I'm a little concerned that this might turn out to be fun only for me. But when it's all said and done, this whole thing is about what's fun for me, right? My time, my money, my blog. It's only fair.
OK, OK, I'll admit it, I feel guilty. I will get back to the regular suff. Soon.
Update: BTW, I'm hardly the first to create a video in There. But as far as I know, I'm the first to videoblog from it. There's also a podcast about machinima–which is what this genre of film is called.

Very cool! I'll have to check There out!
oooh man that was a riot! Great way to let off steam, jumping off a virtual cliff.
スゲ〜〜！！ That was coooool! What a surprise! I think "there" would really love your video! I am glad you posted and hope that yoor "hiroukan" will be no more! Take care.
One more thing: Did you notice the guy in beginning who slowly backed out of the shot? I think he kneew you wear trying to shoot something…haha! Funny!
Yes, he knew. The guy was a "greeter" who stands there and waits for newcomers who need help. Right before I started recording I told him what I was doing. You can't read it because the text is too small but he said, "Oh, so I guess I'm in you're shot, aren't I? Sorry…"
I just can't get the smile of my face !!
I will have i good day.
Fantastic, Rich! Very strange to see a video in your regular style, but in a virtual world, but it really worked. Jumping from the top of mountains looks fun!
The piano music had me rolling on the floor as I watched virtual Rich get pummeled. Brilliant and entertaining as always Rich, thanks for cheering up my morning!
Fantastic! That was a little creepy, but very entertaining non the less.
This is so very novel. I think it helps that we've heard your voice for about a year. This could totally be used by the company to promote the game.
I think it's more of an "inside joke" kind of thing. Someone who hasn't seen the other videos I've made wouldn't get it.
But for about two hour's worth of work, I'm happy with it. I really redefined "shitting it out" with this one. If I can get away with putting that little of effort into videos, then this entire endeavor just got a whole lot easier.
It's creepy for me too. Usually only big-time celebrities get turned into cartoon characters. Maybe by this time next year I'll have my own action figure too.
Rich this had to be the most amazing thing I have ever seen on my iPod. It was like combining a video game, a videoblog and a podcast all into one 5min+ clip with hoverboards!
Who cares about 50 casts in 50 days when you make shows like this! WOW!
I really expected people to say, "OMFG, Rich, stop being such a computer geek and get back to showing us Japan!" So far I've only received one message like that, and it was from one of my bestest friends, so it doesn't really count.
good stuff man!
OMFG, Rich, stop being such a computer geek and get back to showing us Japan!
more foxy girls please : )
and food please : )
Ach, I tried to go to there.com, but when I downloaded the program, it made my laptop sooooo sloooow. Oh well, guess I'll have to not be distracted from studying Japanese…
Come on, get back to podcasting!
btw, that's funny.
i really like your editing. the transitions were brilliant, especially the part where you flew your plane up somewhere with similar ground texture with the mountain where you jump off a cliff (i half-thought you would go "ouch!" "ouch!" "ouch!") are they in-house or do you use another standalone software to do your video editing?
Rich, I have a podcasting geek question for you.
I understand that you use your iRiver for your recordings. I'm assuming you're using the line in jack and not the built in mic (because like most built in mics, they suck) or does your iRiver have a microphone jack? What type of microphone do you have to use in order to record using the line in jack?
nevermind… dug around and answered my own question.
How freakishly cool! I was grinning and laughing watching and then made other half go watch it like "you must see how awesome this is!" He did and agreed (he had to I was like on and on and on - no seriously freaky, but ace!) Thanks for sharing that.
That's really interesting, its like SIMS but onine. There.com. Thanks for letting us know about it! \（＾o＾）/
Oh, I think that was a scream! I want a cartoon me!
Wow. Is it already podcast # 50!
Absolutely fantastic! What software did you use to record it? I'd love to try something like this but have NO idea where to start.
Rich,
Where are ye? We (my wife and I) are beginning to worry. She is from Japan and looks forward to your video casts.
Hope all is well,
–Shoki
Yeah Rich, where are you…? I miss hearing your stories and the videos…
How did everything go with the sleep study? Take care…
Rich we miss you!
I hope you didn't fall asleep driving a car dude. Or maybe your wife got so mad at you that she kicked you out. Or maybe you are sick of doing this shit anyway. Hey but listen I am dying to see new videocast. So get to work Rich.
I miss listening to ya every morning on the train! I hope you are okay. Best wishes.
hm…well I guess it's only been a couple of weeks but still… hope all is well, Rich!
I've kept quiet but am a loyal follower. I have to admit I'm quite worry. I too am an insomniac/sleep apnea victim in case you need someone who relates to chat with, or just anything. I really hope all is well with you and yours and that we hear from you soon.
abrazos muchos…
Edwin
I really due hope all is well…同情しちゃうな…
I hope you are ok Rich! Looking forward to your next podcast, as always, when you get the chance.
Best Wishes.
Maybe he's lost in 'There' (.com)!
his jacket. The effect was VERY cool. It made me wonder what this new technology was all about and how it would catch on. Well, it certainly has caught on! Richard moved on from podcasting to videocasting to playing with amazing technologies such asThere.com. He’s a gaijin salaryman in Japan so technology is definitely a hobby for him, not his bread and butter (or sushi, or whatever). Thanks again Rich! Arigato gozaimashita! You’re insperation and legacy will live long! Let us know when you
I've watched the video over and over again it is so funny. What kind of mike and video capture and editor did you use I would like to do a There movie too.
