On the bus! Altercation between the bus driver and a drunk guy made us glad we didn’t take a taxi!
Highlight real I edited for the 2012 Bayou, Bay & Back 5K/10K/Half Marathon.
(Thanks to Pastor Dani and Christopher Byron for shooting on the Canon XH-A1 and Canon 7D)
I figured something out about myself. I’m admittedly a nerd. I’ve been “into” computers ever since I was 5, and waited until my older brothers left for school, so I could mess around on their C64. I’ve had enough jobs that involved computers that I started delving into graphic design, then web design, and then video editing, all in the 90’s, and not only did I get “nerdy” about each of these fields, I realized that in all the fields, one particular aspect of each of those fields made it super-enjoyable for me, and I delved even deeper. This is what I call “specialized nerdity.” I love graphic design, but I’m super inspired by the typography aspect of it, and I’d spend all my time on just that if I could. I enjoy video editing, but I’ve discovered that my absolute favorite thing is the title sequence. I get more excited about the opening title sequence of a movie or TV show than I do about the plot. Fortunately, a huge part of my job at Shoreline Church is creating fresh title sequences (we call them message bumpers) for each new series. In fact, in all my areas of interest, I’ve found there’s a specific aspect that I really enjoy, study, and dedicate time to. In computing, it’s unix and shell scripting. In web design it’s PHP backend coding. In photography it’s time lapse. I know this is just a rambling of jumbled thoughts, but I’m finding the more I study a specific aspect of a subject, rather than the subject as a whole, the more I pay attention to detail, and the more enjoyment I get out of it. My tongue-in-cheek, official title at Shoreline is ‘Pastor of Tech, Media and Fonts’ and people laugh because of my “obsession” with fonts. But it’s what makes me good at what I do, and it’s what makes it enjoyable. I also enjoy being a part of a select “tribe” of fellow typophiles.
Logo I designed for Kidventure, our summer activities program for the Shoreline kids.
Front and back of the invite card I designed for the Fort Walton Beach Billy Bowlegs parade.
Amy has no problem wearing her feelings on her sleeve. Even when it’s the sleeve of her dad’s shirt.
Borrowed an Canon 5D and a 15mm 2.8 lens from some professional photographer friends. This is my little girl, Amy. So beautiful.
The first and foremost question to ask yourself when designing anything: would I be sold by this? Would I spend the money for the thing I’m advertising? Would I hire the person who’s business card I’m making? This is especially true if you’re designing for yourself.
The principal of the Gospel is this. To the receiver it brings life. To the giver it brings death.
Short answer: Electricity will find the shortest route to ground itself. It WANTS to ground itself, even if that means going through your expensive amp, or through your XLRs. In the US, electricity…
