Doomz’s posterous

Doomz tackles a major challenge. A year at a time with daily updates!
 

The 2010 20K: Day 25 - Direct Advertising, Day 1

(download)

Oh man, big things poppin' today! So for one, no more of this http://doomz.posterous.com/tag/201020k beeswax. Oh no. Due to my friend Michal's genius thinking, I have now purchased http://www.201020k.com and THAT'S where you'll now find the blog! Tell your friends, your enemies, your lovers! IT'S ON LIKE DONKEY KONG!

Secondly, it's going to be a fiendish week, balancing the day job and arting it up like a madman, but if anyone can pull it off, you're LOOKING at him. Well, looking at what he's writing, but really, is there a difference?

Also, I've mentioned a few of the things I can do for anyone looking to hire my services outside of work, but I thought it might be better if I did a bit of illustrative work - today's video is the first 2010 20K Ad! Today's service: High-quality sound recording with the Shure SM58 and the Shure X2U XLR to USB convertor!!!

Check out the video and let me know what you think!

Man, I'm so PUMPED. Writing out http://doomz.posterous.com/tag/201020k on the back of my business cards was giving me hand cramps, anyway...

The Math:

  • The 2010 20K Running Total = $63.04
  • The Google Adsense Running Total = $91.01 (I'm totally serious about how much I appreciate this! I'm not just spewing out empty words here! Until posterous lets me post ads directly on the blog, please keep clicking ads at http://doomsdayblaze.livejournal.com! It's thoroughly appreciated!! SERIOUSLY!!!)
  • Comments, as well, are also very much appreciated ;)
Keep on visiting, keep on viewing!

Peace out home fries,

The 2010 20K: Day 18 - We Be Vloggin'!

(download)

YAY FOR FIRST 2010 20K VLOG!!!

I'm gonna need some time after work today to just get some things done. One of the things that really wears me out sometimes is just carrying so much STUFF. I have a bag on my back right now with my laptop and several art supplies in it; looking down at my feet, there's one bag weighed down by several books, and a duffle bag with a bunch of other stuff. I've gotta somehow consolidate it all before I go home - maybe leave some stuff at the office and grab it tomorrow? Hm...

On that note, one of the things in the bag is business cards. I probably have 300-350 cards that I printed via moo.com with my face on them - what I'm thinking is that I could paste the url for this blog on the back and start handing them out around the city. A step in the right direction while I figure out what I'm doing?

Other suggestions that have been brought to my attention:

  • Becoming a Scrabble tutor
  • Attending Scrabble tournaments
  • Babysitting
  • Singing at weddings
There's gotta be better ways to make money every day than picking change up from the streets every day, right?

Anyway, check the video, and I'm signing off for the night. Sketches to draw, stories to write, sleep to be had!

The Numbers:

  • The 2010 20K Running Total = $62.20 (no thanks to YOU, Super Bingo!!!)
  • The Google Adsense Running Total = $39.25 (thanks so much! please keep clicking ads at http://doomsdayblaze.livejournal.com! It's thoroughly appreciated! I'm also noticing that this amount tends to fluctuate - I need to figure out how to optimize it!)
  • There's also the option of donating to PayPal by clicking on the button on the right side of my blog!
  • Comments, as well, are also very much appreciated ;)
One love, much respect and see you tomorrow!

Rochester aka Juice - A New Day

via revver.com

My jam of the moment: Rochester - "A New Day". I only heard this song for the first time at a party last night, and I knew I needed to find out more about it.

Reppin' Toronto's Islington/Finch intersection, Rochester's had a bit of acclaim in our community, and with this, I can see why. This song's just damn addictive. Was hard for me to believe at first that it came from the T-Dot, but you can hear the influences subtly in the undertones of the rhythm.

Listen, support and give props. I'm probably going to hunt this record down this week.

[HD]自主制作アニメーション『the TV show』

via youtube.com

Videos like this can make you wish you weren't living in North America.

You can basically look at it like the same sequence of videos done four times over, but it's after the first time where the madness starts to begin!

Round one is the premise;

Round two brings you to reality to show you how it all fits in;

Round three shows what happens when we merge that crazy TV land with reality;

Round four shows the consequences.

What do we get? 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = EPIC WIN.

--case p.

P.S. On second look, there could be more like 7 rounds... and you've gotta watch out for all the subtle changes - for there are MANY!

The Calamities: Now With Video!!!

via flickr.com

Hey all,

I got around to posting some video on top of the photos that have been popping up on my Flickr and Facebook. Here's an example above, and I think there's another five for you to check out in the 2009 OPS Battle of the Bands gallery on my Flickr here:

The videos so far include interviews, intros and other such humorous filler - the songs will come later into the week, along with my blog post.

Hope you're looking forward to it!
