YouTube - G.I. JOE CLIP ON ET (0:12) →
boringloser:
Yeah yeah, it’s only 12 seconds, but can I just say again how excited I am for the GI Joe Movie. I’ve had many conversations with disbelievers, but I’m pretty sure that was just my first glimpse at LIVE ACTION SNAKE EYES DOING A FLIP. I don’t even need to see the movie now. I’ll send Paramount my 16 dollars based on THAT ALONE. Really. You realize Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow will...

Why is there no Deadliest Catch video game?
I’ve said this before and i’ll keep saying it until it happens.
Isn't it 2009? A new year? Isn't 2008 done with me...
I have been labeled a Control Freak only a couple times in my life, but both times by people I respect. It’s times like these that make me realize why I’m a control freak and why I want to take control of everything; why I feel like I need to be in control, instead of staring at the world go by in front of me. I’m sick of grabbing at whatever I can and feeling desperate and...
What Web 2.0 Really Means
Web 2.0 should refer to the KogiBBQ truck announcing it’s loc. on Twitter, or getting involved in the development and production of an independent film, or connecting with like-minded people all over the country and world.
What Web 2.0 REALLY means is that your moms, dads, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, grandmas, know and follow you on Twitter.
Grading President Obama's First Day →
A delightfully left-leaning grade sheet of Obama’s first day; I’m not that political and this is clearly cheering him on, but it’s a great run-down of what he did and where it stands in regards to the last guy that was in office.
Anyhow, it’s a pretty quick, interesting read.
Without Looking It Up-
No fair looking this one up right away-
How do you play Clue? The board game? I know what the board looks like, with the hallways two or three squares wide; all the rooms, the study, the dining room, the conservatory(?), and so forth. I remember all the little pieces of murder weapons. I know there are secret passageways from each corner room. I remember the characters- Professor Plum, Ms. White,...

Trailer for Stripped: Greg Friedler’s Naked Las... →
My friend Alex Hanawalt is editing this fascinating documentary about photographer Greg Friedler’s “Naked: Las Vegas” book. I saw a rough cut a few months ago and the movie is just so interesting. Watch the trailer! Nudes! NSFW, clearly.

Go to this site and wait a couple seconds before you do anything else.
very fun.
That. Was. Awesome! Best part of my day. (Note to my girlfriend: there are no jump scares if you click that link, only happiness.)
And now: The 2009 Jeff Crocker VFX demo reel. Nice and succinct, it leaves a lot of the best parts from the one before and adds some shiny, new stuff. Ready to rock!

Here is my 2007-2008 demo reel. Much better than the one before it, starting to round out to a nice body of work. Music: “Bees Been Struggling” © The Octopus Project; i love the music but this whole thing is a little too long.
This is the second demo reel I ever built for myself (the first is looooong gone); it’s mostly Ch101 stuff and Robot Bastard. Music © Bablicon.

Things my Mother has told me
My mom has always told me, and I completely agree, that I need to be in a job where I’m constantly dealing with people and talking to people, because I have a knack for that. She’s right- it’s why I’ve always wanted to be a bartender.
The last two and a half years I’ve been working freelance, mostly by myself, in my house, just working working working. It’s a...
