UPDATE! (Yes it is related to "Dinosaur Daze")

Sorry for the delay.
Yesterday, I got an e-mail from Adam saying that he will fix the projector he bought recently.
He told me to check back in mid Feburary.
Hopefully, it would be ready.  Don't expect a Superbowl Spot coming this year. 
Here is hoping for the best.

Video Installation (2012)

This was a video installation assignment for Video II.  I shot myself in two different angles.  It was challenging, but hey, it was worth it.

Enjoy.

Counter Culture (2012)

This was the final assignment for Video II. Since I enjoyed making NOTHING ON TV, I wanted to use the three-screen projection system again, and I had a fascination with the counterculture (which came out of curiosity), I made this video, exploring goths, punks, and tattoos.

Enjoy.

Nothing on TV (2012)

This is a Video II assignment where we have to use the three screen projections projection. I made this because I was mad at the way television was going back then. There was reality TV dominating the airwaves and various shows with negative messages telling us to succumb to negativity. Not only in live-action but animation too. The cartoons not only had that, but they were messed up in terms of their stories, carried eyesore character designs and carry out shock moments (i.e. the stuff that can make Scooby-Doo look like Sesame Street). It made me miss the old days, where there was none of that stuff. Kids would watch cartoons unattended with no worries from the parents (because there was no TV-PG rating).
This is my exercise in social commentary.

Enjoy.

Trash Chutte Trouble (2012)

For Film II class I was assigned to make a short 16mm color film that uses color. I was going to use color gels for experimentation. Here, I chose, red for rage, yellow for fear and blue for sadness. The class liked it.

Enjoy.

Track Creeps (My Edit) (2012)

For Film II, the class has to be in a crew. I was the Sound-Man. I recorded the sound. This was my friend's Noah project. The next step was that the student is going edit their own version of TRACK CREEPS with style. It started out as a homage to Hammer horror films and ends by all means of Benny Hill (with a shade of goofiness). The original cut will be shown soon.

Enjoy.

Ten Object Project (2012)

For this Animation II assignment, we had to use random objects, change them from one thing to another without the aid of digital effects. It has to be done practically. I sought advice from Flip Johnson and he told me to look at the films of Jan Svankmajer. I did and I researched some of the works of Al Jarnow (if I were you, I would look up the film CELESTIAL NAVIGATIONS THE SHORT FILMS OF AL JARNOW). After following the advice and research, I made it and it worked. This was shown in one of the Animation All School Shows and it was a hit. Enjoyable with a capital E! I hope you enjoy it.

Oh Those Questions! (2011)

This was video assignment I made for a Video I or II I think. Here, I heard about the apocalypse is coming in like a year (but it didn't happen). The ending will get a reaction out of you.
Enjoy.

The Visitors 2: The Helping (2012)

For Animation II, the class was assigned to make a Chindogu project. It is a Japanese art of making a simple gadget that would solve everyday problems, but that gadget is really ridiculous. Mine was a face mask to protect you from people who sneeze and cough without covering their mouths! During production, I was violently ill with a cold. It was spring 2012, flu season was happening, and Disney's JOHN CARTER came out. With that, I decided to let the aliens make a comeback. I decided to make a sequel. When it was shown, I was better (no duh thanks to Alka-Seltzer).
Enjoy.
