Funny: after watching this I feel... different, somehow.
That was a fun one! You guys are an inspiration.
soul-der-ring? Soldering--it's pronounced sah-der-ring.
Hmm apparently Brits pronounce soldering differently...
Lookin\' pretty blissful there, Chuck.
Weird (and wonderful) show. I like Joanne\'s faces throughout... and the glass \'crash\' when she throws stuff... \'would be great if that sound effect worked when I throw paper wads into my trash can... HEY! I just thought of a million dollar idea!!!!!
So, I read in Newsweek that there are multiple universes - which explains away dark matter and leaking gravity - and the questions scientists ask isn\'t \"why?\" anymore... just \"Is.\"
Oh well... you don\'t need a weather man to know which way the wind blows ;-)

I love the new flash player/ad system. Please be a-keepin' this fahwever. Thankyou
Not a big fan of the new flash-ads at all! They consistently crash iTunes for me when I view rocketboom in fullscreen mode. I think this has forced me to stop watching altogether
good
@ the time & with that particular generation (mine) the Beatles were bigger & they plugged me into a spiritual consciousness not found in any church.
btw, here's my first attempt @ stop motion animation, took me 6 hours & 1,500 pics but what fun it was! enjoy...
later people
Nice segue into your own movie! And nice piece of work too! Did you have the day off? Waves too small yesterday? :)
Nice Kam!!
Thanks D, a little about how & why.
I was checking David Pouge @ NYT & his 10 year old kid did a stop motion that was great & I thought, if a 10 year old can do it, so can I!
You need to download iStopMotion for a free 5 day trial.
The reason I used the mirror to project the piece, is because using the built-in iSight on my iMac I couldn't get a straight down shot. I just bought a Mac external iSight camera on eBay w/a flex stand, so that will enable me to shot from any angle.
I kinda like the fact that the dice appear on the desk but it was a trick getting the dice to follow the edges of the bamboo frame, all part of the visual interaction, lotta stuff going on there @ the end.
I've got some cool ideas in the works. Stay tuned.
This post from Ellie on the blog reminds me of something that might be good inspiration for props:

Also,
Have you ever really just looked at your dice?
yeah, but it makes me see spots! why do you ask?
They're... just... so....
Sorry, what was I saying?
PLEASE DON'T READ THIS. You will get kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. However, if you don't post this comment to at least 3 videos, you will die within 2 days. Copy and paste this, to be saved
I love how you connect all these weird things together so beautifully. (Yes, I\'m completely blissed out!)
They need the ads now so that Joanne can continue to buy her cute outfits. We all want that right?
Joanne said \"You say hello, I say goodbye\" when she answered her iphone-it\'s a reference to the beatles
Nice episode. Maybe Sarah Silverman can sit in someday.
Thought the quasi-subliminal image imbeds were pointless and annoying. WTF\'s up with that? Otherwise a decent episode.
The flash thingy seems to totally screw playback in Miro. I only get a few seconds of video then a blank screen.
Pah!
Adverts are the work of the devil, anyway.
Thanks for the nice comments everyone
Yeah, the flash ad is a bane. If this really keeps up, I know I won't be watching as often.
I used to turn on the computer in the morning thinking "Oh boy! New Rocketboom!" Now I take care of business, and figure if I'm really bored I'll check out the commercially sponsored vidcast.
I miss the excitement, I do.
Thanks for the feedback, we're very sensitive to this right now too as we test the waters with this. BTW, you can watch without the overlays too if you insist, by watching one of the other file versions.
Hmm. People are sooooo ticked off about the overlays. Hard for me to grasp. I mean, nothing pisses me off more than trying to grab a short vid off some site and being forced to sit through a 30-second spot, ripped right from the TV screen. I curse the ad-placer, vow not to spend any money with them, hit the mute and wait them out. But it still sucks.
The overlay? Hell, I can click it off. Bothers me about a tenth as much.
BTW, I am now getting the ads just as they are intended. Thanks for \"fixing\" them, heh.
One of the other file versions? When I arrive at the site, I immediately click on the "Quicktime" link, cause my computer seems to have major issues with flash (in firefox). The overlay is still there in the Quicktime version, so I'm not sure I understand - the ad also causes the video to freeze and the audio to stutter as long as it's open.
If you have a problem with the ads, and you also have a problem with playing flash (the flash problem I recommend fixing to enjoy a richer web), there are still a few other options. We have an HD file and feed which is a really nice quicktime file that does not have the overlays. We also have a .wmv file and feed. There are also 3 kinds of 3gps (sm, lrg, stream), there is a PSP file that also works and has a feed and does not support the overlay.
You can access these through the RSS feeds page or the bottom of every video.
Stop self-monitoring yourself to boost your egos and get back to finding cool stuff! :-) PS. I have a crush on Joanne? By golly, I do!! And don't get a big head about it, missy!
It depends where you live in the Anglo-Saxon world.
In Southern Ontario we pronounce it soul-der-ring. We also pronounce 'aunt' as 'ant', yet just across the lakes it's pronounced as 'aw-nt'.
There is no correction pronounciation of anything in English. It would need to expand its alphabet to have nearly 50 letters if it wanted to standardize spelling.
i wannan bown that chik
