Rocketship Promo

Nick Santos recently uploaded a sweet kickstarter promo for his next short "Rocketship." I'm really excited to do the post sound for this and was able to get a jumpstart on the backgrounds by working on the promo. Watch, listen, and donate here!

Back From Vacation!

I'm back from my travels in the Midwest! It was a good time.

While I was gone my friend Nick Santos released this music video by the band CommonWealth that I did the sound effects for!

New Magnets Have Arrived!

Jessee and I (mostly Jessee) have been working on a bunch of new magnets. As of right now we have released three and will likely come out with one more before July when Jessee goes to three weeks of camp and I travel to the Midwest.

Here are the links!

"Lord and Lady Bug During Their Most Private Moment"

"You Can Be Happy"

"Handle Your S***"

Be sure and read the descriptions. They're weird.

New Magnets on the Horizon

Jessee came up with this really great idea for magnets. Pressed plants! She's still perfecting the process but expect one of a kind pressed flower magnets in our Etsy shop in the near future!

Magnets!

Here's some cool magnets we recently made for The Found. Go to our website if you want high quality magnets like these!

I've done it!

Here's my new sound reel. It doesn't have all of the clips in it that I wanted but I'll cram them into the next one. Let me know what you think!

You can also check out my new website at www.jordaneusebio.com . I usually update what I'm working on in the "Sound Blog" section.

Paul the Praying Mantis

I was a couple of weeks off about the new magnets but they are on our Etsy site now! One is of a sneezing duck and the other is of a praying mantis. I entertained myself by writing the descriptions for the magnets. I think they explain more about my brain than the magnets.

"Things I Don't Remember" has also been accepted to the Boston International film festival as well as the Indie Spirit film festival. Check it out if you happen to be attending either of them. Then let me know what you think. But when you do that, try and place the mean comments in between two nice comments. For example, "I liked it! It was kind of loud at points but I liked it!"

Robot House Party!

Jessee and I have been spending a lot of time on improving, expanding, and legitimizing Robot House Party. You can now follow us on Twitter, like us on Facebook, and we'll soon have a website.

Check our etsy site this week for new magnet designs!

Things I Don't Remember

A couple of months ago I met this dude Nick on the set of Welcoming Departure. He and I got really drunk on my birthday and I agreed to sound design a short film he was finishing up. Four and a half months later, Boooyaa.

That's a link to the trailer (Also embedded below). Here's a link to the imdb.

I also just realized how apt the title is because I couldn't remember it the morning after I agreed to work on it.

Nature

I learned something about nature yesterday.

Branches from fig trees are extremely springy. Be careful when handling them. I was unfamiliar with them and their characteristics. My advice to those dealing with them for the first time is that they will act in a surprising way and will strike you in the testicles at their first opportunity.
