So after I wake up, I'll be hittin it with the fam, and then spending my time with a special person to basically eat dinner and watch movies all night long. Sweeet

And then basically a party that's sports/ birthday party the next day seeing as it's SUPERBOWL TIME!

Oh, and I read some interesting news posts that put a smile on my face. And here I wasn't mean about someone taking full advantage of my time by making me feel horrible. Karma; it strikes.

w00ts 'n h00ts!

This Holiday season has been sucky, but it's a thousand times better than last year at least. MERRY CHRISTMAS. Or whatever

I've made it to stage 2 for voice tryouts for an animation! Getting this mic and considering voice acting more is paying off slowly :D

Well I'm off to enjoy a great weekend! Just relaxing before I take the drive to Columbus! If you want a little detail on that, just go back a news post to see what's up.
EDIT: Change in plans. I'll be driving a straight shot to Cincinnati (which isn't that bad; only 3.5 hours) to stay the night. Friend had problems for today)

If you haven't heard, there was a Pirate Voice Acting Contest that ended yesterday. I submitted one myself here.

It's 14 seconds over, but the contest restrictions in time were really meant for the animators so they didn't have to animate a super amount for their part of the competition. Anyone want to give this sound bite a shot? ;3

Anyway, have a great weekend everyone! I know I will ^u^

First, I head to Columbus to go out drinking and possibly go on some college campus radio station drunk and talk live for a couple hours.

Then I head to Cinci to see my girl for the weekend and watch the fireworks for labor day ^_^

Drunken live radio and a weekend with my babe? Win.

All the hell of getting shit prepared for college is finally over. Now I'm IN college, haha! I assume I'll get busy again, but as of right now I'm caught up and have some free time! I took the time to audition for some newgrounds related flashes (and some not so related to newgrounds :D). I'm also writing a few scripts for some new animations I plan on working on during the freetime I have between classes at college! I'm hoping to have some stuff out for you guys soon!

I think I'm also going to try out for this contest and see how well I do. I'm still relatively new to the voice acting scene, but so far it's all been thumbs up! if you need any voices, check out my latest Voice test and I might be able to work something out :D

EDIT:

Also look at my new submission for the voice acting competition for talking like a pirate :D

...and I'm done with college! At least with my first degree. I go back for a Bachelors in Graphic Design this Spring! YAY!

And I love some of the things people create with it

Just yesterday, I purchased myself an MXL USB.006 microphone. After testing it out, it sounds MARVELOUS. It sounds near professional, which is much more then what a flash series or cartoon needs.

I tested it out quite a lot, and I will admit that I DO need a pop filter first. After that, I plan on animating again, and perhaps even voice acting for some flashes! I'm quite happy over this purchase, and I hope to see that it was just as smart of a purchase as this Wacom tablet!

A lot of people have been telling me to get in to voice acting, and my excuse was that my microphone sucked. I no longer have that excuse. Maybe I'll come up with another? haha. If you do ask, I want to see what you have done in your flash and what it's about. I don't want to voice act shitty sprite or stick flashes >8(

***EDIT***

Decided to do a Voice Test. Note how I don't say "Demo". I did it with no script or added music or whatever the professionals do. Just wanted to hear how it sounded. Sounded alright. Maybe it'll sound better when I PLAN FOR IT.
