Calming down

Things are finally starting to calm down a little. We submitted, and then resubmitted to Gamma after talking with Heather Kelley. Heather Kelley is a part of Kokoromi, and lucky us she also works at the EMC. Last Tuesday Chris, Max, and I went down to Burlington, and we had a chance to speak with Kelley about our game. She gave us some feedback, and told us to resubmit with our changes.

Speaking of the EMC... They just had their grand opening. I went down for it, and it was awesome! I am excited to maybe work there next semester or over the summer. The entire facility is homey yet savvy looking, and there are plenty of workstations set up in pods. I really like the pod structure. I find that it fosters team work. It feels as if the table the computers are at is the project, and you are all in a circle concentrating on a physical embodiment of your project.

Now I have to concentrate on my Seminar project.

Super Busy

Lots of stuff going on. Just submitted "Falling" to Gamma. The selected get announced November first. I have been working furiously to try and get my portfolio site. I visited my girlfriend this weekend. It was great to see her, but I got zero work done. I have class all day Tomorrow, and I probably won't be able to work on the website till Tuesday. I need to finish my milestones for my schmup project (due Friday), and get my website done. Wish me luck with my work.

Portfolio

I am finally creating something that can be considered a portfolio. I have started construction of a website that will house my works. Production of the website has begun and it is turning out well, but I still need to purchase the domain and web space. As soon as I get the domain, I plan on ordering business cards. Then, at MIGS I can hand out my card to people with a link to my website. I am super excited about this. I feel like all my work the past couple of years is finally congealing into something real. I just hope the web hosting doesn't end up being sassy. I think I am going to go with godaddy for my hosting. Wish me luck with my website. I'll post a link when it is up.

Distractions

I have done very little work this past week. First I became addicted to Heroes. Wow that is a good show, but I ran out of episodes to watch, so that is no longer plaguing me. Then I got the urge to play Vampires The Masquerade: Bloodlines. It is one of my favorite games. It is a first person role playing game set in the Masquerade universe. It is filled with dark intricately twisting story lines, and hypersexualized vampires culture. It is the most immersive game that I have ever played. Luckily Max has sorta taken charge on the Gamme project, and we actually have a schedule now. I have to make some art assets for Monday. We'll see how that goes.
