The last couple of days I’ve been updating and redesigning Just Passing Thru Productions/Medias website. I wanted to keep the site simple, but still get across my attitude toward media. I’m definitely not a graphic designer or anything, but the site didn’t turn out to bad. I’m using WordPress to power the site. I’m using a heavily modified version of the default WordPress theme. I’ll probably be changing the site a little and tweaking it for the next couple of days, but it’s not to bad as of right now. Well thats it for this update!Ethan

Today I’m going to spend a few hours emailing people to be interviewed for YIAM. My goal is to find and email ten people today. I’ve only sent out one so far. But my hands and email account are ready. So time to stop blogging and start emailing!Ethan

Its the last week of camp here at Word of Life Ranch and TODAY IS MY DAY OFF!!! So I’ve been hanging out at a friends dorm all morning playing video games and fooling around with the new Ipod Touch Firmware (which is pretty sick). Right now were watching a skate video before we go hit up the skate park. That’s about it for now.Later!Ethan

Their is only 7 more days till I get to go home. This summer has been a great learning experience and time of spiritual growth. I’ve gotten to meet tons of new people, makes some new friends, listened to some great biblical scholars… But I am ready to go home. I can’t wait to see all my friends and family. It’ll be nice sleeping in a real bed aswell. AND I get access to my electronics and technology! Woo hoo! I think it’s been good for me to be away from home though. It’s taught me lot about how much I depend on my mom and dad to do things for me. I also think it’s helped to learn a better work ethic. I’m no longer gonna complain when my parents ask me to wash the dishes ever again. Washing 12 dishes is nothing compared to the 400-500 we wash each meal. So all in all I’ve had a great summer. Till next time!Ethan

Hello everyone! Today is Wednesday July 22. It’s a little over halfway through the summer. So far I’ve been having a great time here at WOL ranch. I work in the dishpit here in the kitchen. Basically we wash, set up, and take down all the dishes. My favorite part about working here is the skatepark. When were not working we can go ride the skatepark.

I just got back from filming a mountain bike race. Unfortunatly it poured rain so I didn’t get to go out and walk the trail like I wanted to. But I still got some cool finishing shots and I got to hang out with my friends. I’ll post a link to my video after I finish editing it. Well, good night all!

Today I cleaned my room (which is also my studio) and rearranged some things. I set up my Shure SM58 so I could have a guest in studio and configured a mirror so I could see them while recording. Well that’s it for now. Later!

Here’s a shot of my audio studio. My mic is an Audio Technica AT2020. My mixer is a Behringer UB1202. The mixer is run to my Behringer U-link. Then the U-link is run to my laptop. I’m hoping to get another laptop next year and use my current one as the audio capturer and the new one as my browsing laptop. That way my browsing doesn’t slow down the recording or anything.

(I was listening to TWiT. This was before I got my iPod Touch, so I had to listen to all my favorite podcasts on my laptop.)I backup all my audio, video, and important documents on my 320 gig Western Digital Mybook.
