New Overshare! PLEASE share this on Facebook!: http://j.mp/ShareOS10

As it starts to get further away from 2001, it’s a little bit more ok for me to celebrate my birthday. Not this year, when all media everywhere was all about the 10 year anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks, but regardless of the year I’ve sort of learned to just embrace the weirdness of it all, since neither event is going to move. Could just ignore my birthday but I need some excuse to buy weirdly-expensive-considering-‘the economy’ cupcakes at least once a year.

I’ll be posting an outtake video on Dunya and our Facebook page soon— shot this episode at 12.30 am after a full pot of tea and slightly weird things happened, most of which surprisingly didn’t even make it into the final product. So look forward to that.

Samhaa.org is the mental health conference I mention at the end, register/volunteer/spread the word now and help make this event the success it needs to be!

I made a new episode of Overshare! Made one before this too that I absolutely couldn’t post, this is a re-shoot of that that I almost didn’t post, but a whole bunch of editing ended up making it totally watchable. So here it is! Enjoy and please share/reblog :)

New Overshare! This one’s called ‘Focus’. You know what would make my day? You watching it.

I’m actually going to try and take my own advice here and make another Overshare in, y’know, less than two months. 

Enjoy and please re-blog!

Video Blog Sixteen: The “Studio”.

I recently had to do a video assignment for my Communications class (CMNS130W, if you need to know), and decided to share the “setup” I had… set up… at home to make me all lit up. Filmed with a lower quality camera this time, but you can still more or less tell what’s going on.

I finish first year University tomorrow, so hopefully that means more video blogs and kaymoney coming up soon!

I reaaaaallly want to say “Huzzah!” right here but that would just be annoying and weird. So I’m definitely NOT saying “Huzzah!”. Right here.

I went to Mannan and Arbab’s house yesterday. Arbab had borrowed a lighting kit from SFU for an assignment, and, since I’ve never had the opportunity to work with lighting for film/video, trying them out was really the only option we had.

We finished the first day of filming Jinx. And it got ‘hectic’.

More from the shooting of our new short.

We couldn’t sing at him, and we couldn’t ignore the ridiculousness. The internet was our only way to call out the grade 11 kid acting *way* too cool.

Started shooting a new short today. Here is some extra footage.

I’ve started a video blog!

What!

Yes, it’s true - I’m finding it hard to really get the time or energy to text-blog a daily journal of my progress re:projects, as well as ideas, insights, and observations. And it would be near-impossible to include my friends in those as well. So I’ve instead decided to keep a video blog as regularly as possible, and, while this first one is a tad long and rough, I swear I’ll get better given a bit of a chance.

For now, enjoy - see y’all tomorrow, most likely. Let me know what you think in the comments either on this post or over on YouTube!
