A few years back, while working on shots for Killer Mountain, I set up my Nikon in order to capture the last 18 hours of my self-induced crunch time.
The last half of the video looks much better, as corrected my camera settings. You might even be able to make out some of the shots.
So yesterday I ran into an old acquaintance that I haven’t seen in 10 years. She recognized the name of one of my friends who used to throw parties, about 10 years ago. I told her that my old buddy is now living in Australia and that I missed his inspiration.
When I returned home, I started looking up animation stuff and came across a short animation with Batman, which lead to this great Javascript driven website which has inspired me to use JavaScript on my current project.
I went to bed shortly after reading an email from a life-coaching friend who stressed the importance of working collaboratively. “…life is a team sport and to get to the Superbowl we need a lot of support from many different avenues.”, she said.
In my sleep I thought of my buddy in Australia… and, little did I know, at that same moment, he was typing up an email. I haven’t heard from him in about 3 months, yet the next morning, I read his email where he was asking me to help with a visual effect he wants to do, which is practically identical to an effect I have been playing with for months. This was the day I planned on diving into 3D to tackle it. His email has provided me with additional motivation to get things moving again.
As a cherry on top, he finished his email by tagging it with “Batman” as his signature. Heh.
