Today we wrapped on filming the next Krazy Ken episode. I challenged Heidi (the artist who makes our YouTube channel art and the Krazy Ken avatars) to draw pictures on an Apple //e with the KoalaPad! I attached a few ungraded still frames below…

Coming up next, it's the KoalaPad! Here's a couple behind the scenes shots from the studio prep. Some parts of the episode have already been shot, but the rest is coming up fast!
The main holdup was I didn't have a Unidisk to load the software! Thankfully, I found one...

The personalized postcards have been a hit! Thank you! Because of the limited supply, I had to reset the tier. If you want any of the remaining personalized merch, please choose the new "Personal Touch" tier now! Supply is limited!
As for people who already p...

NEW EPISODE! Get it while it's hot. It'll go public tomorrow, but ya'll are special, so you can have the full-length episode now! Also…
Have a bonus pic. This is the infamous "puck" mouse. Attached is an accessory that helps the mouse feel more comfortable. This was a real thing.
Thanks to all the patrons who paid extra for the personalized postcards! I'm mailing them out at the beginning of March! There's still some left, so if you want another one, stick to the $15+ tier!
Please note: international patrons may receive the personal...

In addition to the iMac G3 Bondi Blue episode, I'm chipping away at a KoalaPad episode! This graphics tablet was generously donated by a viewer, and was in mint condition. I have an Apple //e I want to hook this up to. Part of the episode has been filmed, but another (mini) production day is plan...

After the Kdenlive video goes out, it's time to test drive this ol' iMac G3! I encountered many surprises while filming this episode, and I'll have more to share soon! In the meantime, enjoy some preview photos (and an ungraded still frame from the footage).

Hello again!
Enjoy another uncensored rough cut of the next Krazy Ken episode. The final cut will go public on Thursday. It'll be censored as usual, but ya'll can see it before the censoring happens (wink). Viewer discretion is advised.
Click the video player above to watch now!
BEHIND THE SCENES:
I just got back from shooting my first video editing experience on GNU/Linux. It was… cumbersome?? But some parts were delightful. I don't wanna spoil too much yet ; )
The goal was to recreate part of a Vintage Apple Vault episode inside kdenlive....

You maybe heard some word spread that I was planning something special for March 14, aka "Pi Day". It's true. I do want to do something special.

Hey guys!
So, today was one of those days where The Curse is relentless. I didn't call him out too much in this episode (because I hate pointing fingers) but dang it… he was brutal. I was planning for this to be a simple upgrade (from 7.1 to 7.6) but everything that could've gone ...

Hey everyone! I have something a little special today…
Above (and below) are concept sketches of the Krazy Ken avatar illustrations. I have never shared these with anyone. Up until now, I think a total of 2 (maybe 3 people) on the entire planet have seen them.
OKAY, I'LL EXP...

Someone was super-generous and gave me an iMac G4 with tons of goodies. I haven't poked through all the extras yet (I'm saving that for the episode) but it looks like there's manuals, CDs, and Pro Speakers!

Here's some behind the scenes shots of the latest Krazy Ken episode. Above is the setup I used to film the a-roll narration. Normally I would refer to this as a "talking head" shoot, but you don't see my head, so it's like a… "talking chest" shoot???
The green screen setup is decent, but ...

There's sooo much to share in this week's Krazy Ken episode; the main course of this episode is Apple Park / Apple Park Visitor Center. I don't have the full episode done yet, but I wanted to share one of my favorite parts of the rough cut with you first! (link below)
Enjoy
Look below for more preview pics:
This Thursday's Krazy Ken episode will share the story of my visit to Apple Park, Apple Campus, the Apple garage, and the Flint Center (where the Macintosh was first demoed to Shareholders). I'm super-excited to make this one! Here's some p...

Hey again!
So… things go NUTS in this episode. Here's a rough cut! It includes everything except the final two scenes (which need some extra work for something special). Enjoy! The final cut will be public on Friday (3 PM CST).

Dashiell, a fellow Computer Clan fan, had this KoalaPad at his old college. It's still in the shrink-wrap!

Hey guys!
So as a new perk, I'm experimenting with "extended scenes" and "deleted scenes". Krazy Ken episodes are usually 15-30 minutes long, but the footage reels are about 45-60 minutes long. Honestly, most of the excess deserves to be left on the cutting room floor, but some of i...
