2012: What to Expect When Everyone Thinks the World Is Ending
OK, so this post isn’t about 2012. Well, it is…but not in an apocalyptic sort of way. Unless I name my next album “The World Is Ending” or “The Mayans Were Right About 2012″ or some such thing…
What I will tell you is that I have a lot of things going on, musically and webbily. I’m working on a new disc or two, maybe each an EP, but I do have a tendency to get carried away, so we’ll see how long each is in the end. All my works are unabridged, so you get some pretty long songs and those songs might trail off into lala-land, because I really don’t edit them for time or content. Working on a few websites and realizing as I write this how neglected my own is because of this. Just no time for that when I’m trying to do good work for others that deserve a good website to help achieve their dreams.
I did buy a Canon HD Camcorder and have taken lots of classes on Final Cut (NOT X, mind you). I also upgraded my Adobe CS to the Production 5.5 (I think 5.5 was the latest) during the summer, so I have Photoshop Extended, Premiere and After Effects. Since the FCX thing happened, I’ve been looking at migrating. Since I’ve been using Adobe CS since 2002, I figured this might be a good opportunity to see what Adobe could offer in terms of the moving picture.
Speaking of pictures: Many more pictures to come. I have a lot of artsy fartsy photo projects that I should probably get up soon. They’ve been sitting, along with loads of music, on my hard drive all year (also had to buy another external hard drive to keep up with all this space-consuming audio and video), and I could share them at any time, once I get a chance.
And SO…that’s a 2011 year-end wrap and a little preview of The End of the Mayan Calendar for any who happen upon this site. Stay tuned. >>>>>>>>>
