This thing on? Hello?

With the New Orleans victory over the Colts we find ourselves in a pickle. No sports to watch, got a full month until Spring Training starts (Braves fans keep an eye on Jason Heyward). Doubt I will watch the Winter Olympics. Guess I will have to focus and keep writing instead of being distracted.

So whats the action here at KREJ HQ?

Not to much, tonight me and lil' Stevie T (who has yet to post here, despite signing up for it) did a touch up on the new "Hero Sandwich" short. Which we will be recording the audio for it tomorrow night. I am really excited about doing an animated piece, should be interesting to see the process happening. Hannah should be starting to crank out some concept art for it soon. Maybe she can post something about what styles she is looking into doing (wink wink).

Been having fun with my script writing software, it has this great function where it will reread the script with various computer voices. Aside from sounding really funny, it is a very useful tool for catching little things you might breeze (or bleeze as the Grub would put it) over when reading.

For anyone looking to get into writing I would highly recommend "Movie Magic Screenwriter". Might be a bit pricey, but totally worth it.

Despite habitual threats none of the other KREJ guys seem to have anything to post about. I will have to double my efforts to get them to speak up.

I feel I am starting to ramble , and Lewis Black just popped on Comedy Central. So I am finding myself fully distracted again, peace!

Your Hero,
Jeff K

Happy Super Sunday!!!

It's that time of year again, Super Bowl 44!! Time for an hour of football and 5 hours of commercials!!
For the record: GO SAINTS!!


But in other news, it looks like Tuesday we will be recording audio for Hero Sandwich. So YAY!! Had a great weekend so far, got to talk to a certain person about bringing them in on some KREJ projects in the future, and talked some more about the future of KREJ (both near and distant futures). Been brainstorming more for ideas for the Weekly Scuttlebutt video blogs we will be producing in the coming weeks, really hope everyone enjoys them! We're bringing back a format we abandoned about two years ago at the fall of our last studio venture(read:disaster). Should have a title sequence for TWS (The Weekly Scuttlebutt) done some time soon as well. It's gonna be too legit to quit.

Scanned in all the Hero Sandwich art and will be getting that in Hannah's hands sometime this week, and then will be working on backgrounds and maybe a quick title sequence for it too.

In unrelated news, I picked up Bioware's newest offering, Mass Effect 2 on Friday: it is freakin' AWESOME!! Even though Grub informs me I have a long ways to go, I've played a couple hours already and have really enjoyed this game. The voice cast alone is impressive: Martin Sheen, Carrie-Ann Moss, Tricia Helfer(Six from the newer BSG!!), Michael Dorn, Adam Baldwin & Yvonne Strahovski from NBC's Chuck, Keith David, Michael Hogan (Colonel Saul Tigh from the newer BSG!!) and even Seth Green. The play style is pretty dope too, its the normal squad setup in Bioware games but it also works as a FPS, which I really dig, cause I have been in dire need of a new FPS to play.

I think I might be getting sick again. Bleh. If my favorite beer is Blue Moon's Spring Seasonal, and it's already out and in the fridge now, doesn't that mean all of this cold weather should eff right off and spring should be upon us? Right, I thought so too. I'm sick of the cold weather. Literally. And I still need to catch up on my most recent of guilty pleasures; USA's White Collar. Don't judge me.

Till next time,
