Video Sunday: Minus Shoes

September 21, 2008 by Betsy Bird   2 comments


It was a slow week for videos (read: I didn’t have time to look for videos this week) so what I’m offering today is going to be a little more random than usual. First off, I was delighted to find that there is new online show called Cartoon Brew TV. Their first episode just aired called Doxology. Great music involved. You must give it a taste.



Thanks to Drawn for the link.

Author Sam Riddleburger indulges in some awesome card flourishes using a pack designed by author/illustrator Cece Bell.  Beholdeth.


Full credit to Sara O’Leary for finding this one. This is advice from YA author Susan Juby (Alice, I Think, Miss Smithers, Alice MacLeod: Realist at Last, and Another Kind of Cowboy). If you are an author with any screen presence whatsoever, take a page out of Juby’s book here. This is a great idea for a regular advice v-blog.

We begin random and we end random. So the circle continues. Animation is my weakness and this is a particularly toothsome delight found via BoingBoing. Sometimes it’s just fun to watch people using their brains.
