Supporting Some Awesome People

I am posting tonight to just bring some attention to some awesome web sites, youtube pages and just all around awesome people.  These are things that are must see and made by some of the most talented people that I know.  The first thing I want you to check out is:

website: http://willterrell.com/
Twitter: @willterrell
Instagram: willterrell
Will Terrell is a man who I am following on Twitter , Instagram and if he had a YouTube page then I would be subscribed to that as well.  I'm assuming that Will has an actual job some where but for the most part makes these awesome sketches which I'm sure he gets paid for in some way as well.  Ever since viewing this mans art and sketches I have begun to see people in the same way that he sketches them.  Often times thinking to myself, "how would Will Terrell draw that person.".  Followed by the image in my head and then a low chuckle once I finally have the mental image.  I wish that he had a Penny-Arcade type comic that he would put these people in, I'm sure it would do very very well.  Will is a person who has great talent when it comes to his style of art, I can not express to you how much I enjoy viewing what he creates.  It seems now that I am just talking him up to you(the viewer), but please, if you do one thing today that is out of your normal routine.  Make it viewing Will's site.  You wont regret it.

Next up on the old block is a friend of mine's YouTube page.  Here we go.

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/superbadfilm?feature=results_main
I have a friend that I work with named Praseut Yang.  He created a YouTube page called SuperBadFilm which specializes in videos that are primarily in the Hmong language.  A lot of his videos have sub-titles as well, but he does have a few that do not.  Almost all of his videos deal with Hmong culture and the norms set upon them thru family traditions and what not.  His YouTube page is nothing short of amazing.  He has garnered over 4,000 subscribers and over a million views in the short time that Praseut has started his film company.  The editing on these videos is great as well and to be honest, Praseut has given me a ton of pointers when it comes to editing the videos that I make for my YouTube page.  He is a great friend and an equally great film maker.  So go check out his page today, don't forget to subscribe to it and watch some of the vids.  I'm sure that once you watch them you will be giving them "likes" as if they were going out of style^_^


So that's all, I feel really passionate about both of the people who I have mentioned in this blog.  Both are awesome people and have been able to make something that has meaning, value and substance in a world of people doing the same thing over and over again.  These pages deserve your views and you owe it to yourself to check something out that will most likely blow your mind.

Until next time.

How Have you Been?^_^

Well, it's been a while since I have written a blog, so I have decided to change that and finally write one today.  I am feeling the inspiration.

So as of lately I have been focusing more on my youtube page which is youtube.com/theflarida

I recently bought an editing software as well to further my videos along and have been trying to make them better in quality and comedy.  Not to mention I have also been doing vlog's which are fun but to be honest are incredibly boring, I'm not really sure how people make money off of doing vlog's but some how they do.  I have also been doing some Modern Warfare 3 game play and commentary which is fun but sometimes they can just drag on due to the game and map you are playing.  I'm not a big fan of just releasing a video of me talking and eight minutes of game play going.  The thing I am really trying to do is find a way to make all of this stuff work while trying to find my own way and style to make these videos in a way that will make them stand out and garner some sort of attention.  So that's what I have been doing lately.

But most importantly...

How have you been? ^_^

Videos/Moving

I've been trying to make more content for my youtube page(youtube.com/theflarida) latley and it's going a little slower then I expected.  However I have been enjoying the content that I have been putting out, I have also been paying attention to other people's pages as well.  Im kind of trying to get an idea for trends and other things that I think my demographic would enjoy seeing from me.  As of right now I am only putting out vlogs and Modern Warfare 3 gameplay, the hard part is trying to do something witht hose two that have not been done yet.  So many people are doing the same thing that i am doing that sometimes it makes it hard to come up with some fresh ideas.  But, I am still trying and am satisfied with what I am putting out, I just have to find a way to put out content on a more consistent basis.  I know I have touched on this before but I am still working on getting some editing software so that i can eventually make actual videos that have substance, story and some comedy in them.  It's coming, I promise.

Onto other news.

We finally got the keys to our new place in Oakhurst, we went down Friday and payed the first months rent and put some boxes inside the place.  Now to do the big huge move that I am definetly not looking forward to in any way shape or form, trust me, it's going to suck.  I dont mind moving persay, but when it comes to the physical act of "moving", well that's when I start to not like it.  Luckily I have a bunch of friends who can help out with the move so that should make it less of a chore and more of a fun thing to do.  Who knows, maybe we can have a big going away party in the empty house that we are moving from, that would be pretty awesome.

