Doing the Dew, Old School Style
Russ
I wrote about this a while ago but never uploaded the completed videos. We made a couple of videos for our youth group. We used a green screen to film them, and Dan helped us with making a fake lake and beach in Blender. The beach video didn’t turn out too great because of quite a few things, but the one on the lake where Jesus and Peter walk on water turned out alright.

You’ll have to understand that a lot of the editing and keying was done in a time period of 20 hours. I got home from a trip to Dallas and didn’t sleep until I got these finished, 20 hours later. It was an extreme night, and that’s why there are flaws and things missing that we wanted to add in.
What do you think about the video? All the people used in the video were members of the youth group. This is the first green screen thing I had done, and I really wish I had worked on it more than I did.

Here’s a great blog with a ton of concept spaceships and experimental aircraft. I’m loving this site, especially since I’m doing some research for our upcoming movie.

DewKnight.com has a new theme! I felt it was time for change since the old theme had a few weird errors and design flaws in it. This new theme is Illacrimo by Design Disease.
What do you all think about it? Should I keep it? Go back to the old one? Get a completely different theme? Here’s the old design:

Entrecard, the revolutionary blog to blog advertising network has partnered with SezWho to reward users for flooding blogs across the internet with quality, well though comments.
Entrecard has chosen to team up with SezWho to give you credits for your comments. All you have to do is register for SezWho from your dashboard, install SezWho on your blog using the provided Wordpress plugin or paste some code in for Blogger. Next you start commenting, rating comments, and earning credits.
You can earn up to 150 credits per day for quality comments on blogs with Entrecard and Sezwho installed. The credits are on a scale of 10, depending on the quality of your comment (which is determined by other users that rate your comment). This is great for people looking for more credits and more comments. This is absolutely full of awesome for those looking for better quality comments. There is going to be a huge flood of comments all around the internet. There is no incentive to leave comments that suck because you won’t get credit for them.
Partnering with SezWho is a genius move by EntreCard. Getting a network of 14,000 bloggers together commenting on blogs every day is really going to help revive the blogosphere. I can’t wait to see the burst of traffic that thousands of blogs start receiving because of this. This is going to cause the quality of blogs to increase substantially. Graham over at Entrecard has written an amazing post on the Entrecard Blog about this partnership, and how to use it effectively.

A night of DOOM (and of BOOM). And this is only the stuff we’ve managed to record (just from one day). SoBe bombs, flares, fireworks, more fireworks, much fire. Lots of boom. Lots of gasoline. This was done on 4th of July this year. Celebrate your nation’s independence by blowing up a small part of it.
Bonus: Video includes bowling ball cannon and watermelon cannon footage!
