Feet Shuffling And Progress

 

Sorry for the M.I.A this past Friday, I was busy working on Foley work for the absent Director and warping up that project with him. Once he signed the contract and sent over the first half of the money, it was smooth sailing. I was able to complete the work in two days that we agreed upon and even did a little bit of tweaking of the feet on friday after he paid me the rest of the money. Over all the experience went well and he was happy with the end result and so was I.

I was able to get into contact with the director for the documentary. I was getting worried since I was suppose to get the trailer for the documentary last week and I never did. Luckily She got back t me and now I have a week to complete it before it goes to the client, but if I need more time she said she will stale for me. After viewing the raw mix, it's not so bad and can punch it out this week and still have time for revisions.

With all this work my Poison Ivy costume had to take a back seat for a bit, but now I'm feeling the crunch and need to step up on completing her before ECCC. I just need to hand sew (yes this is why it is taking so damn long, I really need to buy a sewing machine) the top portion and hem it. I am planing on beaning that out the next couple of days then starting on the embroidery for the top. I've ordered more leaves and need to start sewing those on. Oh and lets not forget about making that bustle, shall we... I think I will make it....I hope. If I plan on making the entire bustle this weekend I should be ok.

This weekend I did take a break from everything and went to my friend Arwen Cosplay's birthday at the EMP. It was great to get out of my work space/home and to try to remember how to interact with people. You should check out her facebook page, give it a like and say hi to her at ECCC. She will be appearing all 3 days in 3 different costumes. Click the picture below to get to her page.

So this week working on the trailer mix and trying to work on Ivy. I will post something this Friday I promise, have a good week little bots!

See you on the other side

Busy

Hey bots, to busy to sit down and write a blog today.  Have to finish working on a few project and make some head way for Poison Ivy.  Be back Monday with a proper blog.

Hanging Out With The Parents And V-Day

 

Wow, it is supper sunny here in Seattle. I wish we got some snow this year, supper jealous of you east coasters. Last week I visited my parents, my dad came home for retirement and I wanted to say hi. But I was mainly over there since I had a dermatologist appointment. My mother made the appointment for me due to my stupidity many years ago in my teen years of sitting out in the sun and getting really bad burns. The good news is my sink looks great and don’t need a follow up appointment any time soon. The bad is I have a few moles that I didn’t know about on my back but they look ok. While I was there I was treated to very delicious meals from Port Gamble and over here in Seattle.

This past weekend was Valentines day weekend and everyone decided to invade downtown. So I thought I would avoid everyone and go up to Capitol Hill and checkout the Starbucks Roastery cafe. But all the tourist decided to invade, so we just went into the Serious pie restaurant which is attached to the roastery for some lunch. After lunch we went to the comic book shop to pick up our comics and went home to relax. I asked for nothing on V-day because my couch I'm count as my x-mas/anniversary/valentines gift since it was an expensive couch. But I did get my man a Life Aquatic themed gifts, which included a steve shirt and a Kingsly red hat.

Quick work update: still waiting for the documentary trailer, final got the absent director to sign the contract but now waiting for him to send me the money so I can start. Going to have to send him an email tomorrow if he doesn’t send it soon. And finally I was contacted by a recurter for Holo Lens, I talked to them and said I would be interested but I have my doubts of getting the job since the recurter said they were looking for some one with game audio experience. And this morning I revived an email from the recurter saying they’re going to hire people with game audio experience. Called it.

Have a good week little bots, I will be working very hard on finishing the sheer top part of my ivy costume, and start working on the embroidery for the top as well. See you all friday for a bitch out session on probably the absent director.

See you on the other side.

Working On Cosplay

 

Early morning blog just for you little bots. I've had a productive week of working on my Poison Ivy costume for ECCC. I've duck taped my body to use... that turned out horrible so my man bough me a dress form and I was on my way to mocking up patterns, cutting up fabric, and painting my shoes. I'm happy to say the shoes are 95% done, they just need some leaves glued onto the back of the heel and those puppies are done!

I just need to sew up the top part by hand since I still do not have a sewing machine. What fun. Once that is all sewed up and looks all right, I just have to embroider like a mad woman and add those pieces to the top and sew on leaves the body... fingers crossed that I have time to do it all before the end of March.

