[ Hangout-with-benefits ] : Summer party, yes/yes?

[Maeve]

Nu, my precious rabbit-boy paper toy thing!

*runs after you with scissors and glue*

[Malverne]

-pulls out lighter- take another step and your paper thinger goes up in flames

[Maeve]

*stops running immediately*

NO!!!

[Catghost]

Yay!
And it's not? What's the video about? I thought you were doing a stop motion animation haha...

Mal! This is why we can't have nice things. :c And where did you get the lighter? I thought I got rid of all of them... cause of the /last/ incident.

[Malverne]

Not telling. It's my lighter now. And the "last incident" had nothing to do with a lighter, it was an oven. Besides, I'm only gonna light it up if Maeve comes closer. It is indeed an entertaining toy...I might keep it.

[Catghost]

I should just get rid of all things that produce flames.
But knowing you, you'll figure out a way to make fire from Popsicles... ಠ_ಠ

[Malverne]

The sugar is somewhat flammable, yes. The trick is separating it from the ice.

[Maeve]

*slowly moves away from Mal to see what will happen*

I guess if you boil it for long enough, the water will evaporate and the sugar will be left... or something. o_o

The video is about... well, I dunno, it just says I need to make an "art" video, in stop motion, and it needs to be 30+ seconds long. I'm not really sure what the art part means.
Right now, most of my projects deal with creativity as a way to evade normal life, and the relation to environment (as in, anything that surround people), so the video will most likely be linked to that. But I still need to do a few test to see how I can build it and all.

My cat just opened my wardrobe.
Now she's climbing on stuff, and throwing things on the other cat that's waiting just outside and wondering what's happening.

[Catghost]

Haha yeah, i can imagine Mal getting those popsicles in the plastic and boiling out the water... and then using the plastic as a makeshift magnifying glass to cause it to burn.

Really? When I think of stop motion i think of little clay figures for some reason, haha. What are you going to be using?
Sounds really interesting.. What else have you done project wise?


Aww, smart kitty cat n.n

[Maeve]

Well, technically, stop-motion only means that it's made from still pictures who are put together to create a video. The "clay figurine" type is kinda the most common, but anything made from photos or drawings. So I was mostly thinking of using some drawing(s) and working on it with photoshop or something else to modify it and make something interesting.

Hm, not much recently. Yay for being braindead
I've done some things in photoshop, a few paintings, some sculptures... I really should upload my portfolio some day, it would be easier to explain.


Yes, frightening smart kitty cat <.<

[Malverne]

Les Stroud? Setting fire to things that we didn't know were flammable sounds more like...I dunno, a more comical and less useful figure. Some random pyromaniac or something.

Don't be braindead, Maeve. Right now, that's my job. I hate mornings. I ESPECIALLY hate mornings when people try to get me to talk...why don't my parents get that I don't like talking at length before nine thirty? >.<

Stop motion...I helped in a stop motion a while back. Way too much work...good luck!

[Maeve]

Ugh, talking in the morning... I hate that

Thanks for the luck ^^
And yeah, that's why I'm kinda happy it doesn't have to be too long.

*goes to play with video thingies*

[Malverne]

-plays around with paper thinger-

Talking in the morning just doesn't work. Ever. I sort of mumble. If you think I'm strange and ramble-prone normally, you should see me in the morning. Wooooo

[Maeve]

*looks at paper thinger being played with*

I know. I don't talk much normally, but it's worst in the morning. I think the part of my brain that control speaking always wakes up 1 hours after everything else.

[Sly]

Haha, you guys are weird. I talk all the time...non-stop. Unless, I'm tired...but even then I get to a point where I'm so tired that I ramble on endlessly; it's especially bad in the mornings when I've been up all night. Wee. >_>;

In other news: how is everyone lately? I'm ok...except my arm hurts, because...I got a tattoo yesterday...yes. For no reason at all.
