Had some fun this past Halloween – I usually will carve a pumpkin but our team at work entered a contest. Our theme was LAW & ORDER so I was tasked to build a courtroom out of cardboard for the smaller pumpkins. I even used an old iPhone to play […]
So my Brother in law has a project for our next Oct 2019 studio shoot that will require some of his talent to sing and present long, long lines of dialog. He thought of using a teleprompter and I told him I had built one (see link here) but it’s […]
Last weekend we had the pleasure of staying with our friends in Austin. That meant the obligatory field trip (for me) to Frys Electrionics and Precision Camera and Video. I didn’t realize that PC was having an Inventory sale of sorts. They had lots of good vintage stuff out on […]