Besides working on my costume, I've been working on writing up a contract for the missing director. I heard back from him on Monday evening, he answered 2 of my 3 questions so I had to write him back and wait until Saturday night to hear his response to my last question. Apparently a family member was in the hospital... where have I heard that one before. Regardless I sent out the contract Sunday morning and now just waiting on him to fill out his info and sign it. Lets see how long he takes to do this...

If you follow me on instagram, you can see that this week I've turned into a hipster. Kill me now. My man bought a Guardians of the Galaxy vinyl record and wanted to buy a record player to listen to it. So after driving around and out 600 bucks we have a nice setup to listen to records. What has downtown done to me!

This week I'm visiting my parents for a few days then I'm going to do romantic weekend with my man. What do we do for romance you may ask, well we are going to sit around and play video games and avoid the love struck crowd that will be invading our streets on Saturday. Yup, we are going that old couple that glares at the young and yell at them to keep off our grass, or streets. So have a good week little bots, catch you Friday!

Bitch'n Fridays: Random Complaining

Today feels like every annoying thing that I despise has trapped me in small room with them as they poke me with sticks. So todays blog is a quick fire of the things that are annoying me right now. If this isn’t your cup of tea, I should be back to normal on Monday. Onto my bitch rants!

People Not responding to emails quickly.

Still waiting on ol' missing director on answering an email I sent on Monday asking him to a few questions that I need answered so I can finish writing up a contract and have him sign it. It's 2015, if you are not looking at all your email addresses at least once a day then you should not be trying to business over the internet!

My Cats

I love my hairy babies but sometimes they drive me up the wall. For example peeing right out the litter box when it is clean or shitting on the couch. You have a clean bill of health, the box is clean...WTF! Also fucking around with small object and meowing at closed doors after my man and I squirt you with the water bottle, you are driving me up the wall!

New Moms on social media

Ok, I get it you had sex and now you are showing off your fuck trophy. Guess what... No one cares out side your mediate family. Your baby looks like every other baby in the world and posting 50 pictures a day of you kid sleeping eyes open, he/she looks the same in every photo and it's clogging up my news feed. Don’t be surprised I un-follow your ass after you have a kid.

TLC channel

Do I even have to go into detail why this channel is awful.

So that is all I feel like ranting out for now. I need to go work out, shower, eat, and work on my costume for ECCC. See you Monday when I'm in better mood.

Sadness Upon The City

If you watched the Superbowl last night you know that Seattle lost due to poor coaching decisions. It was stupid to throw the ball instead of handing it off to Lynch who was outstanding last night. I'm still a fan of my Seahawks just a very sad fan for the next few days.

Besides watching a very suspenseful Superbowl, last week I was busy finishing up the two documentary clean up work and finished my 30 day work out challenges. I'm pretty proud of myself for sticking with the challenge. Now I just need to keep up with working out and lose some more weight.

Other than that I did receive a message back from the director almost immediately after sending him the ultimatum email. I sent him back an email trying to get the ball moving again to start filling out the contact, set a date of completion, and how to give him the files. But to my amazement he doesn’t reply for another week. He want my Paypal info so he can send me money but I'm getting weird feelings. So I shall send him another email for him to hold on to the money until we have a contract in place. I'm having my doubts on this guy.

Have a good week little bots, I now have an instagram account it's SchadGirl just like my twitter. See you friday for some ranting or update on weird director guy.

5 Things I'm Obsessed With This Week: 1/30/2015

I'm on my last day of my 30 day challenges except for the arms which are 31... yeah should have paid more attention to that one. So while I'm finishing that part of my resolution up I thought I would put up what I'm obsessing over this week for you little bots to check out.

Nessie Ladle:

Its so cute and I really want it for my kitchen to put my other ladles to shame!

Sushi Socks:

Don’t know if its because I've been wanting to eat sushi lately or that these would be amazing on my feet...

Chain Chronicle:

A Sega mobile game that I recently put on my phone and sadly have become addicted to it. It's a fun little RPG that was released back in December to the US, find out more by clicking the picture down below.

Sailor Saturn:

I finally have a Sailor Saturn figurine, I broke down and bought one from Barns and Noble (I have two 2o dollar gift cards from them so it only cost me 9 bucks, sweet deal!). For it being small it is supper detailed and I like the fact that you can change out the face and hands easily.

Super Bowl 49:

You know I will be routing for my beloved Seahawks to whop on those cheating Patriots. Fingers crossed I don’t get a heart attack while watching the game, it's going to be a close one and I'm already nervous.

I'll catch you little bots Monday if my heart hasn’t given out by them.
