Eli and Jack sing with their choir once again - and Jack reads the story of Jonah!!! Bravo!

Charlie got his own Easter basket which had this squeaky chicken inside. He loves it! Silly puppy! 😂

Rock striking windshield caught by dash cam. See the spark and red glow of rock and glass in slow motion. This will be my second windshield replacement of the year.

Puffy fluff needs to return a gold metal so she try to but she gets lost with a wizard

On Saturday, April 15, 2023 in Kansas City, Missouri I saw this truck tire just rolling down the middle line of I-70 doing about 60mph! I'm not sure how far it went but it seemed like it needed to be somewhere fast and wasn't pulling over for anyone!

This was more a test of my oldest son's new Stikbot stop-motion figures – clearly we didn't light the green screen well at all. A dirty key for a dirty fight!

Have a very Merry DizzE Christmas!

In this episode Jack tries out the Apple Arcade hit game, "Hot Lava". Based on the kids' game The Floor is Lava, the object is to get from point to point without touching the .... hot lava! Jack throws out caution and runs wild. "Booyah!"

Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, and Premiere Pro. This is an exercise in vector graphics, puppet-pin and path animation, particle generation, and 3D compositing.

For this one I followed a tutorial on YouTube for rigging animation using Null objects. I used the instructor's chicken, tweaking it a bit in Photoshop, animated in AfterEffects and finished in Premiere Pro. Here is the link to the tutorial and project files.

This stuffed 'thing' belongs to my youngest, who calls it, "Puffy Fluffs." A little Photoshop, After Effects, and Premiere Pro and we have a show! He loves it. ;)

Eli sings with the Kansas City Homeschool Choir once again as they present songs for All the Holidays. The audio is better on the first couple of songs which were recorded on an iPhone. The audio is much worse for the second half which was recorded on a Samsung Galaxy Android phone. Lesson learned.

In this video I use Photoshop's 'Object Removal Tool' to remove two people from a photograph before adding our own object from another photo to the remaining background. This remove and fill feature is amazing and makes these tasks so much easier!

A composition of backplate image, robot, robot cat, and atmosphere seasoned with lighting effects, dust, and 3D camera. Add sfx and mix to taste. Here kitty, kitty..... BOOM!

A driver hits a pedestrian in Olathe, Kansas but the poor chap picks himself up and waves it off. A person emerges from the vehicle to help but finds it isn't necessary – this is merely a speed bump in the victim's day.

A trucker spreads trash from Kansas City, Missouri to Kansas City, Kansas and beyond. Who knows where this fool finally stopped this litter spree?! And don't think Kansas City will clean this up any time soon – the trashiest city in the Midwest!

Child crayon art turned digital.

Low hanging clouds over I-35 in Kansas. Beautiful.

A fast drive down Ward Parkway in Kansas City. A casual drive would show the stunning mansions that make this the Beverly Hills of Missouri.

Country drive in rural Missouri.

Eli plays with a weather mod and spawns several tornados as well as lightning and hail. And, don't miss, Pocket Sand!

Eli nails the cup from 30 feet! Boom!

I know gas prices are high but this guy has lost his mind. Missouri law enforcement pulls over a man driving a go kart down the shoulder of I-470. The man is seen pleading his case but the officer shuts down his little joy ride and orders a tiny tow-truck to remove this nuisance on the go.
