Command & Conquer, yes...but a looong time ago. These days I only really play Empire Earth and the Orange Box games (yea, I'm having to play catch up with the latest games, hah)

To be quite honest, lately I've been into almost any app produced by ngmoco too. They're so time consuming and never really have the pleasure of "beating the game" and yet I waste so many hours on it. And now I've gotten into a few Facebook games by Playfish. It's terrible!

Not a whole lot, really. Waiting for the husband to get back from a business trip so that we can go to Yellowstone (yes!). Currently, I'm trying to put together some locations and props for a local rap artist that I'll be doing some promo work with. Aside from that, beh. My life right now pretty much revolves around the hubby and photography (which isn't a bad thing at all).
How about you? I see that you also do some photography

oh nice Yellowstone is bad ass for pics and just general camping and sightseeing. nice promo work, is that generally hard or have u got it down now.
haha def not a bad thing just having photos and a husband to concentrate on! lucky u haha im still trying to find a girl haha got the photos so i got something at least haha
just relaxing on my day off, took some self pics yesterday but they sucked haha yea im trying to do photography getting better n better so im def in love with that

Promo work is...different. I've only done it for one other musician and wow, that was a pain. What made it difficult was that his manager was constantly talking to him and trying to tell us both what to do. I've gotten more assertive over the past couple months though, so it'll be easier to say "hush up". All in all, it just really depends on the personality of the artist.

Are you in school or anything?

I love doing self-portraits, but I never get the chance! My studio is in my mom's garage (better than nothing) and I can't make it to her house a lot. What's your main camera?

airguy1603 In reply to Visual-Catalyst [2010-06-30 01:51:52 +0000 UTC]

yea wow i bet, gotta keep the managers and publicist under control and all lol gotta be assertive
i graduated from school already with a double BA.. still tyring to figure out what imma do but odds r ill go back for my masters. and u/ any school?
yea i take alot of self portraits just cause i usualy dont have models to take pics of byt lately my friends from work have wanted pics and thats why i have actual ppl now haha
i use an olympus e-500 dslr,i love it to bits, but i want more lenses! haha always need more, what camera do u use?

Visual-Catalyst In reply to airguy1603 [2010-06-30 03:45:10 +0000 UTC]

What do you have your BA in? I'm in school still, bleh. I've changed my major A LOT in the past few years (human resources management, criminal justice, web development, video game development, and now I'm just starting photography courses).

Yea, I used to take a lot of self-ports for the same reason. I also just finally got some models to work with, which is sooo nice.

Lenses are definitely nice to have, but so pricey! I use a Canon Rebel XS, hoping to upgrade by the end of the year. I have three lenses currently. I just bought a lens, Canon film camera, some film, and a case for $10 at a garage sale the other day. Turned out that the lens alone was $100. I was sooo stoked!

i have my BA in History and Political Science but imma end up going for my masters it hink haha one day soon lol hopefully soon
yea def i need to take mor epics though get into it again i been lagging
i know soo expensive, i want two for sure, a longer zoom lense and a prime lense, they go for like 300 and 500 a piece.. crazyness! ahh lol

Visual-Catalyst In reply to airguy1603 [2010-06-30 05:08:08 +0000 UTC]

Very nice! My husband is going for his second master's right now. I do not envy him at all, haha. It's amazing the kind of assignments he gets @_@

I'm looking to get a telephoto lens and then a lens with a really shallow depth of field (for portraits)...we'll see how that goes. I get a lame discount on B&H photo because I'm in school for photography, so yay me? Think $25 off of $3000 items.

airguy1603 In reply to Visual-Catalyst [2010-06-30 05:10:56 +0000 UTC]

damn lol almost not a discount lol yea if u want nice DoF get a lense with a low F stop. anything like F1.4, 1.8, 2.0, 2.8 will give u good to decent in ranging blurs and out of focus. u always wanna get the lower number, usualy prime lenses will give u the best f stop and great quality..but will cost money haha
first time ive heard a girl ever say b and h photo! haha ur awesome !

Visual-Catalyst In reply to airguy1603 [2010-06-30 18:29:34 +0000 UTC]

Yea, I have a lens in mind (goes to f/1.4, I believe), but it's a few hundred dollars Lamesauce.
