Inside Joe’s Head

My little brother Jimmy made this video a couple years ago. I recently came across it again and it made me laugh so hard. I miss you Jimmy!

Project for my photojournalism class. We had to make a video self portrait without actually having a video of us in it. We had to use our voices and only could use content we created last night. We had one day to complete this. It was my first video. Video is also available in HD, which I recommend.

What do you think?

So, today we had an exercise in photojournalism class. We had to observe someone without them knowing and we have to come up with a story of their lives. I picked a women in a grocery store and came up with a whole narrative of who she was. The other project I had to do was approach a person I don’t know and interview them. This is where I met Chris Kim. This inspired me to write, super crazy coincidences. So, I haven’t met anyone from California in this town let alone someone who was born in the same town as me. We grew up in the same area and have lots of similarities. We both play violin, our favorite food is sushi. I’m just tripping and wanted to express it.

And now I leave you this, a voicemail my friend John left me today.

Melissa! I miss you! Thanks for calling me last night and leaving me this most excellent voicemail.

I need to do a proper post that talks about my trip to Rochester, as well as my first few weeks here. However, the photography program here is taking ALL of my free time so I’m limited.

Although, I did manage to take this small clip of some of my new friends.

As you can tell we joke around a lot and get along great.

So as it turns out I am starting my adventure today and not tomorrow. The original plan was to drive from here to Denver, CO. That changed to Moab, UT where I’m going to camp with some friends. However, I got the idea of why not couchsurfing in between tonight that way I don’t have to drive 12 hours in one day I can split it 6 and 6. So I found a generous chap that is going to let me crash at his place tonight and that’s bumped my plans of coming to right now.

Next stop! St. George, UT!

I’ve decided to finally go through some of the movies I’ve been making with both my iPhone and my new Canon 5D Mark II. I got FInal Cut Express and have learned it pretty quickly… forgive the cuts and noob mistakes. This is a collection of some of the music I really enjoyed listening to this past year at SX, hope you enjoy it.

Since highschool my friends and I have had this tradition of leaving musical voicemails on each other phones… most times they’re made up. I like to leave them on my phone as long as possible because most times they are absolutely freaking hilarious. Thanks to Google Voice I can now share these awesome voicemails with the world.

Here is my friend John Trojan, leaving me a voicemail from two days ago.
