Matrix Moves Matrix Moves

I'm just posting this for the sake of posting. Above is my weak attempt to recreate the matrix bullet ripple effect using primitive photoshop techiniques. Granted I didn't spend a whole lot of time or effort on it, but I'd say it's at least decent. The green is actually from my monitor (which was showing a white page at the time oddly enough), and is the only light source in the pic. It makes a neat gradient off the white backdrop (a sheet of paper). I also have a regularly lit version, but I like the green better. (more here). This is what happens when I get bored. And yes, he is balancing on his own, unaided.

At work I saw a (brief) preview of the Alien vs Predator movie. I didn't even know they were making one, but the very idea is pretty sweet. I can't wait for that one. How often do you get to combine two of your favorite movies into one? I'm not gonna have high expectations for it though since most movies these days tend to suck. Hopefully this won't be one of them.

Haha that is cool as hell. What type of camera do you have? (Model) It's got damn good resolution - 5megapixel?

hehe, actually it's only 3.3 megapixel. It's a Sony Cybershot DSC-S75. My parents bought it on sale a while back along with a digital video camera. Both are a little old, but pretty sweet anyway. It goes up to some crazy resolution like 2048x1536. I use the hell out of the camera, it's awesome. It can do short mpegs too. The Magnet video was shot using the camera, heh.

Hahaha I first thought that was a knife he was throwing into the ceiling. I was telling Beca about that story (remember your friend Beca?) today. We're gonna hang out at the union tomorrow.
