Dev Jam Labs…my side project

today update is about a side project i been involved with for a few years now. one of my titles in my day job is animation consultant/producer, this means i help create digital content. i have been involved with a project called “The Adventures of Mic & Sim”. i am co-writer/director/producer/animator. it’s a very small group of motivated talented men located in long island NY. we are trying to establish a community of like minded individuals.

the images below are from our website which we launched recently, we have a production blog and update once a week. the project is wrapping up its pre-production stage and will be entering full on production within the coming months. we are working with mainly open source softwares, we love the open source community and will be using Blender 3D for the majority of our production.

have a look at the site! we at Dev-Jam Labs appreciate it!

Tracking my progress

today’s update is about productivity. i’m a big fan of metrics and writing things down. since 2019 i have been keeping count of my productivity on this beautiful planner from Muji. my goal is consistence, daily progress, 30minutes or 3hours, doesn’t matter. progress is slow and it’s all about building the habit.

my goal is to create art or more specifically to work on my animated short FRANK. every night before bed i journal in my planner and add a Yes or No depending on if i worked on my project. i don’t beat myself up for missing days, i simply try not to miss to many in a row. in the end as long as i have more positive months then negative months i’m happy

this pic from 2019 shows a great strong start but in March my bday month my productivity drops due to my celebration of my bday.

this year i started strong as i usually do, but then in march my productivity dropped, due to my bday month. i took a weekend trip to a cabin in rome ny. and i went on a few dates…so my routine was not normal
