new project: jei & i.

STAC Live is vastly approaching, which means all preparation must be getting done.
My big thing in STAC was photography. I don't like how I use the term was, but it seems to be the best way to explain this. I have been lacking on my photography. I barely carry my camera around. And by barely, I mean that I never do. I don't even bring it to parties. It basically has a permanent spot on my shelf.
But I do have my iPhone. Strange enough, I haven't lost touch with photography. Right now, over the last three months, i have about 1,500 photos on my phone. I edit a bunch of them, just as if i took photos on my camera and edited them on my computer. My phone is more accessible and faster. Ergo, here's where my iPhone photography kicked in.
Luke noticed it, since I posted it on Facebook, and I've been getting positive feedback on it. I was looking forward to making commercials, but Luke decided to give me a different assignment: a slideshow for STAC Live. This is where Jei comes in. Jei has the ability to play instruments and make amazing music. But Jei never composed/wrote his own pieces. Here's the assignment: a slideshow with my iPhone photography and Jei's own music.
I'm pretty excited and hope all goes well. It's cool that I can have my pictures displayed and Jei's music played. Can't wait!
