My visual interpretation of the RegularJOE's tiny story. The first thing that came to my mind was mismatched expectations in a love relationship.

As wirrow's "tiny stories" collaboration steps into the spotlight via our newly published Tiny Book of Tiny Stories, I'd like to start shining light on short film adaptations as well. I made this bumper to go in front of those short films in order to unify them into some semblance of a series. Also, I'd like to see Marke's "Now Available go at the end.

aszarkowski did this VO for the animated video peripheral vision that I really liked, so I wanted to fix the levels and added some reverb to give it that outerspace sound.  I'm really not a video person so if some could add this to the video I resourced it would be greatly appreciated.  I would also recommend adding a Hitrecord logo at the end of the video so the audio can play out all the way.

a reading of my sonnet (thanks to HelloLindsayyyyyy for the suggestion of doing a reading), written sometime in 2004 and RECorded here 1/10/11



How must one descend into maddness, 
Simply from the touch of her eyes? 
All at once: Defining joy and sadness, 
Through expectation and suprise. 
Withstand me this force, angels on high; 
For I fear it be too much. 
As love defeats me with a sigh, 
And holds me a prisoner as such. 
How I revel in this civil mental brawl, 
That I, the weaker, cannot reprieve; 
For whether I was born to walk or crawl: 
From her, I shall never leave.


 


And such it will be from day unto night, 
So long as that madness stays within sight.

we can be star-ways upside down-ways any way you like


we see moons n suns where others see the city lights


i know you like the fear, ive seen your eyes light up


when theres a human sacrifice


i know you like to panic and ring the alarms


but we are superloving creatures and we mean you no harm


you're never alone you know


it's a wonderful life

Spiderrrr

"I fear I might be paranoid" - spider vs human


EDIT: Yeah it's a bit obscure... but I remember this time when I saw a black spider on the wall. I was really scared and I wondered if I should kill it. If it wasn't poisonous, then I wouldn't care I'd just stick it outside. But what if it was....and to be on the safe side I squished it. Is that being paranoid? To be better safe than sorry?


In the drawing, a human is killing a spider with spray just as the spider is about to attack. So the human is paranoid and thinks the spider is going to kill them, the spider is paranoid and thinks the human is going to kill them...and they have every right to be paranoid... yeah........so either the human or the spider is saying 'I fear I might be paranoid'...? Eh

I just saw Rochelle Boucher's Tiny Story and immediately decided to write another Tiny Tune with it. My daughter demanded to sit in my lap and sing along, and I thought it was just too adorable not to share. I'll be recording a regular version later today once my kids are asleep, and I'd love to see maybe a Tiny Film or Tiny Animation come from this!

The physician’s wife was told that an apple a day kept the doctor away.
Each evening she would eat two apples (just to be safe).
But much to her dismay, her husband still kept coming home.

This is REmix RECord using bryn_haz's story and eNgma's drawing. I tweaked the strawberry to become an apple. I think this image is good enough to capture reader's attention without giving too much away.

as soon as i posted Beat 714 i began work on finding a lyrical/melodic idea that could work for it. i imagined something like a hip-hop/soul flow for it.


I searched through KamPaign's HitRECord Hip-Hop collection and found RayPerez's "Let's Finish This" RECord and put them together.
I really liked the lyric of there being "no borders between HitRECorders" so I made that the refrain.
I contacted and collaborated in correspondence with mr ray perez on creating new lyrics with this theme in mind.
in the meantime, I really liked what AboutGeorgia and Jay-9 contributed to the beat, and i added them into the mix.
somewhere along the line, i got inspired to write a rap verse and even took the mic for it on the RECording
(my first ever "rap" please don't judge me i'm just trying to laugh while my ass gets down)


now this ain't no final version. if you feel like adding some flow or singing to this, do it! let's get some more voices on this.


*coRegularJoeugh!*


 


 'scuse me.


;)


a very very very big thanks to mr. ray perez for the awesome collaboration, and to aboutgeorgia and jay-9 for singing along :) <3


There ain't no borders between HitRECorders.

Yet another illustration for this fantastic tiny story! I was rereading this tiny story the other night while listening to the soundtrack of the Japanese anime "The Garden of Sinners (part 1)" and that's when the idea for this piece came to me (those who have seen the film would probably understand the reason behind this). Oh and I FAIL at perspectives, which I blame entirely on my lack of practice in observational drawings.

Okay...Here is the full audio mix of Morgan & Destiny's Eleventeeth Date. I pulled the music off the site from Nathan, combined it with the sound design I've done over here utilizing contributions from hitRECorders and some of my own work, and mixed it all together.

In fact, I'm at my studio in Los Angeles, putting this version up for the hitRECord crew in Austin to make the final file for tonight's SXSW screening. There's no picture...It's just a big, fat, stereo WAV at 48Khz, 24 bit. It's about 120 mb, so it might not stream off the site. But you can download it.

The stars came down from high above.


The seahorse came from far below.


If both are true, then truth be told, there’s nowhere you and I can’t go.

This illustration is about the joy of sharing two lives, and the delightful flavor that independence and individuality can bring to love.


Illustration for RegularJoe's tiny story.

not really an illustration, but i'm having fun. i actually think this tiny story could do well if the shadow beings were inanimate objects. two things, that by day, are apart, but as the sun goes down and the shadows appear, they come closer together. you know what i mean?
