I’m Still Seeing Breen

For this week’s Weekly Tube I’ve chosen a machinima which is, purely coincidental, also based on Half Life 2. It’s a music video using the song So Cold by Breaking Benjamin and was recorded completely inside the game engine.

This video stands out to me because of the singing done by one of the game characters. The creator of this video used a program that came with the Source Development Kit to make the character lip sync to the song, which makes this video more special then any other music video based on a game. And there are plenty out there, some more horrific than others.

More details about I’m Still Seeing Breen can be found on the official Machinima.com page.

Not much to report right now, but I do want to share this video. It’s fun and completely random.

Enjoy!

Noise!

Today was my first audio class, taught by the same wonderful and fun teachers who did our AV class two periods ago. I didn’t really know what to expect with audio class, but I soon discovered I’m going to enjoy this as much as any of the other AV classes we’ve had so far.

After a little speech, detailing how they got their hands on some of the latest equipment for the school (ten audio mixers and twenty eight speakers), it was time for some hands on experience with mixers and speakers. Our objective: Set up two speakers and a mixer.

In groups of two we got to work and in a few minutes time we had an entire row of speakers and mixers with a whole lot of cables dangling between them. One little tip when you’re setting up professional equipment; tape off any dangling cable. Obviously our teacher gave us an ear full for just leaving the cables like that where anyone could trip over them and take down some pretty expensive equipment along with it. But since this was just a quick test it wasn’t that much of a problem.

Some other teachers came to watch and we got a few group photo’s. If I manage to get my hands on to them (which shouldn’t be too hard) I’ll make sure to post them up here.

Sold!

Remember that I moved house a while back? Well tomorrow is the final wrap up concerning the old house. Signatures will be put on paper and I will finally receive the money for my old house so everything can get back to normal. Happy days!

Well, pretty random entry for today but don’t have much more to share right now.
