Busy As Can Be
I'd like to make the excuse that the last month I've been too busy to blog. Well, it's only partly true. If I wanted to make the time, I probably could have. So this entry is to bring you up to speed on what's being going on.
First, I purchased a cool OBEY print, supposedly signed by Shepard Fairey. There is also a show going on at EVO by a local collector. You should check it out.
So I've been working away with Nimbus Independent. The DVD edit is finished and I have to say Eric Pollard is the man. So talented and driven to get things done and on time. We are in the authoring, encoding and replication phase. I'm proud to say we'll have the first DVD or ski film done for the upcoming season. It's got an amazing soundtrack and great creative. Check out the box art.
Working at Spacecraft has been a fun filled adventure. All the people who work there are great, the product is cool and the potential is high. Did some great media buys and have been in full on business planning mode. It's nice to get out of the house and go downtown three days a week.
I have a new roommate, Mark, who's moving in as I'm typing. I've being rolling solo for a while, which in some ways is nice, but I'm glad to have some company. We've been friends through the years, were in the same fraternity in college and have the same group of friends. He's also pretty clean from what I hear, so the pad should remain nice.
My buddy from Norway, Endre Loovas came to town again for the 4th of July. The man is twice my size but insists that I drink just as much. Whew, fun to go out on the town with the man. His accent draws a nice contingent of ladies. I am his wingman.
Last weekend I got out of town and rolled down to Mt. Hood. Drove down with Andy and his wife, swung by Pollard's and proofed the movie. Then after a short business session, drove up to Government Camp and checked in at the Huckleberry Inn. We were in town for the Think Thank film premier of Stack Footy. Spacecraft is a sponsor and Andy a good friend of the filmmaker, Jesse Burtner. The kids came out in force to support the project and it was fun evening. After the film we went across the street to Charlies and enjoyed drink tall boys.
The next day we hooked up with Christina and Lindsey and went for a hike to a beautiful waterfall. It was great to get some exercise and be in nature. Check out a few of the pictures.
That's about it for now. Just working all weekend on film tour, the film itself, business planning and catching up. Too much to do, but it's better than being bored.