Another thing.

I want to find musicians to play some music with.  That is all.

Good bey

The Most Awesome Thing

So, if you have read my post on the PS3 game Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning then you already know all of the troubles I have been having with it.  Well, I made a youtube video showcasing what has been happening to me and posted it on the Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning facebook page.  Well guess what?  They commented on that post saying they were sorry for the trouble's I was having and also posted a link that I could go to so that I could post the video in their forums in hope's of it getting fixed by the dev's.  Oh my lantis, this issue was pissing me off due to the fact that i actually really like this game a lot, it's fun, plays great and looks amazing.  What they did has totally redeemed 38 Studios in my mind.  Instead of ignoring me they helped me out, submitted my problem and showed me where I could submit my problem.  They were totally kind and understanding of what was going on.  38 Studios has made a lifetime fan out of me, I will always buy there game's because they are fun and now I know how far they are willing to go for their fans and customers.  I just wanted to post an update to the problem I was having, that's really all this post is, it's also a thank you to 38 Studios.

Until next time.

Ideas and The "General"

Hi everyone, its been a bit of time since I wrote int his blog.  I guess I was kind of taking a break from it, I wasn't really feeling any kind of creativity or the need to blog but now I feel rejuvenated and ready to get down to business once again.  I have found some new inspiration, a new outlet and form of "provocativeness" that I feel I am ready to bring to all of you.  After a few supplies are bought I will be ready to go, ready to make something fun and hopefully in my viewers eye's it comes off as awesome.  So, you can expect new videos at my YouTube page which is youtube.com/theflarida

I have figured out something different to do other then my semi regular but far from par vlogs.  I'm hopeing to make it a regular series and to also make it my calling card of sorts, these new videos will be what I think people will think of when they think of my YouTube channel.  And if this does not work then oh well, I will just move on to the next idea.

I have been contemplating buying new video games as of lately, but every time I am about to buy said game I end up seeing the price and am instantly deterred from buying this product.  I have also noticed that I am actively searching steam for games due to the always super low prices of games that are just as good as any console game that I could play.  I blame Cody for this since he gifted me Torchlight which I have barely played due to, um, kids.  But within the five minutes(literally) I have played, I have fallen in love with this game, I have already imagined my future with this game.  We have four kids, an awesome house, the game drives a Prius and I drive a flying Porsche, we have 2.5 animals and regularly vacation to the Caribbean...

It's a nice life.

A Schedule

So i have been thinking of some kind of a schedule for writing my blog posts, like certain days that I write something.  Maybe something like Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.  I don't know, like i said for now it is just an idea in my little head of heads.  I'm also looking to add more pictures to this blog as well, that means that I will have to start writing more of these at home, for the most part I really only write these at work and very rarely at home, yesterday was one of those occasions.  I mean, this site has so much more to offer and by only doing text based blogs with nothing but text(this sentence was redundant) I am only hurting myself.  SO MUCH MORE!!!!!!!!  I could even post some of my youtube videos onto this blog, unfortunately none of the ones I have made yet but once I start making legit videos that have been edited via some sort of editing software then I think we will be in business.

Speaking of videos, I have a ton of ideas video wise that I hope to be making withing the next 6 months so look out for those little bastards for sure.

Also music.  It seems that I will hopefully be getting together with an old friend of mine to write some new tunes and bring back an old band of mine that I was in hella days ago called Forgotten Masterpiece.  Its going to be myself(Anthony) and Tim, you probably have no idea who this band is being as you most likely don't know me so check out purevolume.com/forgottenmasterpiece because that is were the blunt of the music is at.  Now, the music up on that site is not what we are going to sound like, the two of us are going to evolve it into something new and awesome(I love that word).  Its going to be a new take on Forgotten Masterpiece so don't be disappointed when we sound nothing like we used to sound if you used to listen to us back in the day.

Quick question for you guys before I end this.  Do you think I put enough content in these posts or should I be putting more in here?  I'm talking text and picture wise, let me know what you think in the comments below.

Until next time.
