Released: "Desperate"

Finally, I've completed my primary project: "Desperate". I put a ridiculous amount of time and effort into this project, even though the video only turned out to be a little over two minutes long. I love the quality of the outcome, though. It was the worth the time making it, in my opinion. Check it out on YouTube. Hope you enjoy it.

I'm expecting to start working on the short UnKnown Moments project for Valentine's Day very soon. It's simply going to be a short scene (predicting about 30-40 seconds long) with "Happy Valentine's Day" at the end of it. Hey, it's not a whole sequel, but at least you'll see some new content from the series before a whole year passes by.

Status Update: "Desperate"

My primary project, code-name "Desperate", is about three-fourths done and near completion. It's about 2:15 long. I have twenty seconds left to work on, with the remaining time to be a simple closing with credits. I'm currently thinking about what footage I'm going to record for the last chorus.

Since this is definitely going to be completed soon, I guess it's time to get into some details. The background song is going to be "Meteor Shower" by Owl City. Yeah, Owl City. A little too mainstream, but it's probably one of the deepest songs on his album Ocean Eyes. All the shots are set on Davebrown's City 8 maps. It's about a guy who comes home to City 8 to find everyone dead from a very recent headcrab infestation, and his girlfriend is missing. The plot isn't straight-forward in the video, but it's easy to put together.

Like I said before, most of the scenes are mixed with a trance mood. The rest has a touch of depression, to match with the guy's situation in the plot.

I'm hoping I can have it out by this weekend. It depends how motivated I am to finish it these next 3-4 days.

Quick Update: New Project

The spontaneous urge to make a quickie project has hit me again! It's a small one-minute video of some good frags I did half a year back on Half-Life 2 Deathmatch. It will be up on YouTube very soon, once I complete the last few touches.

1/26/10 - "Hell Dweller" is now on YouTube.
