When I started Radiskull and Devil Doll, everyone was on dial-up modems! I had to be very careful to compress everything, keep window sizes small, frames rates way down, limit the quality of audio and everything else. Today in our Sci-Fi reality, high-definition audio and video flow through the world like a raging river! Now I can really let loose with fog, smoke, lights, shadows, camera work and more. And best of all, the audio is pristine. I hope you view on a nice big monitor, and listen on good speakers!<\/p>\n

To commemorate the 2018 return of Radiskull & Devil Doll in “Coffee with Friends,” this:<\/p>\n

For most of my life, I\u2019ve been told coffee was bad for me. I never believed it. Not for a minute! Turns out I was right, and we now know coffee is one of the healthiest things you can drink. It is rich in antioxidants. It is delicious.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"It makes friends more friendly. You should have some coffee with friends every day!<\/p>\n

I started drinking coffee when I was 4 years old. My next-door neighbor made it for me, and we would sit on her front lawn in lawn chairs and sip coffee. I loved it. I also loved coffee candy and coffee ice cream as a kid.<\/p>\n

I encourage you to give your children coffee as early as possible and as much as they can drink. And maybe, just maybe, your kids might turn out like (see video<\/a> for more info)<\/p>\n

After the music video plays I engage in a little bit of story-telling and horseplay:\"\"Some parts I create with Adobe Animate CC (formally known as Flash). I export layers of high-resolution vector animation as alpha-channel video, and bring it in into Adobe After Effects. After Effects has a beautiful 3D camera system. I\u2019ve been animating the camera to the beat of the music and it brings the scenes to life in a unique way.\"\"<\/p>\n

Thanks again for watching, sharing, subscribing, and leaving comments. Thank you for being here. With you in the audience I will be able make more music videos. I want to create musical art that stands the test of time.<\/p>\n

Thanks again, and “be excellent to each other!”<\/p>\n
