SPECIAL GUEST!!!!

Here’s my latest video in which I interview a very special guest…

Behind the Scenes

Hey guys, small update concerning the blog. I asked some people on Facebook if they would be more interested in the blog if I started posting behind the scenes videos. The answer was yes. Here’s the thing: I think it’s a good idea, and I do sort of like it, but I’m not going to commit. I barely have enough time to produce weekly videos as it is. So I am doing a behind the scenes video for this week’s video, but let’s not get our hopes up for more in the future.

Sorry if this post was kind of a downer, I’m simultaneously editing and having a headache…

Hey, guys. I’m a little late posting this, but here’s Monday’s video:

New Year’s Resolution

Hello again, everyone. I’ve been away for a while, but I’m back now with some news. First of all, you may have seen my posts on Twitter about my starting a new YouTube channel, what to call it, rethinking it, etc. Well, I’d just like to put that to rest by saying that I have decided NOT to start a new channel, and I will be staying put on my current channel. My thought is this: I have really only just begun on this channel, I’m amassing views and subscribers (slowly, but surely) and I feel that things are just starting with this channel, and it would be unwise to walk away from that and start over. Again, things are just beginning to happen with my YouTube channel, and I have no plans to move anytime soon.

Second, the topic of this post’s title. My new year’s resolution is this: I shall try my very hardest to do a weekly vlog from here on out. I figure that if I really want to get serious about this, I have to work hard at it, and put out videos regularly. If you’re going to be a content creator, there needs to be a somewhat constant stream of content being produced, or you might as well not do it in the first place. I’ll try to post on the blog more often, though it’ll probably remain sporadic as ever. I will, however, post whenever a new video comes out, so that the blog can remain as an accessible catalog of both my videos and these posts.

I’d just like to thank everyone who has helped me by subscribing, watching and commenting on my videos, and just for being there while I took this wild leap into the unknown of my dream. I’m feeling really good about 2011. I’m becoming more organized, more motivated, and more in-tune with what I need to be doing. I can’t wait to see how this year unfolds. It’s going to be a great year, I can feel it.

Thank you for everything, happy holidays, and a happy new year to you all!

I’m Not Dead!

Here’s my latest video detailing why I’m taking a bit of a break from vlogging.

Awesome Gaming Charity of Awesomeness!

Hey, guys. So I’m not sure if you’ve heard of the charity Child’s Play, but you will now.

Child’s Play is “a community based charity grown and nurtured from the game culture and industry.” Basically, it’s a charity made up of gamers that helps give books, toys, games, and other things to sick kids all over the world. I’ll be brief, but you can check out the full story and DONATE at their website.

http://childsplaycharity.org

On their site, you can choose from a multitude of children’s hospitals to donate to specifically, or you can donate via PayPal or text message by texting GAMERS to 50555 to donate $5.

I really like this charity’s message, and I especially like that they are made up of gamers and supported by a whole bunch of game companies, such as Valve, PopCap, Nintendo, Microsoft, and many, many more!

I’m going to put up a banner in support of this charity, and to remind you to think of those less fortunate than you this holiday season by giving the gift that we all hold so dear, video games.

Graphic Design job

As none of you know, my sister is the editor in chief of the literary journal at her college. Since I have been creating the headers for her blog for some time now, she came to me when she needed someone to design an informational postcard that they would be passing out for the journal. Anyway, you can check out my design on the new Graphic Design / Headers page by hovering over “Portfolio” at the top of this page, and clicking on Graphic Design / Headers, or by clicking right here.

You can check out the literary journal’s website at http://jetfuelreview.com

and their blog at http://lewislitjournal.wordpress.com

New design, and vlog hiatus

Hey, guys!

Sorry about disappearing for a while. Things have been busy with school, and I haven’t had the time to make new vlogs or post things here. I will try to be more active soon, and I hope to have a new video out soon explaining things a bit.

Also, I have changed the look of the blog! I chose a new theme: Spectrum (hence the color) and added a new header. Love it? Hate it? Didn’t notice? Blind? Tell me what you guys think in the comments.

Hope to see you guys online soon, and stay tuned to this blog and my youtube channel for more info!
