Snake Charmers: YouTube Branding

I did a bit of branding for a new YouTube comedy channel: Snake Charmers.
It's managed by my friend from a few posts ago, Molly McIsaac,
and I am already scripting a few of its initial videos.

I'm enjoying these short-form writing projects after the success of Harvest Moon,
and I'm anxious to see how my new work will be received.

A haul video of all of the artwork I purchased (or was gifted, thanks Dean!) at ECCC!
And photographs below if you don't have 20 minutes to waste watching Molly and I
drink and describe how much we like everything we came home with!

Gritty Reboots: Harvest Moon

Before there was Farmville, there was Harvest Moon, one of my favorite video games of all time.
Part dating-sim, part RPG, Harvest Moon was the perfect title for uncool kids like me who thought completing virtual farm chores sounded fun. I remember playing hours upon hours of this game on Playstation and Gameboy (we didn't have an N64, and I have yet to get a DS).
So, what happens if you take this sweet and simple game and make it... grittier? Find out below.

Oh! And did I mention I play all six of the female characters in this video?

Molly McIsaac: The Geeky Peacock

My friend Molly over at The Geeky Peacock is a geeky renaissance woman who comes out with cute new cards for each spring convention season. This year, I designed her cards. Check 'em out.

Beige is the new Black

I love beige. I love you beige.

I love vintage electronics, too.

2016 is the 40th anniversary of the founding of Apple Computers,

any chance for a beige plastic throwback MacBook pro?
