  • Rooftop Celebration

    Almost 6 months of work all came to an end this week as the convention came to a close. And to celebrate everything going well we all went out to a roof top bar overlooking the river and Bangkok, and then out to dinner after that.

    Had I known how awesome the view was going to be I would have brought a camera, but as it turned out all I had was my iPhone, which is no real camera. So, these few crappy photos are what I have (the exterior shot was taken a few days ago with my good camera). Once I get photos from everybody else (after the trip is complete) I’ll have some better ones for sure (and a few that I’m in as well).

    It was the perfect evening to celebrate. As bad as these photos look, they actually look much better on Flickr.

  • Last Video Done and Out the Door

    All 6 videos are done and the last 2 of them play Friday morning. One at the start of the session, and one at the end. This one here is the morning video, and is probably the best of all 6 that I cut.

    Tomorrow morning I’m planning on getting up early (instead of sleeping late again) and going to the convention center to see the last few played on the big screen, as well as take some behind the scenes stills. I’m excited because most of the time I’m still editing and can’t make it to the convention center before the job is over.

  • Missing my Boys

    Brenda has been nice enough to send me photos of the boys almost everyday. I miss them like crazy, and the photos are nice but make me miss them even more. From what I understand Andrew is now riding a bike and Max just started learning Spanish. I hope I don’t miss too many more developments!

    Of course I miss Brenda as well, but we’ve had to be apart for trips like this before, so it’s nothing new. The boys are so new to us that being away 2 weeks just seems like an eternity.

  • Video 1, Done

    I actually did two videos today, but here is the first one. It plays tomorrow morning (in less then 6 hours) during the opening sessions at the convention center. It’s considered the “welcome video”, and just shows a bunch of people from different countries saying “hello”.

    I have to edit 6 videos total before the end of the week.

  • Night Tuk-Tuk Ride

    This movie is from our last evening in Chiang Mai. We went out to dinner and used the Tuk-Tuk’s to get around. This clip is probably longer then it really needs (even though it’s a lot shorter then the original) but it’s an interesting way to see what the city looks like, and how crazy the traffic and driving is at times.
