A video about BRICS and Brazil

A video with a few thoughts about the recent election in Brazil (2014) and the long term prospects for the BRICS...

And for us...



Another video, this one a triffle sad

As it says, another video I did for Belfort & Bastion, also promoting Prometheans. A little different in that it is more meditative and, indeed, a bit sad...

the video from the Breaking Bad dam

Here's one little video I did to promote  Anastasia Leach's short story collection, Prometheans. (Link to the book is below the video on Youtube.

The one interesting thing about this is that I shot it (on my phone, obviously) at the John B. Robert Dam, in ABQ, NM. It has the distinction of being a major fixture in the Breaking Bad TV program.

I'm experimenting with videos

I'm experimenting a bit more with videos at the moment. I'm not quite sure why. I'd never intended this to be a "Vlog." And, certainly, I'm nobody's idea of a photogenic superstar.

Still...it's interesting to play with cameras and special effects, no matter how crude they may be. And, besides, I've not been posting here much. Just haven't had the time mostly, but also the motivation's been a bit lacking. Maybe this refocus me. Re-establish my interest in this, my most personal form of personal expression.

What got me into Vlogging (this time, I've done it before) was doing some mildly promotional videos for Belfort & Bastion, my micro-publishing company. In the the next entries, I'll put links to the places where you can see some of the more interesting of those videos.

Anyway, that's what I'm up to.
