Excellent work Chris!
My only advice is sometimes people start this with a lot of enthusiasm and spare but eventually burn out.
If you can produce something every 2 – 4 weeks and keep it up, you should be able to fit it into what will become a busy life ;)
I've been following Chris on YouTube for a while. He will keep this level up. It's just what he does.
Good on ya, Chris!
sounds lovely!!!!
when is it going to be out, and where??? here at blender nation??
Heck Yes!
I gotta start doing vids….
Excellent idea! can't wait for the first show!
Cool :)
Congrats man.
"Its better to have a script and just not follow it, then to not have a script…"
I think I like this guy already. Good luck.
Seablade
I think chris will be excellent for this job. As for how it turns out, we'll just have to see.
Wow!! That's very great!
Can't wait to watch the first show!
Haha! Chris, you're so awesome. I loved the lines about "sleeping and eating Blender," etc.
Great to have Chris as a dedicated member of the team!
//Mathias
All I can say is 'COOL'. He could be Alton Brown of BlenderNation! ;-)
Oh my GOD! im SO there if Chris gets a background!
nice job – looking forward to it :)
We're behind you from the UK camp…. well….. the Midlands camp…… well actually….. Leicester…… ok ok!!! so I don't know any Blender artists here in the UK yet. there there, I just don't know them yet……… they good at hiding from me and my stun gun……. But if I did know any…. they'd be behind you on this….. as are my own imaginary friends.
OK OK!!!! so I lied! I don't have any imaginary friends as the one I had fell out with me and ran away……
But anyway! Keep going! I'm all behind you on this….. well not actually behind you….. or you'd see me on the video….. but….. what? ….. eh? Oh right….. sorry……. good luck man!!! :)
hahaha this is great. I can picture him and the Durlan team just having a blast. I think it'll be a great idea for him to document the next's open movie project so that the team can have more time and not worry about keeping the community up to date with what's going on, plus it should be a new refreshing attitude.
Yay!
*has mental image of Chris meeting Nathan*
Anyway, good luck with the endeavour!
this is what seperates blender from other 3d apps…
3d is so serious it's such a breath of fresh air having someone making spoof videos of things like aprox ambient occlusion etc
simply awesome!
A great addition to the site, In fact, I'd go further and ask Chris be Blender's version of the Paperclip help feature in Word!
Very funyyy. :-D
BTW is this going to really happen? If true then its really great. Hey Chris u r reading this, don't u? ;-)
Whoa. Imagine a little floating Chris head in the corner that says "Type in a keyword to find a blog video to suit your needs."
@Kadour: yes, the episodes will be posted right here.
@AppleGrew: absolutely! We're serious about it. The only thing we're not sure about yet is the frequency – this is all up to Chris.
Really happy to see Chris back!
So much great stuff lately.. really exciting seeing Chris here. a behind the scenes on Chris' videos will be great too :)
I could not have thought of a better guy for the job :)
some day ill turn the radio on…
..this is 99.7 blenderFM and iam chris stone presenting the newest latetst … .:)
Hey, this guy's awesome! :-D keep up the good work!
Well, Blender is a software, a creation suite or what?
I can understand, hardly but i can :), you have some fun with that, but honestly the buzz, the trend around
Blender is boring and becoming simply stupid.
Use Blender for art/creation/simulation/education and not to promote your "stand-up" ability and by the way, do something else, the life is short :).
Cool :D
I'm already curious :D
@Dusty: Well… (At least) One of the fist posters on this article comes from UK ;)
*sigh* This guy thinks he's funnier than he really is…
nice ! That is really COEL ! I love this Project ^^.
Nice, it'll be cool seeing more vids from you. Get a huge blender logo sticker and put it on your wall or something.
This is gonna be great! Chris has a wonderful fun way of presenting! I am sooooooooooooooooooo excited to hear of this news! Its almost like a Blender Update ;-) Oh this is is exciting! Congratulations Chris.
Yeah, I'm stoked. Good production quality!
Man, he tries way too hard to be funny. Personally I think Pauly Shore would be more entertaining to watch, and I hate Pauly Shore…
Chris, your presentation style is great. I'm looking forward to the next installment!
He's like the Blender version of Bill Nye The Science Guy.
Felicitations on everything.
Cool!…
@Dusty:
Heck, you remind me of somebody I know! :) Was in stitches! xD
~epat. :)
Sounds like a great idea. And being blender-specific, makes blender stand out that much more.
But, Chris, don't shirk your building duties…nudge, nudge.
Awesome! :-) Thank you Chris. It's a breath of fresh air to see folks willing to take a shot, willing to take a risk – a trait *required* of artists I've believed for some time. I wish I could be like that more often than I am. Your humor is wonderful – Blenda Naaaaaay-shun! I look forward to viewing more of your work. Thanks again, from a grateful Blender community member!
Sorry – I don't understand this post… Am I the only one?? :)
I think I have the same toothbrush as you…:\
Go Chris! I have always liked your work. I am looking forward to the next installment.
kewl, now get a lovely chick as side kick.
Ah, my favorite past time. Replying to comments on blendernation with little @ symbols.
@campbell barton
Ah, yes. Frequency. Did you know that I once did a movie everyday for 74 straight days? … That's not going to happen again because I wound up with 60 fairly low quality movies.
@Dave Collison
There were problematic social happenings that prevented me from posting for an entire year. But that's over.
@Thomas Vecchione
I like to go off script.. a lot. But having a script vastly improves efficiency.
@BlendRoid
The full version had Blender-O's but that was slashed out of the project early on.
@Paul
YES! I'm glad someone got it. I was inspired by Alton Brown even more than Bill Nye.
