You Silly Goose!
You're never going to get political commentary from me - being that I get my news solely from The Daily Show and Conan O'Brien - but this Bush In 30 Seconds contest appealed to me. MoveOn.org asked filmmakers to make anti-Bush ads, with the grand prize of TV airtime during this week - the week of Bush's State of the Union address. Celebrities picked the winning entry: the judges ranged from Jack Black and Moby to Al Franken and Michael Moore. One of my PC instructors entered the contest, and although he didn't make it to the end, his falling cowboy hat ad had a solid concept behind it. MoveOn.org has also raised over $8.5 million to play the "Child's Pay" ad during the Superbowl, but CBS is refusing to allow it. Oh Snap, CBS! Burn!
I got to do some freelance work last week through a friend at school. The old Second Nature snowmen characters were brought back to design a tee-shirt for a local Presbyterian Church Ski Trip. It was a lot of fun; maybe I'll look into pursuing more cartooning opportunities down the road. Back To Blues should be up by Monday, and a new Shoot will probably round out our January issue. I'm rocking my Dad's old 1980 Canon AE-1 for photography class now, defying all things digital. Sunny 16 and Hazy 11 Rules forever!
