Frozen Synapse

Frozen Synapse is an amazing indie game on sale on steam, and I highly recommend it. I'll be making a video review for it shortly, but this is a shout out to get it now while you still get a 2 for 1 deal!

New Channel, New Stuff

Hey, I've created a second channel that's shared between my friend and I for uploading cool stuff we work on together. Currently, we're making and adding new songs each each, and here's our first:






If you liked it, and just knowing that there will be other content as well, subscribe!

I'll still be uploading stuff to 2shotproductions, as that's my personal thing, but a lot of work will be on this new channel, http://www.youtube.com/user/jcsfproductions

Summer Plans/Life Plans

Now that I've graduated High School...
Okay, I'm not sure what direction this blog is going to take off in, but I'm going to be doing something in the direction of being productive.


So within these first 5 days of being done with school I've actually done a lot that I didn't realize I was missing out on. It feels strange being done with the stress of school work, but it also feels odd knowing that I'm never going back to High School again; some mixture of relief and disappointment.

One thing that got brought up today was when I was seeing an old friend I hadn't talked to in half a year was the direction of being an entrepreneur. He graduated High School and started up a jewelry making business with his friend and is making iPhone/iTouch apps in his house for money.

Although I don't know how successful that may be, it's definitely something I find worth analyzing and possibly incorporating into my life. Maybe I need to find a direction like that, I have lots of ideas and lots of inspiration (with a lack of motivation) to do something like that, but somehow I feel afraid to take the leap of faith and chance my fate if I spent time pursuing my own business.


There's my little rant. I'll be posting more soon as new ideas and things come up, and perhaps at that I'll actually get people reading my blog on at least a semi-consistent basis.

The Final Stretch

The final week for Seniors ('11!) has come, as we all begin to celebrate being out of school and putting off those projects we're given at the end of the year as busy work, and avoiding being suspended for the senior scavenger hunt, we look back and.... Well, more look forward and ignore the past, expecting college to somehow take us somewhere useful. Of course, most of us will end up hating what we do for a living, bored out of our minds and wondering where it all went wrong and realizing that we just grew up.

Aside from all that, Summer means (potential) productivity. Like, making films or something. I need a summer project. Maybe I'll join the rest of the sad congregation of adults that say "I'm working on a novel." If I'm lucky, I won't. Hopefully I'll be the minority and be part of the sad congregation of "I'm working on a film."

Until next time..

P.S. I just bought Pokemon White on Monday and I'll be playing that until the end of the school year.
