Huh, you're doing a website for your dad's company? Was he there, too?

Man, Andrew and I had dinner with Dennis Head last night to discuss the website he's doing for them. It was wild. Tonight, I'm going back to Manhattan to meet with a local producer who need writers for a short"mockumentary" he wants to enter into some New York film festival on July 31st, should be interesting. And here's a sales letter I wrote yesterday:

A Summer Tragedy in One Act

How can one be certain of summer? Though the warmer months call out to us, they do so indirectly, and through sound. Sound, though, can be ambiguous. The crickets chirp, but then crickets do little else throughout the year, not having jobs or even prospects. And people will tell you that summer is here again. But perhaps they mean this metaphorically.

Summer is ready when you are.

Summer does, though, have one set of sounds all its own, centered around the neighborhood little league field.

First, one hears the crack of the bat; then comes silence as a dozen eyes follow the ball in turn; then the satisfying crash of glass; and, finally, the squeals of pleasure from the team that just scored a homer, mingled with the scream of horror from the parent whose late-model Lexus just took one for the team. Summer takes it victims where it can get them.

A little foresight is a dangerous thing.

Was the batter to blame? Certainly not. The real fault lies with those who stuck the parking lot where parking lots ought not to be stuck. Having people park beyond left field may have sounded good on paper, but paper has its limitations, which is to say that it also has its problems. What the designers really needed was comprehensive 3d modeling of the sort that Studio2a has been providing to clients of all kinds for years. A problem anticipated is a problem avoided, after all, and when it comes to design, nothing anticipates like 3d.

Problem solved.

The benefits of Studio2a's accurate, photorealistic 3d renderings are hard to overstate. Having a technically comprehensive, aesthetically appealing model can assist your firm in avoiding many of the common problems that engineers, architects, and the like have long since come to accept as just another cost of doing business. 3D ensures accuracy of communication, helping to eliminate the possibility of change orders, lost man hours, wasted resources, shattered windshields, and other, equally unnecessary nonsense.

Summer giveth, and summer taketh away. We just do 3d.

Our designers, architects, and engineers are ready to go to bat for your company in ways you may not have considered. Step up to the plate today and learn what Studio2a's unparalleled approach to 3d can do for you.

Studio2a. When only certainty will suffice

Ha. Very cool.

How are you, MSTG?

I drove down to Belton yesterday with Grandma to visit all your country cousins. Jocelyn went with us and we were all glad to get back to big D and civilization.

Am twiddling my thumbs in between assignments from Prism, need to figure out something else to do to use my talents. Can't figure out how that website we discussed would bring in any decent amount of bucks. Still thinking, let me know if you come up with any ideas for me?

Love you -

I mentioned that the next big thing is here - it's the precursor to Spore, made by the people who did The Sims. They released the "Creature Creator" over the weekend, and the internet is all abuzz and whatnot. Here's a clip of one I made.
