I'm fully expecting a response to this response when he sees it and feels the need to respond and then I will respond to him and we'll keep responding until one of us gets bored.

News and views
I guess it's fair I write a new entry, seeing as it's been a LONG time since I wrote anything. Add this up to a combination of being insanely busy and not really having much of anything to write about and you get the reasons, but after a stern talking too from Aditi, which sounded something like "You don't write anything anymore" I figured now would be a pretty good time to actually sit down and type, seeing as I do have news to talk about. First off, I'm writing this in between helping my brother pack his things and move in with his girlfriend. The weird thing is not having the parents here is actually making the whole thing move a lot faster than normal. Granted, if my mother was here she's be looking at everything we load into the van and saying in a nostalgic voice "Aww, remember this Chris?" and my father would be reminding him of what a big step this is, how he can't come back if it falls through and about how I'm next. You know, really positive things like that. In a strange way though, I'm happy for my brother. He's moving in with a woman he's very happy and settled with and the two of them through combined finances are in a position where they can afford to do it. If there's anything I can be accused of it's just wishing that I was in a situation like that. I'm also in a situation where my girlfriend is half way around the world and I don't know if I'm going to get to see her again, but that's something I don't tend to think about too much, otherwise I may lock myself in my room and become a very miserable person.
In other news, Sad Panda Q&A episode 4 is completed and has been released to fairly positive reviews. I'm happy with it as a whole, though I do think it's a little on the long side so I've suggested a rule that the episodes should run no longer than 10 minutes. I also think there's a little too much of "me" in it which sounds like a contradiction when you read that I edit it, but contrary to popular belief I don't actually like appearing on camera all that much. Still, in a series which one defining goal is to be as over the top and out there as possible I think we've raised the bar pretty high for ourselves. I won't go into to much detail on my thoughts and workings of the episode as I'll be recording a commentary with Panda this week, so a lot of my musings will come out in that talk. I would like to extend a thank you to Aditi at this point for staying with my despite my constant ability to humiliate myself though appearing on camera peeing, in the bathroom, dressed as a killer cricket player with a high squeaky voice and then in bed with someone else while appearing to have a fixation on Anne Hathaway. The silence on the other end of the line after she'd watched the end was too funny to put into words.
After finishing the Panda Q&A I moved onto completing the NEW, yes new, intro for Bad Movie Beatdown. In truth, I was feeling slightly burnt out after completing the Q&A, in doing which I've discovered new found respect for people like Spoony and Doug, but once I started piecing the BMB footage together I was really pleased with how it came together. One thing I'd noticed about the previous track footage is that it was starting to become very grainy, mainly due to the fact that the original render of the piece that I edited together has been the same one I've used since the show started using a title sequence. I still to this day wonder how the title sequence would look if I'd used Mat's original choice. One of the best things about this title sequence is I had all of the anniversary footage available to me, as well as the newer episode of BMB and its allowed me to put together (what I think) is probably the most tightly edited and exciting edition of the opening titles to date. Aside from the titles I've also recorded lines for Smarty and a small cameo for Jon (ChaosD1) which, again, kind of contradicts the whole doesn't like to appear on camera thing.
The UK is also well known for its terrible delay on release dates and this Friday just passed, I finally managed to get my hands on No More Heroes 2. It's a crime that this game didn't sell more than it did, as I adored the first game and love the sequel just as much, being as off the wall and insane as the original. I managed to clock it last night on the mild setting so will have to move up to the higher difficulty when I get a chance to sit down with a few hours to set aside. My brother moving out also means I get his room while mine it gutted which will hopefully mean a better online connection for my X-Box Live. At the moment, for SOME reason, my connection sucks (which makes little sense as I type this though a perfect wifi connection) and my brother who was but a sheet of plastic wall away from me had a stellar connection with no problems. Still, while in his old room, it does mean I'll be able to log into Red Dead for the first time and actually take part in some free roaming matches. Yes, it will mean instant death for me, but anyone who's played me on COD will know I suffer from that quite easily so it'll come as no surprise.
Plans for this week revolve around getting a Cinema Snob video edited together as well as a Spine Breakers Q&A podcast. Coldguy has also invited me on as a guest for the series 1 year anniversary and asked me to take part in a pilot for a new show idea he might be having. Coupled with the eventual editing of Foreign Delicacies episode 4 and the writing and planning for Panda Q&A episode 5 and I've got a busy few weeks ahead of me.

Mega Man in 5 Seconds

Sad Panda Q&A Episode 3
It took longer than expected, mostly because I had to render it in parts and then render THOSE parts as one big episode, but I think it was worth it. It was definitely my favorite episode to work on with some great cameos, gags and performances from all involved. MVP had to go to Jon (Chaos) if only for his ability to hold a manic laugh for longer than is healthy and then to switch straight into quiet calm.

Starting with a joke...
So usually its best to open these things with a joke. I won't be doing that. Mainly because I'm really not that funny and secondly, I'm kind of writing this for me (and for my gf as she says I don't write enough) and I usually make her laugh by insulting her country (love you really hunny) there's no one left to really make laugh. So, I guess I'm doing this as an outlet to get a lot of plans and ideas off of my chest as opposed to keeping them in my head. At the moment, work on the Channel Awesome YouTube page has stalled because of other commitments. Between my current job, my own life and work for various members of TGWTG, its very VERY hard to find time to create trailers for the videos. I do intend to go back to making them, thought they'll probably be weekly announced trailers, which will hopefully start after the anniversary vids are all released. In the past week I've managed to edit Spine Breakers 9 http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/podcasts/sb/20912-we-love-libraries , pen some of Sad Panda's Q&A episode 4, complete 2 title sequences for some cross overs that are coming up.
I'm also in possession of a brand new handy cam. Up until now, any appearance I've made in videos has been filmed on a digital camera. It gets the job done, but the quality has always been pretty shoddy and I've always wanted to branch out and do some other things now I feel a little more confident appearing on camera and using a digital camera with a 10 minute limit really wasn't going to help me with that. Ideas I've had buzzing around in my head for a while fall into a Doctor Who recap, looking at the most recent series for starters and another would be a look back at the weeks videos and comments from TGWTG, treating it with a slight satirical edge. It's something I'd really like to do but at the moment, it's finding the time to film that's causing the most problems. I'm set to record some of Q&A 3 tonight and film the rest tomorrow so hopefully it will be edited and posted tomorrow evening and then I can move on to the Cinema Snob video I've been trying to find time to do. Towards the end of May I've a 2 week holiday. It's just a shame I couldn't have that holiday now. It would really help me save some time. Especially as I usually work to my best in the night.
So, that's plans, signs and ideas. I'm fresh out now, in between installing new software and chatting to my best friend (*waves* Hi Jen) I think I've covered everything I can right now.
Over and out.
