(Doing some Green Screen testing for the music video)

The major piece of news is that Steven, my brother Robbie, and I are working on a music video for an original song Steven and I are writing; the song is in the fun electric pop style we've used in "Payphone" and "Someone Like you."  We're still developing music video ideas, but we've been experimenting, and the effects we're working on are really cool.  Naturally I'm a little biased :0)  But I'm excited with what we're working on.  Green screen = many fun opportunities.  Our goal is to have the song released on an EP (with another original song, karaoke tracks, and a couple instrumental songs) no later then the middle of next month.  So much to do in such a short amount of time!!  But it's exciting.

And I'm still working on the Jason Mraz song, "Living in the Moment," on the guitalele.  That's coming soon.

Steven and I learned a lot this week along with my brother Robbie.  We were going to do a movie review series.  We did a trial run with the Tinker Bell movie, and were working on doing Wreck-It Ralph.  The problem was that in order for us to produce a quality Youtube video series, it would take 3-4 days out of the week to put it together; it was taking time away from what was most important to us.  Music and the possibility of making cool videos.  So after a week going down the wrong path, we turned ourselves around.  There's still a possibility of having a movie review show in the future, but at this time it's not right.  Ah!  At least we lost only a week and not more.  But now we're focused and enjoying the work.
