I know, I know, I’m late to this party. But I really didn’t want to spent $5 to buy it on iTunes. Turns out you can stream Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog from Hulu. Thanks Hulu!
If you’re a Neil Patrick Harris fan (like me), or a Joss Whedon fan (like these people), or in search of funny musicals(?), you’ll love this.
This blog post from smashingmagazine.com showed up on page 1 of digg’s images (with 1413 diggs as of right now). My Tumbling Dice picture is #37 of the 45 examples. Just today it got over 2500 views on Flickr. Sweet!
The blurb on digg:
The Whole Crew
Summer Vacation is officially over. Today was our first day of the fall semester for our remote outpost of Carnegie Mellon’s Entertainment Technology Center, or ETC-SV (for Silicon Valley). This group shot is of the students, plus Jiyoung and me (faculty) and Michelle (staff) in front of the EA logo in Redwood Shores. Like last semester, EA is providing us with space – which we dearly love.
Linhan, Youngwook and Siyang were out here last semester, too, so there’s only five new names and faces to get to know.
One of this term’s projects is based out of Australia, so half the team is heading down under on Friday for a week. The rest of us are meeting with a local company on Friday to get acquainted with some very cool display technology. You can follow along on the ETC-SV blog that we just set up.
Four generations, all decendents of Nels and Lizzy, my Great Grandparents. If my Grandparents were still alive, five generations would be represented here. My farthest away relative at the event was a second cousin twice removed (and yes, I actually know what that means!).

Eric stumbled upon how to take pictures like this while we were walking inside a covered bridge in Yosemite. It’s as simple as taking a long exposure (about 1/2 second) while walking – the space between the vertical boards allow slits of light to be painted on the camera’s sensor. Eric and I each shot dozens of them. Here’s a few others I love:
School starts next week for all of us and our floors at home are getting refinished; both great reasons to head out for an (almost) last trip of the summer. We had heard about how beautiful Bass Lake is, so we headed out to spend a few days there. Since we were in the area we also visited Yosemite, and on the way home stopped at Lake McClure and spent the day with one of Kevin’s wakeboard coaches from West Coast Camps taking runs on the lake.

(It’s a video – click on it to play.)
I was planning to shoot a video similar to this with sounds from my car, but it will be weeks before I’m home long enough and have the time to do it. Meanwhile I’m sitting in LA watching the Olympics on TV and wishing I could be doing some video stuff. Then I realized my Verizon Dare has a respectable video camera in it – so I dove in taking advantage of what resources were available.
I shot 14 different shots, dumped them onto my laptop and edited in Adobe Premiere Elements. The whole thing took about 5 hours.
The rhythm was found through experimentation and needing to start and end with the light switch. I then built a bit of a story, or at least a timeline, into it.
Just askin’…
