MAERSK TRAIN TOMORROW!!!

YYYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! It comes tomorrow, and I can't wait! I have reserved them from my LEGO Store, and I will get them tomorrow, and have a review! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

New Intro Part II

Okay guys, I hear you. Today, I watched a couple more tutorials, and did some more experimenting, and made a really cool updated version of the old logo! It's on a black background this time, and has a really cool twist at the end. I don't know when you'll see it though, but it might be on the MAERSK TRAIN REVIEW!!! YEAH!! I get it in less than a week! I am so excited!

New Intro

Since I have gotten my new computer, I have begun learning how to use Adobe After Effects. Yesterday, I learned how to make cool animated titles, and I threw one together for the Dump Truck review. Now, a lot of people are saying that they like the new intro. Should I keep it? It was really meant to be temporary. Tell me in the comments below.

New Computer for Video!

I just got a new computer! It is SUPER FAST and it's going to let me make movies so much faster and all around better! Just in case you are a nerd like me, and you care, here are the system specs.

3.2 GHZ Intel Core i7 Quad Core w/ Hyper Threading and Turbo Boost
1 GB nVidia GTX 460 Graphics Card
4 GB RAM
2 TB HDD

This computer scores a 5.4 on the Windows Experience Index, due to the eco-friendly hard drive. Either way, this thing is really quick, and it will definitely run After Effects, which will allow me to make the coooooolest special effects in my movies!

Birthday stuff!

Well, my birthday is over. Here's what I got!
- ALL LEGO Power Functions needed to motorize the 10219 Maersk Train! (Which I am buying 2 of on April 1st, the day it comes out)
- 7631 Dump Truck! It's actually discontinued now, so I am happy to have gotten it!
- A mini tripod! I needed this. Badly.
- Super Mario Galaxy 2! Because not all of my time is spent animating.
- A trip to India! Yeah! Over the summer, I am going to India to make websites with my uncle!
- A BRAND NEW CUSTOM COMPUTER!!! I get to pick out the components, and we will have ordered them by next weekend. This computer will allow me to use the CS5 software I got for Christmas, and I know that After Effects will make all my movies much better!
- $50! I am NOT going to spend this on LEGO. Well, maybe...

Read the post below.

I've had this little idea that I have been playing around with for a while, and tonight, I am scripting it out and I'm going to make it soon! The Runaway train movie is postponed and will be rewritten for the Maersk Train, and this new one will be out before that. Anyway, that's all. Seeya.

Today's the Day!

Well, actually tomorrow is, but if you've read the last post, then you'll know why I'm so excited! Anyway, any time now, my dad will get home, and the festivities will begin! I can't wait!

Art Deco Poster

I made this using a real picture and Photoshop.

What does it mean? You tell me.

1 Day Left!

What? One day? But it was 3 days yesterday!

Well, here's what happened. It turns out I am REALLY busy on Friday, so, I get my birthday a day early! Woo-hoo!

3 Days Until My Birthday!

I CAN'T WAIT!!! There are only 3 days left until the best day of the year! My birthday! That's right! I'll be turning 16 on Friday, the 11th, and I can't wait! My birthday wish list is as follows:
New computer for editing movies
SWEET Special Effects Clip packages
Power Functions for the Maersk Train
New Camcorder
Mini tripod for filming
Mini desk light for filming
and some video games

Some of this stuff I KNOW I'm getting (computer), and I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

Computer in the Shops

Well, I've got some potentially bad news. My trusty laptop has been with me for exactly three years, and that just happens to be how long the warranty was! During this warranty, there were free computer checkups and other things like that, and I have decided to capitalize on that for the very last time, so my computer is now being checked at Best Buy, which means no new videos today or tomorrow. I am posting this from my trusty (but slooooooowwww) Mac, which is what I usually use to make music, so I'll still be able to check comments and stuff. Don't worry.

EDIT: And we're back.
