Awakening Series Nominated for MFF!

My Awakening Series has been nominated for "Best Machinima Series" for the 2005 Machinima Film Festival. Yay! My series, or part of it, will be shown during the festival in the “Best of the Fest” reel. Awards will be given out on November 11th, so wish me luck! Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to attend this year, although I really wish I could. Does anyone live in NY that would like to go on my behalf? ;-)

Here's the full list of nominees: Machinima Festival Nominations

My EA Commercial is live!

As of today, October 25th, I've been told by several people that they've seen my commercial. Since I don't have TV, I'm unable to see it until it's posted on the Sims website, but I thought I'd let everyone know on my blog. So far it's been seen on MTV and on the Gilmore Girls. I'm excited that it's showing, but I feel I should comment here that they chose the movie I liked least of the ones I made. The original idea I had for this particular commercial was basically changed, and now it appears that it's making fun of the President. This isn't AT ALL what I wanted to portray and I feel bad that it may come across that way. I have great respect for anyone who runs the United States, whether he makes mistakes or not. SO, for what it's worth, whoever sees the commercial and reads this blog will at least know how I really feel.

See it here!

Website Down for Oct 19th

Hi All,
For those of you who can get to this site without going through my main site, I wanted to let you know due to domain reg problems, my website will be down for the next 12 hours. My email doesn't work, either, so if you have tried to send me anything on Oct 19th, please resend it on Oct 20th. Sorry for the inconvienence and let anyone else know who is wondering.
Thanks!

20,000 Unique Visitors in SEVEN days!!!

I usually don't share my website statistics with everyone because...well, I don't see why anyone would care. But this month, I logged on to check my bandwidth and much to my shock, BOTH of my websites were at 100% by Oct 6th! Usually I don't reach 100% until the end of the month. I couldn't figure out what was going on until I looked at my reports and found that someone had posted my website on i-am-bored.com as well as flabber.nl (the biggest blog site in the Netherlands). Needless to say, I got 15,000 unique visitors in TWO days, and the number has continued to climb to over 20,000 as of today! I had to buy a third domain and post all my movies there so I my site didn't get shut down, but that's already gone up 10% in one night!

It's pretty exciting to get so many hits, as my usual unique visitor count is in the 5,000-6,000's for the month!

Just thought I would share the crazy news! :-)
