Ford Model T Centennial
Looks like I’m using the Labor Day weekend to finally complete long unfinished video projects. Here’s footage I shot Friday, September 5 2008, of the Model T Centennial, at Ford’s World Headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan.

Mackinac Island Wedding
It only took eleven months to put this little video together. Maybe I was afraid to confess one big reason I attended Brian and Lindsey’s wedding, as you’ll plainly see, was just to get back to Mackinac Island.

He is also survived by siblings Gary, Cheryl (Carlton Engstrom), Cynthia (Stefan Majlinger), Caroline (Chris Theodorovich) and Catherine (Chris Melody).

Jake the Web Slayer
My nephew Jake was given one job: clear the webs off the deck. Ever vigilant, always armed, he becomes Jake the Web Slayer. (Recorded way back in 1998, on Easter, April 11.)

Incontrovertible evidence of something I’m not supposed to do; but what the heck. let me show you around the secret facility that is my workplace. Besides, I wanted to play with Photo Booth.

Happy Birthday to Me!
It doesn’t seem that long ago I wrote my last birthday entry. This means the years are going by faster or I’m not writing enough. I suspect the latter. Therefore I’ll keep the list short this year.
Here’s what the Detroit Free Press horoscope, written by Holiday Mathis, has to say about my upcoming year:
You really walk your talk this year and make remarkable progress to long held goals. A strong supporter helps you maintain your motivation. You’re thinking globally and acting locally through December as you make choices to benefit the planet. A loved one makes a big affectionate gesture in July.

Nick & Heather’s Wedding (Highlights)
The wedding was last year, and I’m too late for their anniversary, but for some reason I felt compelled this weekend to take my old HD footage and make a mini-movie.

It took me two days before I got a decent export out of FCP, and the video still doesn’t play too well for me through Vimeo. Is it playing okay for you?
