Canwest For the Win!

Hey guys,


Well Canwest was a smashing success in my opinion. It seems that they get better each and every year. Thanks to Laird and Kitty for putting it on; you guys did a great job.

I handed a pilot episode disc to 8 VIP's at Canwest; mainly Joel Heyman (Caboose), Knuckles Dawson, Max Dyckhoff (Bungie AI Engineer), Jon Graham (Digitalph33r), Luke McKay, Eric Neustadter (Xbox Live), Nathan (Ragingterror), Kathleen Zuelch (Tex).

If the afforementioned people are looking at this, email me or comment on this entry :)
So after I get some response from the "piloteers" I'm going to put the episode on You Tube for all to see on June 1st (Next Sunday).

Like I said, I got to meet Digitalp33r there and he's a really cool guy. Arby and the Chief: The Movie was probably the funniest thing he's ever made. Good on ya, mate!

We got to see the first episode of RED VS. BLUE: RECONSTRUCTION which looks super cool. The visual effects were OH-MY-GOD-worthy. Joel was there being his usually funny self. So was Becca Fraser (Sister).

Here are some pictures of the event:



Me and Jon Graham
Me and Luke
Me and Joel
Awesome x3
Nathan, that lucky bastard, won Recon Armor in a raffle... I know you're reading this Terror; you are one lucky son of a bitch!

Unfortunately, though my friend Alex (Parts) had pictures with these guys too they turned out blurry for no reason at all...



Well that's about it.

Here we are... approaching a crossroads to Machinima history. Within the next month the pilot episode of "Xero Hour: Standoff" will be online for all to see because today I finally got my capture software in the mail! Yay!

Well, except for Canwest (which will rock hard) there's no other real news... See ya online.

Cheers,
Matt

April Update

Well the filming is finished and now I'm just waiting for the software coming in the mail to capture the video and edit. So not much to report...

Canwest is coming up, and you better be there!

Side Note: I turn 16 tomorrow, so in the near future the roads of Vancouver are going to be alot more dangerous :)



Cheers,

Matt
