10 Second Stories

Who says a web site can’t be launched in 2 hours? OK nobody has, but that’s what I did last Sunday. Presenting my new project… 10 Second Stories…

The site is focused on the art and craft of making 10 second movies. It is designed for both novices and seasoned professionals. I will eventually have video galleries and “Film Festivals.” Stay tuned.

Wear Spanish

This project was inspired by a t-shirt that I saw last year that had nine objects with Japanese words for those objects printed below each image. I thought it this was a great way to learn a new language, but didn’t quite help with sentence structure, so I decided to take it to the next level.

Now, one of the funny things about me is that I grew up in a household where Spanish was the second language but I never actually learned to speak it fluently. The weird thing is that I understand it if I hear it or read it. The human brain can be funny that way.

Anyway, I decided to do a tongue-in-cheek-web-t-shirt-mash-up to teach some Spanish fundamentals. The result is Wear Spanish, a site that includes animated tutorials on how to use a t-shirt printed with a dozen objects and spanish words.

These t-shirts are available through Printfection. Try one, buy one, learn Spanish!
