I Am A Man Of Action.

My New Years Resolution for 2009 is to attempt and try to learn how to sing better. I would love to join a band some day, but that's still iffy. I really only like a band when I like their singer, or their singer is insanely good. So, if I don't like my own singing, I won't like my own band, therefore won't be able to be in one. My track record of liking my own work of any kind isn't all that good so it will take a lot for me to get where I want to be, but today I'm one step closer.

I took the initiative and signed up for vocal coaching today, I start this weekend.

I am a man of action.

New Jumping Animation (WIP)

http://www.jaygrenier.com/animation/gallery/spearJump.mov

Hey guys, I did this animation test yesterday and thought I'd put it up for all to see. I'm not 100% done, but it's almost there. Waiting for some critiques then I'll give it a final pass.

Done with the animation mentor rig, "Bishop".

I wish I was a power metal singer.

I think my most powerful wish I've had throughout my entire lifetime was that I could have been born with the skill to be a REALLY sick power metal singer. I can sing relatively well right now, but it's nowhere near good enough. I could probably hold my own in a decent band even, but its nowhere near where I want to be. I need to hit Heiman notes, I need to hit Matt Smith notes. I need to hit Toby Sammett notes. Roy Khan even.

YEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Seriously, I want to hit notes for days.

I'm going to start taking lessons this year, New Years Resolution.

Cheese, Bread, Cheese, Wine, & Cheese. And Wine.

All of the above are awesome.

Today was spent eating cheese and bread, drinking a little bit of nouveau wine, animating on a new shot and hanging' with the Em. No complaints on today, in fact it was awesome! Tomorrow is shaping up for awesomeness as well, stay tuned!

P.S. Emily made a blogger finally, not sure what it is though. ^^
