dummy making videos

If you watched my latest video you might have noticed when I show Sam the kobo app he says the title of the book I'm reading is Ventriloquism for Fun & Profit. That is the name of the book that taught Terry Fator what he does in Las Vegas every night. I actually did download that book. It was made by one of my favourite ventriloquists Paul Winchell. I downloaded because it tells me two ways to make ventriloquist dummies. The ebook I got off ebay only told me to how to make the head so I've been looking through a few books lately and trying to figure out the best way to make a dummy. Some people think the best way is with a 3D printer or make them out of fiberglass. I can't afford those things and this book gives me an easier way to do it. If I ever get around to buying all the stuff I need to do it I might make a few videos showing how to make one using the techniques from this book that was made in 1928. And also I found out a while ago that the dummytalkers youtube channel that I made fun of in my third video was deleted. Apparently the channel was about to be banned so someone known as fuzzypickle122 deleted it and than said "ventriloquism is a retarded and kiddish talent so stop complaining and grow up". I disagree with that. Just because you decided to quit ventriloquism, fuzzypickle122 doesn't mean you get to decide to shut down the group for everybody else.

I now have the iPad

A few days ago I got my uncle to buy me the ipad. I got the 16gb wifi one. I didn't want to pay for it monthly so I didn't get the 3G one. Unfortunately I found out later that most people reccomend you get the 32gb or 64gb iPad because the 16gb runs out of memory fast. One of the apps I downloaded is the blogger app so I can update this blog from it. I'm using it right now to type this. In my latest video you can see me showing the iPad to Sam. Incase you can't tell, I didn't really break my iPad in it. It's actually a 3D animation of it being thrown.

Sam Episode 8

If you've been watching my videos, you've probably noticed I haven't made a new one in almost a month. That's because at the start of February I started helping out a Digital Gadgets class. I helped out the class two years ago and than they got a different teacher for it. The original teacher came back and she asked me to help again so I said that I would. I've also been taking stuff out of my grandfather's house that we just sold and I'm trying to find the tools and other stuff I need to make my own dummy. I got an ebook a while ago that told me a pretty easy way to make my own dummy but it was written in 1928 so I can't find some of the stuff I need. And I also started filming a new video for Red Skeleton Films.

LLC video is down

If you tried to watch the video of me and Steve at Lifetime Learning Centre today you won't be able to. I had to delete it off youtube because I didn't have permission from any of the students to put it on youtube so the school asked me to take it down.

I don't know when my next video will be up

I was going to record a new video on Saturday but I ended up getting a sore throat so I don't know when I will get it done. I already filmed the new video but I was gonna redo it because I forgot to do a lot of the new jokes I came up with after seeing Jeff Dunham in Toronto. Other than ventriloquism I also started working on my own video game. I don't have a title for it right now but it has some stuff to do with time travel. I've been looking up a few game engines and according to some people the easiest one to learn is one called Unity. I won't make any promises since my game ideas don't always get finished. I've downloaded programs that let me change stuff in old mario games but I don't always finish them. I think I only finished one game. I tried to make one with Game Maker but all I have is a demo of one level with a few blocks and a Super Mario World sprite of Mario. The one I'm working on right now has nothing to do with Mario. Everything in it is my own creation. I've been learning 3DS Max so most of the graphics and models will be made with that program.
