Finished Editing My Podcast

After shopping, I came back home and tried to finish editing my Knights of the Guild podcast. I had done alot of the editing already.. but still had to do the final pass and audio pass. I finished around 11pm and started the convert the audio, as I have to output it, then level the audio, then convert to mp3 before it's done. But should be done in a few hours and all ready to be uploaded and out by April 15th.

Shopping

There is one thing that is very true about owning a house.. you are never at a lose for things to buy. So once again Harry and I head out to go shopping.. this time we hit Michael's (looking for frames for cool drawings for our TV room), Bed, Bath and Beyond (looking for collector plates hangers).

We then were heading to Ross (to look for a nightstand) but we took a detour into Sports Chalet to look for a at home Gym.. and we found a really nice one. If we had the space in the garage I'd have bought it right then and there... but we still have to clean up a bit before then. But I really want to get it ASAP so I can start working out again.

We headed to Ross afterwards and found nothing.. then to Target and again found no cool nightstands for our guest room..
Publish Post

We were all shopped out by then and headed home.

Doctor Who

Watch the second episode of the new Doctor Who and still loving it. Steven Moffat writes such interesting stories.. so much emotions and OMG moments. Matt Smith still amazes me, it feels like he's been playing The Doctor for years. And Karen Gillan is so enchanting as his companion.. can't wait for next Saturday

Going to the Streamy's

Today Kim Evey (producer of The Guild) called and confirm that I indeed had a guest ticket to the Streamy Awards. If you don't know what the Streamy's are.. they are the award for Web series and Web Content. This is it's second year and I had a ticket for last years but opted to not go and was very bummed after the fact.. so when Kim asked if I wanted a ticket for this years I was quick to say yes. They are this Sunday and you can watch live online at http://www.streamys.org/

Editing the Podcast

After the great interview I continued to edit my next podcast. I did alot of the prep work already and all that was left to do was to put everything together. It took a few hours but I manage to get everything strung together and I'm really happy with it. Still need to do one final pass and polish and also I need to do a SFX pass. Since we are suppose to be in an Cafe I need to add crowd sfx. I still have a week to finish but should be done with it in the next few days.. then I can move on to part 2 which isnt' due until the end of the month.

Interview with Teal Sherer

Tonight after work I rushed home to do an interview with Teal Sherer (Venom on The Guild) for my Knights of the Guild podcast. Jenni is still on the east coast and couldn't make the interview so I was doing it solo. Earlier in the week I had tweeted about doing the interview and asked for questions and the listeners really stepped up and sent me a bunch of cool and interesting questions.

I have to say this was on of my favorite interviews that I have done so far for KOTG. Teal is a very sweet and intelligent lady who gave really good honest answers... it flowed so well.

And you guys will be able to enjoy this interview in our next podcast Knights of the Guild Ep. 15 part 1 which will be released on April 15th.

KOTG Microcast #16 Quest for Comic Signing

This Microcast covers the Guild’s comic book signing at Golden Apple in Hollywood. It started out as Felicia Day only but soon all six cast members were going to be there to sign. I wanted to do this microcast for all the fans who couldn’t make it. Jenni (my co-host) is on the East coast so I asked a good friend of mine Greg Aronowitz to join me, which he happily did. So we got there around 5 and there was already a line forming. We interviewed some fans who were waiting and then went inside when the event started. Most of the night I was the “muscle” and stood by Felicia and made sure no one went behind the table. It was a very well organized event and everything went very smoothly. After the last person in line (they had to close off the line). I joined in and had my owe comic books signed.. I might work for The Guild but I’m still a fanboy. :) Greg and I also did mini interviews with each cast members about the experience and being in a comic book and an interview with the store owner Ryan.

It was a great night, Greg was a super substitute co-host and hopefully this microcast brought the signing to everyone.

You can see more pictures on my flickr account..

Thanks for listening

Family Visit

My family is not religious so Easter really isn't that important to us. But we do normally get together for a dinner and this year I thought it would be fun to invite my family to our new house. Harry and I have been here for over seven months but they still haven't seen it. So my Dad, Brother, Sister-in-law and Nephew joined us today for an "Easter" dinner.

It was fun as normally we go over to Dad's and he cooks the dinners but this time I was cook the dinner. I was surprised that Michael found the place with no problem. Of course the mentioned how we were in the middle of no where, everyone who visits us says the same thing. We then took them on a tour of the house and they all liked the place. We then took them on a tour of the land, Dad, Lora and Kenobi walked around for a bit but then went inside while Harry, Michael and I continued to walk around. Mike saw all the potential with the land.

After the tour we went inside and made a fire and sat around and chatted. It was kind of nice as when we visit them we normally sit around and watch TV, so this was a nice change. Of course a few hours in Mike mentioned a Lakers games and he and Dad headed to the TV room to watch. Lora hung out with Harry and I as I started Dinner.

Dinner turned out pretty good, everything seemed to like the meal. We visited another hour or so and then they decided to head home as they wanted to get home before the sun went down.

All in all it was a great day filled with food and family.
