This is a claw machine tutorial. If you've ever tried to win something from one of those pesky arcade skill cranes, then you might possibly find this claw machine tutorial helpful. A sequel to this video is also available here: http://youtube.com/w atch?v=-vmsINVpQfc
A sequel to Skill Crane 101, this video offers some tips and tricks of Lucky Crane, one of the earlier versions of the modern skill cranes / claw machines, which are still in use at some arcades around the world. First installment of this series can be found here: http://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=73a0BQbXQ cM
With a nod to Jon Lajoie, one of my favorite comedians on YouTube, this song is dedicated to all the FAIL that is out there today. I know that I'm not nearly as funny, but hopefully it's at least worth a chuckle or two. Comments are always appreciated. If you enjoyed it, don't forget to subscribe, so that I can tell if anyone is interested in my work ;)
In this 3rd installment of my skill crane tutorials, I demonstrate a couple of attempts at a Walmart claw machine and offer a tip that might help you win some prizes (and a blooper right in the middle!)

Written in 1999, this song represents my view of relationships. I haven't published it previously and have no plans to include it in future albums, so I added accompaniment track made this video in 2005, since I didn't want it to go to waste :) Featuring the awesome Takamine EF341SC acoustic-electric guitar, with some minor effects added with Zoom 504II acoustic guitar effects processor.
Here's a quick sample tune I created with my new Takamine EG341C acoustic-electric guitar, using some layering and a DigiTech RP50 modeling processor for some mild effects.
If you're a fan of Smallville, you'll recognize that this video makes fun of Lana's obsession with "secrets and lies" (sung with an intentional lisp, since the topic is from girl's perspective :) I wrote and performed the song in this clip, and the video footage was put together / edited by my wife.
DISCLAIMER - This is supposed to be funny. If you don't have a sense of humor - don't watch! Parody of Michael Jackson's "Bad". Not really a 'brand new car', as I claim in the song. It's a 2000 Grand Prix GTP with well over 90,000 miles. Looks decent enough to pass as new for the video purposes :)
This song, written in 2006, is about the uncertain future, which I'm sure most of us often wonder about. The video shows a couple of different instruments and how they were used in the song's creation.

A short animated clip that I came up with based on a very old comic strip. Using "The Movies" PC game, I put some scenes together to show what happens when a guy hangs up on his girlfriend after a long conversation (in which the girlfriend is obviously quite unhappy). You won't be rolling on the floor, but I hope you will find it at least somewhat humorous.
A silly song I wrote about iPods. Pardon the accent - just being a dork. The melody sounded a bit Mexican, and I decided to go all out, so to say. No disrespect intended, of course.
