Monster Ad’s

I’m really interested by advertisements, but the majority of them really suck. These two for Monster (you know, that job website) are really incredible.

“Legs” and “Slots.”

An Awesome Video

So this video is really awesome:

The music is cute and simple. Not that amazing, but pretty cool. Now what really grabs me is the compositing. The production values are pretty low, I mean, it looks like they filmed it in their apartment, but the green screen work is so good. It’s a really cool idea, and it was pulled off really well.

It makes me want to do something similar. I spent the summer compositing beauty pageant instructional videos, I need to use my skills on something better. Something awesome. I just don’t know what, yet.

ビデオを見ましょう！

These are some videos that I made. They are from quite some time ago, since I am a lazy ass and have not uploaded my latest piece. Which I really ought to do. Hopefully I’ll have it finished this weekend. We need to rerecord some of the dialog.

The Dangler, AKA Yitzchaq. This is the one with the illegal use of Gogol Bordello. There is a different version, if anyone is interested, here: http://maiamaiam.deviantart.com/art/Yitzchaq-Working-Title-66616165

Yatta Montage. The first thing I ever edited together. I am still vaguely proud of it.

The Beginning

Greetings and salutations.

I had a sudden urge to start a blog. Not really sure why, but I have been pondering it for a while. I am not sure how it will go, I’ve done it in the past, but it never amounted to much. It was most frequently used to whine about my hopeless teenager existence or to say OMG a lot… I am hoping this will turn out a little better.

It’s just that, recently, I have felt that I have a lot more important shit to say. I have developed interests in many new and exciting things, and I would like to be able to share some of those thoughts with people. Sometimes.

Be aware, there may at times be some whining, but I’ll try to keep that to a minimum. ;P

So, for now, Maia out.
