Photo Dump - A month's worth

I really suck at taking pictures, because I'm not the world's most motivated photographer. Nevertheless I like to have records of stuff to comfort me in my future old age. Here's a bunch of piled up photos from the last month or so.






Macheath arrives at my house just before Blizzcon in his beat up car. Okay, it's not THAT bad of a car.













Typical Blizzcon scene: Lots of people watching lots of stuff.













PvP gaming, live before your very eyes!








They brought in an amazing amount of computers so everyone could try their new games.















Despite all the technology surrounding us I was most fascinated by this really powerful random beam of light on the floor.





















Halloween Masks. Or LARPing masks too, if you're into that sort of thing.


















Scary chick from Starcraft.













Mac and Drewbie from Oblivious films









Jo and Terran (SMOKING OMG) from Blizzard















This is the roof of the Anaheim convention center. In case you were curious.












Also on the roof.

















View of Disneyland from the roof. Can you tell I really liked the roof.













They made the 'A' into a candy corn...see how clever that was. If only I had changed my camera settings so every outdoor shot didn't turn out blue. And I call myself a film school graduate.







A dragon pumpkin I carved for Halloween.














'Ware the dwagon.



















I went to NYC in early November for the Machinima Fest.










Pretty pretty central park. Look, they have fall over there!












What they are doing at Ground Zero now. Rebuilding, pretty much.














I totally LOL'ed at this ad.















The Machinima Festival at the Eyebeam Center in NYC.













The lobby. This is usually some kinda modern art museum, I take it.

















People crowd around to listen to machinima presentations.









"Pinkhair". I was somewhat shocked at his lack of pink hair.

















Ian Beckman browses the internet.


















Last but not least, a picture I took the other day of my dog, Kenji, that I liked.

Snacky 4 wins Blizzcon 2008 Movie Contest :O

Well, we won...again....lol. I really was surprised, however. I never imagined we'd win twice in a row! Thanks Blizzard! This year they gave out a cool bronze gnome statue, the "Oswald". I'll post pics of that when I actually get it as they weren't ready at the time. More on Blizzcon later + pics!

Snacky's Journal Nominated



Snacky's Journal (the show) has been nominated for 4 Mackies - Best Directing, Writing, Editing, and Series! Woot! Also, "The Return of the Revenge of Dr. Mechanico" and "The Ballad of the Noob" were honorary mentions in the Best Virtual Performance and Best Music categories.

Thanks to the Academy of Machinima Arts and Sciences for the nominations. I think I am going to be flying out to New York this time for the festival. "The Revenge of Dr. Mechanico" was nominated at their last award ceremony in 2006 but I didn't go (and didn't win :P). Yes, they skipped last year for unknown reasons.

The festival page is here, for any of you who live in New York and would like to attend.

I accidentally reset the blog
