May 25 Photo Roll

Here's a little photo roll to reinvigorate myself as I have blog ideas aplenty, swirling about in my head, that need to become real.


Oh, and please excuse the music - I created it super quick and I'm not musical at all.

Conceptionalization of the Green Screen

Image
It has been on my to-do list for quite some time and, finally, I have created a video with a green screen.
