This video was created with stop motion photos, and a little trick in photo shop to create the miniature effect. Over 35,000 stills were used. This is also how one of the new Allstate insurance commercial's were shot. Enjoy

I have noticed that this year is so far not the year for great music. I hope this changes other wise you are going to see a lot of past jams (see above selection) on this blog for the '2010 Jamm'n with Gawdun' playlist. Also on a side note I think this is my rap year. I have already down loaded plenty of rap songs. BUT ANYWAYS...

(I have A LOT to catch you up on)

February 6th was my mothers birthday so my brother and I made reservations to take mom out and eat ribs at Ruby Tuesday. (I had a coupon and in celebration of my mom we used it as she loves a deal of money spending.) Mother informed us that in all her years of life she has never had someone make reservations for her so she loved it even more. We all ate sooo much that I wanted to unbutton my pants and lean back but it was a public area so I saved the town of St George form my unbuttoned-ness. Mom also needed new pots and pans so Lucas and I purchased a new set for her which as of today the 18th of February she finally un-boxed and used :-) After dinner mom wanted to go see the movie 'Dear John.' Even though I was much against the personal viewing of this movie I buckled down and went with mother and brother.

I HAD THE MOST EXCITING THING HAPPEN DURING THE MOVIE!!!!

So there we are about 20 minutes into the movie and this girl directly in front of me get's on her phone to text for the 3rd time. Let say this, yes I didn't really want to see the movie in the first place but I, Andrew Gawdun movie viewer, paid big bucks for myself, brother and mother to see this movie so you best not interrupt that! So there we are in the dark crowded theater. I leaned forward and ever so politely said, and I quote..."Hey why don't you put your cell phone away so we can watch the movie?" She turned around and glared at me but I sat there and gave her my stink eye. Needless to say she turned back around. However maybe 5 minutes later she turns back around, I was ready for it. She says... "Did you tell me to put my phone away?" I looked at her with the eyes of passion for my cause and said... "Yes." The only thing she could end with was, "why don't you go to F*&%^% Hell?!" Then she tossed her self back in her seat and began to use sign language with her friend, all of which was probably hate'n on me and not digg'n on me (click that link you'll love it!). I only wish I had stuck with my sign language learning because I would have understood her. However later on as I retold this story to a friend they told me I should have just leaned forward and said... "THAT IS NOT VERY NICE" Bwahaha. Anyways another 20 minutes goes by and she get's up and leaves the theater but not without stopping to talk with someone she knew on the back of the bottom row. LAME.

Now as for the movie itself. (SPOILER ALERT********!!!!) YOU GIRLS DO PLAY GAMES and see I have yet another fact of evidence to prove it. Not just personal experience of mine but other people's thinking and creating. (MORE SPOILER*****!!!!!!!) Why not just call the guy and end it or write him an email?

Man-Alive I learned some exciting things tonight and the other day that I must share.

*Warning I am a nerd and you will probably roll your eyes while you read this. Consider yourself warned and now you can get over it.

First Off: The other day I was catching up on my tweets as I had not a chance to get on Twitter or Swift to do some reading. I was scrolling through the tweets when I caught one about the cast of Jersey Shore. They have signed on to do a 2nd season! Color me rockin excited! Let me be honest and level with you. IT IS A TRAIN WREAK OF A SHOW...BUT...I LOVE IT! I mean seriously who doesn't want to see what Snooki has to say or do next. Then you have The Situation. But hold up look at them names! That is all I'm gonna say about that. Here is one of the funniest SNL skit I have seen this year about Jersey Shore...

"BACK ABS!" Bwahahahahha

Reason Deux: I was doing some reading on abcnews.com and discovered that once again my my mind will be blown this year. Yeah that is right EVE will be releasing a new album this year!!! It's about dang time! That's all I can say. I remember being introduced into EVE as a freshman in high school. Yes it is true I had a crush on her, hey still think she is a fox. She is talent! Oh and lets not forget that she is the Ruff Ryders First Lady of Rap

While I'm at it what happened to all them classy rappers? Da Brat, Kris Kross? I mean now we got a life without Biggie. At least today's rappers aren't shooting each other and faking their own deaths in order to release a new CD every year. Yeah I'm talking about you TuPac!

My basic portfolio is up and online finally. It's nothing fancy but I'm always working on it.

ARG IMAG Photography

I'm also debating if I should change my ARG IMAG blog from blogspot hosting to wordpress hosting. Anyone have info on Wordpress let me know. It just looks sharp and cleaner for a business blog.

After 10 years I will be going to see my Grandma Gawdun. Here is where I brag that I am only 2nd generation American as my father was born here after Gawdun Grandparents emigrated here once they got away from Hitler and his work camps (true story). I am hoping finally she will tell some stories of her life and yes I will be using all my technology at hand to record it. I have practiced using my iSight on my Macbook to record video and hiding the video screen behind other windows. Along with the voice recorder on my phone. Once again the NERD come hither.

Ok I'm done...
