Why I’m Not Emo
Posted Tuesday, March 16th, 2010 6:33 pm by Dave Moyer
I’ve been answering a ton of FormSpring questions lately – it’s been a great way to answer all of the awesome questions you guys have in one place! Recently, someone asked if I’ve “ever been emo”.
Now, if you’ve ever watched any of my videos, heard any of my shows or even have just looked at the design of this site, it’s obvious that I’m pretty much the opposite of emo. But just to prove it to you, check out this video.

Britney Spears “Gimme More” Spoof “404″ and How to Make a $3 Greenscreen

Ever been browsing the web and come across one of those annoying “404 – Page Not Found” errors? Then this video is for you. I know the vocals in this song aren’t the best, it’s just for fun. (I usually sing much better! Really! I’m just… not… Britney Spears.)
This video was actually filmed with a green screen made out of four sheets of green poster board that cost me just under $3 at my local grocery store. I taped them together with packing tape and hung them to the wall via push pin. Watch my behind the scenes video:

The Question Finally Answered: What Music Do I Listen To?
Posted Sunday, March 7th, 2010 1:39 pm by Dave Moyer
I get asked WAY too often what kind of music I listen to. And honestly, there’s really no particular genre or artist that I listen to more than others (though I do definitely have favorites, at the moment Lady Gaga, Ke$ha and MIKA). To prove that, though, here’s a little video.
For those of you who have asked how I got the sound direct from the iPod into the video, I connected it to the computer’s mic input with an aux cable. Then I recorded the audio in Audacity with software playthrough turned on so I could hear the music through the computer speakers, and later synced up what my Snowflake mic (which records audio for the video) heard with the Audacity recording. Pretty complex, but it worked!
PS. THE GUY IN THE GLASSES NEEDS A NAME! I’m fairly sure he’ll be making appearances in later videos, so he deserves a proper title! What do you think?
There is NOTHING Charming About These Bracelets!!!

You know those little metal charm bracelets with all the little decorated square thingies that all supposedly say something about you? Yeah. I HATE THEM. There is nothing charming about these bracelets, because they’re ridiculously hard to put together.
But put a million together we did (actually 89 to be exact) to prepare for a daddy-daughter ball. Fingers were pinched, but we made our TREAT SACKS. (Yeah, they’re called treat sacks!)
