Zacuto's Featured Columnist

Today marks the official day that I became a published writer! Having never gone to school for journalism or writing (except screen writing, but that was factored into my BS of Film & Television degree), I can say that I’m a professional writer…Well, probably not really that professional. I don’t see myself winning a Pulitzer Prize in the near future, but the fact that Zacuto has given me this opportunity is truly amazing and one that I am grateful for. So thank you Zacuto! 

That all said, if you haven’t read my column and are interested, click this link http://www.zacuto.com/tech-filmmakers-brian-troy#more-10860 and take a gander. 

Thanks for reading.

The MyFixitUpLife Extreme Playset Edition

Hey everyone! 

It has been quite busy around here. Between getting married, filming, and editing, life doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon (I’m not complaining at all). The week before I was about to get married, Mark & Theresa Clement, the duo behind MyFixitUpLife had contacted me to document the building of their extreme playset. They had held a competition on their radio show for one lucky winner to receive this ultimate playset and wanted to show their fans how they built this beast from the ground up. It was a long and hot filming process. The humidity was high and I’m pretty sure that I lost a good amount of weight. However, a great time was had by all and the final outcome is really impressive. 

Below is a link to the three part series along with a trailer (or the cliff notes of how this playset was built). If you’re into home improvement or DIY jobs, then this is something for you. 

Gear Specs:

If you have any questions send them my way. I hope you enjoy them.

Hello, Future Competition

Hey All, 

Well, Vimeo released their Top 10 finalists for the Hello, Future competition. Sadly my music video, Be The One did not make it in. As disappointing as it sounds, I had a load of fun making this video and have no plans on stopping from making more stop-motion animation films. If you haven’t seen it yet, check it out and let me know what you think. I have a load of ideas waiting to get out of my head and soon I’ll be embarking on a new project. 

Talk to you soon.