@Claws
If I don't have a background I'll have to appear in a void.
@wayne
"spoof videos" ? I don't understand.
@TheChief
The paper clip of blender? Now, that's some scary territory. ;)
@AppleGrew
Really happen? I sure hope so. I didn't just post the UI to my bathroom mirror for nothing. Which is still there by the way.
@shul
The Scripts section of Chris World should help with that.
@dave62
Whoa there there's an s on the end of my last name ;)
Chris Stones
@nadaklan
Since I somehow managed to stumble into an audience I now have extra incentive to make 'good' videos.
@LL
Blender update? I don't think I'm written in C though.
@innactpro
:D
@inazuma
The PPC binaries must live!
@ysvry
Sadly, on the web I am at a disadvantage because I'm a guy.
Nothing to say but good luck Chris!
I know I'll be watching – some of us need all the help we can get! (-<)
hrmm sry but why should I look at this guy talking about himself? If he makes good tutorials, then it's ok and everybody can thank him for that, but until now it's an egocentrics diary. hmm I'm so cool look at me. Sorry if this sounds rood, it's actually meant quite friendly.
Cheers mate!
It's great to see the community 'evolve' in such ways and i really agree with what you said, it's good to see some friendly faces around, not just text (or voices).
I will follow along shortly with real production movies (tutorials or timelapses).
LOL! Chris definitely brought out a smile on my face! :)
To you naysayers negative-nannies out there I´ve got something to say to you:
1) It takes guts to put yourself up for grabs like that.
2) It´s EXTREMELY hard to be a "TV-Face", what would you say?
3) He´s like that – uncensored, not trying to put on a face, maybe he´s
trying to be funny – and he actually makes me laugh and smile TWICE during
that short, and believe me – thats HARD…I don´t laugh around that easily, so
what can I say, the guy´s got SPUNK…he may need some polishing…
…but trust me – IT WILL COME!
Let him do his stuff!
Chris – Welcome aboard, it will be a lot of fun to have you around, and I´ll
watch along with a lot of other users when you do your Blender stuff!
Cheers,
JoOngle
Let's get Chris a backdrop from Elephant's Dream! They've got to have some posters left around somewhere. They can't have put them all up in the Blender Institute. Hmm, maybe he'd look better with a Peach backdrop!
Congrats and good news,
Chris make a real good job, I like his way to present video, fun and clear. Even with my french knowledge of english I understand each world. It's important for me.
Nice movie, Chris! Don't pay too much attention to the negative replies, they are probably just jealous.
@dusty – Man I thought I was wacked, gotta love your world, oh yes, my imagenary friend left me aswell, claimed I was paying more attention to frog licking. And similar to the UK, I just cant find any Blenderers here in SA. MMM, chockolate…
Chris you're not by any chance a Bam Margera fan are you? :)
Looking forward to checking future vids from you!
@CrazyJack: There's is a couple of us in SA, just search for the Blenderama group on Facebook :)
JoOngle: Take a look at youtube, you'll see that's very common.
You don't need "guts" to be ridiculous.
We don't care about your teenager-life, you cooliness, or whatever. Don't use the "Blender buzz" to
promote your idiocy.
Damn, what's the next step? A jackass band using blender to burn their computer?
Your crazy. But i like you.
Oh c'mon Omar just piss-off please.
@Omar: while admittedly, such use of blender would have pissed me 2, I have seen other works Chris has done and that is not the case; maybe its because he introduces himself here or something , but trust Chris, the next webisodes will be about blender (erm.. sortof?)
Geez…
@Omar: You're right, life is short…too short to spend telling other people what to do because YOU happen to dislike or disagree with something. I happened to like the video a lot, and suggesting someone would use Blender as a vehicle for supporting their own comedy makes me worry slightly about what a removed perspective you have from something as simple as posting an online video.
I clearly missed out on the pop-culture phenomenon that linked humorous presentations on 3D applications with vast mainstream success. Maybe now that Chris has Blender behind him he'll finally topple lonelygirl15 off her lofty perch, that arrogant bitch! And then, who knows, but I think Will Ferrell should be looking out. And to think, without Blender's immense influence on the universe as a whole, NOBODY would find this kid funny. It's a good thing we have you, Omar, to point out how frivolous we are.
Being funny, presentable and likeable on the screen IS difficult, whatever you may think, and people who make their living doing it get their fair share of haters, so I guess I should expect a couple on a blog like this and just ignore it, but man, what inane criticisms.
It's not like he's just signed a contract with a broadcasting company; lighten up ;)
In any case, I don't find the buzz around Blender 'boring' or 'stupid'. Pointless trolling by negative people, on the other hand, I most definitely do.
Hey Chris!
Congrats on the Blendernation TV channel! This is just what we needed. (ignore the bad press…. don't they know that critics give bad reviews, not bad previews!).
Funny thing is, when I saw your last video, I thought "this guy should have his own program!" and now it's true.
Look forward to your wise ramblings…….
There's nothing wrong with a little light-hearted presentation.
LOL! This is hilarious! I like your style Chris Stones. You're funny and you keep it
quick and simple. This gave me a good little laugh in my heart. Keep it up man.
You're awesome.
If I can watch a funny video that teaches a little about Blender each time, I will.
Perhaps a warning next to every video link so that Omar will know not to watch it.
Good Luck Chris!
YES! AWESOME! I hadn't seen any of Chris' videos before this post. I went on his blog and just checked out tons of them. GREAT! He has a very unique sense of humor and presents stuff in an exciting way, I'm checking this site constantly to see when he'll get more vids out.
Yeah!
Are there any ideas of a name for the show?
keep it up.
Rock on!
