Posts Tagged whoa I’m updating?

Man, starting work has kept be outrageously busy. By the time I wake up, commute to work, work, commute home, make dinner and the chat with the fam, I’m ready for bed. So unfortunately still struggling to find time to do some work, but alas. Was determined to get at least something out this weekend, so I did a quick speedpaint.

Inspired by an FIT girl I saw walking down the street. I’m not lying when I say her hips were leading. It was pretty great, and yes, she did have an umbrella and the hat. Someday I’ll animate this too.

Demo Reel 2009 from Kelly Mermelstein on Vimeo.

My demo reel as of 2009. I know it needs plenty and plenty of updates, but it’s certainly a beginning. All have to start somewhere, eh?

Anyways, comments and criticism is muchly appreciated. I know there’s nothing terribly new on it, but it can’t hurt to ask.

As far as site stuff goes? It’s basically done, likely with lots of tweaking and tinkering in the future. If anyone sees something glaring let me know. Other than that, I know lots of things still look weird, halfassed and lazy, and I’ll get to those. Eventually. Yes.

Either way, have a new project in mind. After watching lots of Carnivale (a series that sadly met its demise way too early on), and been sort of on a Dustbowl/30s Depression Era kick lately, so I have ideas for a new piece. Here’s to hoping I can get it off the ground now that I’m essentially done here. Here’s hoping!

I also realize I’m very nocturnal. Can’t wait to see the range of posts and times I end up using. I’m sure there’s a widget somewhere to figure that all out for me. For my first time dealing with Wordpress, I actually quite like.

Well, it’s been an absurdly long time since I’ve actually done anything useful with Antipyretic, so I’ve decided to screw it and completely and utterly revamp the place.

Supposedly it’s good for your chi to do this occasionally, and I need all the good chi I can scrap together.

So at anyrate, this is the new place, and I’m still naturally moving in. Please don’t mind the tweaks and changes I’ll probably be fiddling with for weeks to come. If there’s something absolutely glaring and want me to know about it, either mark up my comments or stalk me through email.

So yes. Clean slate, and completely different than anything I’ve done before. Let’s hope this’ll actually encourage me to post more and be a little more active than I know I have been lately. Do enjoy your stay, and if you don’t mind waiting, there will be dessert with that coffee soon enough.
