This last one is a video I put together just for fun. I used the 60 fps function on the Canon Rebel T2I to capture a bunch of moments at the Puyallup Fair... IN SLOW MOTION.<br />

Even had a simple website thrown together in order to present it!<br />
<br />
The story is based on an idea by my friend, Patrick Ripoll, who was of great help to me in getting to know the Team Fortress property. But I also wouldn't have been able to do any of this without the help of my brother and many other friends who offered helpful suggestions to make the work better.<br />
<br />
Take a look!<br />

His girlfriend wanted to surprise him by turning their apartment into the Ice Planet Hoth. She requested a representation of a taun taun, a wampa, and Luke hanging upside-down to reproduce larger so that she could hang them on the ceilings.

He wanted the next tattoo he got to be of his son and daughter going around his left forearm. His son, a Halo fan, was to be in a mech battle suit. His daughter took martial arts and calisthenics. I took on the job as a request and declined any sort of pay.<div><br /></div><div>And here I am, over a year later, finally having done something that didn't take me all that long to do. It was a combination of "writer's block" and laziness. "Life got in the way." But not really. You might wonder if accepting compensation would've made me more likely to finish it up sooner. I honestly don't think so.</div><div><br /></div><div>So, here it is. Work done over the course of 2 days (backed up by the foundation of a year of starts and stops and mulling over it in self-loathing guilt), as I batted ideas back and forth constantly with the client.</div></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jCFBVFByPNY/TOAqpB-QJ2I/AAAAAAAAApc/l8H_izwJDDw/s1600/Tattoo.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 246px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jCFBVFByPNY/TOAqpB-QJ2I/AAAAAAAAApc/l8H_izwJDDw/s320/Tattoo.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539474426058254178" /></a><br /><div><br /></div>Joon Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17333531860165969857noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691571555076041149.post-17841301811392331342009-10-19T16:13:00.000-07:002009-10-19T16:17:11.074-07:00Her Royal Duchess<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs235.snc1/8228_818310092958_10712586_46368885_1988771_n.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 396px; height: 603px;" src="http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs235.snc1/8228_818310092958_10712586_46368885_1988771_n.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />A picture I did for a good friend's birthday.

Though I'd like to say that we were mature enough to realize that the bloody ending was pure indulgence in the end, it really came down to the fact that the deadline for the CGSociety Challenge loomed a little too close for comfort. In terms of making creative decisions, I admit it felt like a compromise of our 'VISIONARY GENIUS!' We actually told ourselves that we would go back and make our lofty 'uncompromised' version.<br /><br />We finished our contest entry in time. And perhaps it was due to fatigue or plain laziness, but we no longer felt any need to go back and pull a 'special edition.' The four of us were all very content with what we'd done.<br /><br />So, no blood.<br /><br />Probably...Joon Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17333531860165969857noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691571555076041149.post-11096494794781576782009-10-06T10:33:00.001-07:002009-10-06T10:44:20.533-07:00Maximum Grace<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_jCFBVFByPNY/Sst_x_3P4TI/AAAAAAAAAgo/cZfRLaoyNIk/s1600/Maximum2BGrace.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 416px; height: 232px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_jCFBVFByPNY/Sst_x_3P4TI/AAAAAAAAAgo/cZfRLaoyNIk/s1600/Maximum2BGrace.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />A piece I did in Photoshop for a friend who loves her kitty-cat oh-so much.

My Gmail and CHUD.com. CHUD (Cinematic Happenings Under Development) is my favorite movie news site. It's not really for the news because that stuff is everywhere. It's the writers and their commentary for each bit of news that keep me coming back there.<br /><br />Over a year ago, I finally started posting regularly on their message boards. Since it's a movie news site, you'd think that people would mostly discuss... movies? This isn't actually the case. Its membership loves to talk about lots and lots of whatever. The community is also close-knit enough that they have lots of inside jokes and also post images of themselves in a thread called Chewervision 2D.<br /><br />It's from this thread, I started doing caricatures of several members. I did them to pass the time for fun and posted them in the thread. Unexpectedly, it took off. People really liked seeing themselves represented by my doodles. So I also began taking requests. They are of varying quality. But I'd like to think that I've improved steadily by just drawing constantly. This is the most recent one I posted.<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/979/philthunder.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 317px; height: 348px;" src="http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/979/philthunder.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div>I can't say that I have a definitive style. Sometimes, I do a fairly realistic rendering of a person. And then I'll do a much more cartoony version on a whim. I don't think I've found the ideal balance yet, but it's been fun trying to look for it.Joon Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17333531860165969857noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691571555076041149.post-21167829581936299322009-04-26T12:17:00.000-07:002009-04-26T13:23:11.805-07:00The Beginning is the End is the Beginning<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/1782/sketches5.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 220px; height: 279px;" src="http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/1782/sketches5.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>I swore years ago that I'd never be one of those silly people who start blogging. I was also someone who despised cell phones and never thought I'd use something like Facebook or Twitter. I make use of all of those things now. I'd like to think that I'm using them in a very limited to moderate capacity, but I can't deny that I'm no different from anyone else.<br /><br />As you can plainly see, my so-called ideals and convictions are fluid (read: weak). Nevertheless, I still have to try to put up a front of a guy who thinks he's above it all. That's why I'm not going to use this blog to write about random things. I'm going to use it as a place to compile the rough sketching I've been doing on cigarette carton cardboard along with the short video projects I do with my friends once in a while.<br /><br /><object width="400" height="238"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/k1E07fEWdpU&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x2b405b&color2=0x6b8ab6"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/k1E07fEWdpU&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x2b405b&color2=0x6b8ab6" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="238"></embed></object><br /><br />Basically, a portfolio website!
