The UsCast 001 - A Sick Start
(Lee & Charity’s New Podcast)
Charity and I have been wanting to just record our random conversations about various topics and put them online for a while. Now I guess is a decent time to start doing so, and matter of fact, we dont care how much they suck because we will just keep on doing it to archive the crazy thoughts going through our heads. For a great example, we decided to start the first one while we both sound horrible and sick from either head or sinus colds so enjoy it and please tell us what you think. We will be adding a website and twitter and area for it to be very easy to send in your input and even ask us questions. We promise we will make it easy to understand why we are doing this and why you are going to want to listen. Right now, just let us iron it out. We are in beta ok? Thanks for listening beta testers!

This is a motion graphic I created with a few pictures of my girl friend and I and some Particular in After Effects. Great time and used some audio from a previous tutorial. This was fun and great training. Its always good to make something for your girl while your practicing motion graphic design at the same time right? Well its just some more work that I did, not like I dont post enough stuff up here already. I promise one day I will reorganize my portfolio and create a brand new demo reel for 2010. But until then, enjoy the short posts of small clips I have been making lately. Please rate and leave comments, thanks!
Mario Marathon for Charity
Jul 11th
Last year, a group of Super Mario Brother’s fanatics got together and played variations of the video game 55 hours straight for charity, raising better than $11,000 in total. This year,Mario Marathon is back, and once again the gamers are broadcasting live on Ustream, intent to complete all of the games by the end of the weekend (or however long it takes).
The event seems to be off to a good start. There are currently almost 1,000 people watching the group sit on a couch and play their way through the games, while Ustream’s integration with Twitter has lots of users chatting and using the hashtag #mariomarathon. And so far, more than $4,000 has been raised for Child’s Play, a charity that gives games, toys, and books to sick children.
Mario Marathon has some other cool tie-ins to keep followers interested. Fans can submit artwork for inclusion on their site, and both donors and those using the #mariomarathon hashtag will be eligible for prizes that will be held throughout the marathon. You can also keep up with the gamer’s progress in completing the challenge on their homepage.
