So in the last month, I have been able to take part and help grow a business. I have now officially become the video editor of NewinOklahoma.com. The website and initiative for the local Oklahoma City area is a wonderful cause and experience. The idea is to get the new people or really anyone in the OKC area, to be involved in the community by visiting local business with the incentive of getting to know the business and it’s owners. In exchange for your time of coming to visit, each business has a gift they would like to personally give you; whether it is a free entry or appetizer at a local restaurant or a mini car detail at a local dealership – there are literally $100′s of dollars worth of incentives! Take a look at their intro video and then sign up at the website to start receiving your gifts!
the background and wanted me to do some 3D text incorporated with the background. After a little bit of thinking, I came up with the idea to have paint dripping on the text; but I faced a problem, I didn’t know how to do that. I thought I could do it in just Cinema 4D, but
turns out you can’t. I then realized I needed RealFlow from NextLimit. I downloaded a demo and started working on it. I had no idea where to start but started searching for tutorials online on how to make paint/liquid/mesh in RealFlow. I finally found two that I used and combined together and got me where I kinda wanted it to be. 
I wanted the paint to be thinner than my final piece, but this will work for what it is. Anyway, I then made the graphic in Cinema and textured, lit, rendered, and exported. I then took it into Photoshop and started playing with colors and the “depth of field”.
and eating dinner at one of our favorite restaurants – Raising Cains. The next day we both took off from work and slept in; Sarrah cooked me breakfast and we then got ready to go out. We went and bought a pumpkin 
and carving tools and then went to get Frostys and french fries from Wendy’s (we had that on our first date). We then went and got a movie from RedBox and watched the movie while we carved the pumpkin. We later ordered Chili’s and picked up and ate it while watching 007 Casino Royal at home. Great anniversary overall!
marry me. I was so scared and so unsure of what she would say (I had a history of getting scared and breaking up with her), but through only what I can call God’s guidance and love for a broken, confused, and scared man she emphatically said yes – 5 months later we got married and I haven’t looked back since!
the limit of striper per person is 10 so that was our goal. Chris knew exactly where to take us and within the first 5 minutes we had 10 striper in the boat. I personally caught one within in 10 seconds of dropping my line in the water. We continued like this for a little bit with Chris taking us to different locations on the lake when the fish got sparse. About 11:30am we finally had caught our last fish we could legally keep [60 total] and headed back to the marina. When we got back, we took all the fish and Chris then set them up for us to take pictures with and he then proceeded to clean all 60. To say he was a master would be an understatement – I think he finished all 60 in a matter of 15 minutes.
I don’t claim to be in the best physical shape, and training for the 5k I ran on flat surfaces (the Dirty 30 was all terrain hills and valleys) I think I did ok finishing in 48 minutes. I was more proud of the fact that I survived with at least one flag left (the zombies tried to “kill you” by taking three flag football flags). I would recommend anyone, no matter your age or your physical ability, to run a 5k at least once in your life! If not for anything than to say you did it! If you want more information about the Dirty 30 (they have a regular one with no zombies) check out their
