Nothing specific or grand to report today so much as I can provide the few of you reading this with a preview of things to come.
The songs that have final vocals have been uploaded to Jesse's server so he can do mixing in Baton Rouge during the week. He's got tears on the pavement to almost where I want it... I'm not sure where it stands in his mind, but I usually have to assume that if he sends me a mix, he's happy with it. The Ballad of Two Friends of Mine is still not there yet and I don't believe he's worked on anything else, but we'll get there.
So anyway:
A long (long time ago in a galaxy far away) time ago Jesse and I took some photo's for a Cowboys of Porridge album which at that point was still just a joke between us and Don. Then we did some photo shop magic to make the album cover.
Well in my Educational Technologies class this semester, one of my assignments was to create a tutorial on how to do something. I was thinking about doing a StudioONE tutorial on how to do the assignment that I still have to do for "Cluster C" which is all about sound editing, but the FirePod has unsynced itself with my laptop and I'm, darn it to hell, just to lazy to reboot at the moment. So I made a quick tutorial on how we made the Ridin' Steam album cover. I made sure to have a Cowboys of Porridge song playing in the background so people could get a preview of what the albums going to sound like, that is to say, this is what it would sound like if you were hearing it over the phone.
Creating the CoP - R.S. Album Cover
So there is the link to the tutorial on how we basically made the album cover. It's missing final tweaks to make the final image a duplicate of what's below but the filters are essentially the same. There is a snippet of Dead Man's Curve playing in the background. Not an exciting update I suppose but it's all I have to report for now. Hope you enjoy!
