Web Page-UPDATED

I think I'll change the format of the site away from facebook, and more towards a wikipedia format. The only subject, however, will be myself, with various link branching out to various aspects of my life, and achievements. Granted, the vast majority of these won't actually be true, and will be exaggerated comically. The structure will be almost exactly like wikipedia, but with my own symbols, pictures, etc.

With the advent of all these wiki's based on needless things (tv shows, for example), I think it'd be funny to have a site where someone can get to know the "real" me. Every aspect of my life will be written out, such as my triumphant defeat against the womb, and my brief, yet memorable appearance on The Jeffersons. I want to exploit the weakness of society's dependence on "useless" facts, and compulsion-like need to relate to the source material.

RE: Movie
I saved it as a quicktime, .mov, and something, but every time it says there's a "critical error." Even though these words frighten me, I think I'll try to shrink it, and see where that gets me.

I can web it all day long

For my web project, I'm going to parody typical teen websites, such as facebook and myspace. I think it's funny how much "truth and honesty" people put on these things, and I'm going to exploit that. It'll look like my homepage, with friend updates and the like. Depending on the time, I'll write fictional notes and backgrounds to some of the characters, and have an inbox with these things. I'll have a picture folder, which will probably end up being the same as my facebook one, just because I already have those on hand.

I'll need to come up with a parody-esque title, but that'll come during development. I think that exploring the more "embarrassing" aspects of life will be the primary focus--I once took all the responses to Obama's victory and published it as a note. Quite a few people apologized to me personally, not realizing that I was just making fun of them and their beliefs. This sort of thing will serve as the base of my project, and I'll build up from there.

Also, I still can't upload my flash project. Still working on it though.

I watch the Watchmen

For the past week and a half, I've been using flash to make a poorly drawn cartoon. After four days of trying to make something look awesome based off of my original concept, I've decided to abandon that entirely. My new project revolves around the pivotal scene in Watchmen, in which the Comedian's smiley button falls several stories. It is a very prominent scene, and I wanted to try my hand at it.

My version will be very cartoony, since that's kind of what I do. It's a fairly simple animation, and I'm not sure what I can add aside from the obvious blood drips, and falling schematic. Most of my efforts in class will revolve around making the background fairly detailed, so that it can at least have a nice visual aesthetic to it. I also intend to add some sound to it, so that the whole thing isn't horribly boring to those who don't know where it came from.
