ROFLCon and other news…

Posted by Jason Steele | Thursday 6 May 2010 2:42 pm

Sorry for not posting this sooner, but my air conditioner is broken and it’s 90º in my house.  So naturally I haven’t been doing much these last few days besides plotting the death of the sun.

ROFLCon was very interesting and also very weird.  One of the highlights for me was meeting Rob Cockerham of Cockeyed.com, a site I’ve been reading since the late 90s.  Rob was incredibly cool and it was very surreal to meet him in person after having followed his internet shenanigans since high school.  I briefly shook hands with Neil Cicierega of Lemon Demon (and countless other projects), who is almost certainly the most talented guy doing web content right now.  I also hung out with Dan Walsh of Garfield Minus Garfield fame, who was awesome and I highly recommend following his Tumblr.  I also had the incredible fortune of hanging out with Joel Veitch of Rathergood.com, who’s been making awesome internet stuff since before awesome internet stuff existed.  I also got to hang out with Ed Snow who does music for the Rathergood videos, and Ed Robinson and Matt Smith of the incredible Viral Factory, which has made so many great viral ads over the last decade.

There were dozens of other hilarious people I met at the conference (Charlie Schmidt is the King of the Internet) and there were some pretty interesting panels held, so it was a good time overall.  The video for the panels, including the one I was on, will hopefully be online in the next week or so.

Anyway, it’s very hot right now so work is progressing slowly for the next FilmCow short, but I am CHUGGING ALONG.  I’ll keep you updated.  In the meantime, check out this interview I did with OneMetal.com!

    Woooooohaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! The question is – is it possible to make Cocky The Dog?

    Sucks that your A/C broke.

    No need for A/C in Ireland though, we’re lucky to get 20 degrees during the summer.

    Lemon Demon? As In “Old Godzilla was hoppin’ around Tokyo sitting like a big playground, when suddenly Batman Burst from the Shade, and hit Godzilla with a batgrenade”?

    That’s about 32c am I correct? In Australia that’s perfect weather, I would kill to have weather like that all year. Any update on Spatula Madness?

    (PS: I love you)

    Still plotting the death of the sun? Charlie 4 isn’t going to post itself.

    Is it fixed yet?

  22. Comment by Ehrgloshmahneekahbglah — May 20, 2010 @ 7:29 pm

    Everybody, calm down, for all we know he’s been dead of heatstroke for a week and a half with no one to know what happened, his body slowly decaying as he thinks from heaven, “Man, I should have fixed that air conditioner”.

    i know this is off topic but you need to make a cloak 2

  25. Comment by someone... — May 22, 2010 @ 5:51 am

    The Cloak was the best. I can’t believe he hasn’t made a sequel to it yet.

    “Everybody, calm down, for all we know he’s been dead of heatstroke for a week and a half with no one to know what happened, his body slowly decaying as he thinks from heaven, “Man, I should have fixed that air conditioner”.”

    hey jason, whats with the all tose crappy adds? “Take this squizz and get a prize!” Its shitty

  28. Comment by draleorn — May 24, 2010 @ 4:38 pm

    oops… i spelled a lot of words wrong….. just cope with it….

  29. Comment by BURGERMAN — May 25, 2010 @ 4:51 am

    Here is what I think…… Spatula Madness hasn’t gotten past the title sequence and never will, A serious business meeting never actually existed, Charlie four is currently at the stage of “I should probs make annother one somethime” and Jason has recently died while secretly making the intro to The Cloak 2 which gave him a heart attach from sheer awesome. Sad but true.

  30. Comment by Snurgle — May 25, 2010 @ 2:34 pm

    Play the theme again. Perhaps the awesome will ressurect him so he can make us more vids. And in response to both max and someone, I agree, The Cloak kicks some serious, hardcore @$$ :)
    ——————————————————————-
    And on an entirly seperate note i deliver this message: give me a movie or i’ll cry. do you want that on your concience Jason, do you?!?
