Spent some time with my dad and brother in the Glacier Lakes Region of South Dakota this past weekend. It’s a great place to explore and fish. 2009-07-01T18:49:07+00:00 http://www.hatchbox.com/hatchbox/creative/happenings/ice_fishing_in_fremont/ http://www.hatchbox.com/hatchbox/creative/happenings/ice_fishing_in_fremont/#When:02:36:15Z Working with Final Cut Pro and Vimeo to embed some HD clips. I decided to start learning how to use Final Cut Pro. Seems like online video is becoming the thing these days and it’s probably smart to understand how it works as it might be useful for some of our clients. Getting quality footage is always a challenge but understanding how to compress these videos to run smooth on the web seems to be the most challenging part. This is some video I shot while ice fishing and embedded with Vimeo.     2009-02-17T02:36:15+00:00 http://www.hatchbox.com/hatchbox/creative/happenings/judge_jury_and_executioner/ http://www.hatchbox.com/hatchbox/creative/happenings/judge_jury_and_executioner/#When:23:35:20Z I had the opportunity to judge the student art exhibition this past weekend at UNK. Every year at the University of Nebraska at Kearney, students enter artwork into the UNK Art Society’s Annual Undergraduate Student Art Exhibition. I remember entering a couple of pieces when I attended. I may have even picked up an Honorable Mention at some point. This year, however, the tables were turned and I was the one doing the judging. I have a couple of friends who now teach there and they were kind enough to think I was somehow qualified. What can I say? The experience was grand and I enjoyed it immensely. If I recall correctly, there were around 155 pieces submitted and 37 of them made the show. There was a lot of interesting work and I believe the final selections look really good. John Fronczak, an artist himself as well as the gallery’s director, did a great job of helping the students get the show hung and lit correctly. I’ll provide a link to the show as soon as one is available. Until then, you can take a look at some snapshots I took with my phone. 2009-02-16T23:35:20+00:00
