects, and zoomorphism is the use of animal forms in the same way. Think: personification of inanimate objects or abstract things such as emotions, machines, shape-shifters, the weather, cars, gods and goddesses, patterns using animal imagery, mythological beings, etc.

Ok, so I work on a Mac at the office and most of the work I do is video editing. Recently my computer's performance has been a little off. Well, I defraged my computer today, that's right you do need to defrag your Mac! The Mac automatically defrags files 20 MB and under, well if you're a video editor or designer like myself, you're working with files way way way over 20 MB.

So here's the result, you can see the before and after of my computer's hard drive. Oh, and now a lot of problems I was having are now gone, so whoop!




The software used here is iDefrag.
