PhotoShop Tech Video/American Idol Hell Month
17 years ago
Would anyone be interested in buying a video documenting some of my Photoshop techniques? It's a quick 10 minute video showing
~* Realistic Eyes *~
~* Fur Techniques *~
I set up a paypal account ( SirenShriek[at]aim.com ) and am asking 5$ for the video.
I plan on making several PS videos, this is the first in the collection.
If you're interested, PM me and I'll send the video!
Alright, I've decided that - no matter how I look right now, I can't pass up the chance to audition again. Especially since I passed the first round last year. Especially since I passed the first round of Nashville Star this year.
So I have a few things I need to do before I can audition on July 21st (the day before my deceased mum's birthday, oddly enough!) The audition is coming to Louisville, KY, so I don't even have to make a 500 mile trip this time. I just woke my hubby up gasping when I got the audition info.
So, on top of everything else, here's the plan -
At least 3 hours of practice a day. Gotta get the chops back into shape, right?
I need to make a partial denture. Realistically, there's no way in HELL I can come up with 500$ by next month. I'm not gonna roll over and take it, I'm an artist, dammit. I can come up with something. I'm thinking about making a mold from my hubby's teeth and reshaping them to fit my mouth. A little denture adhesive and model car paint and voila! It's farfetched, but desperate times call for desperate measures. ANY ideas for this are appreciated.
NO more soda. Period. I've weaned myself off of caffeine mostly already. I DON'T need the extra sugar content.
Going either vegetarian for a month, or low-carb. Dunno about going low-carb again, given my energy issues right now.
Gotta get a new dress and a VERY binding girdle or corset. And those gel bra inserts...The girls are kinda saggy these days.
Nails done, hair done...Most of these things I can do myself. I need to acquire new make-up, wont be too hard.
For the night before, I probably wont camp out onsite this year. Oh, God, last year that was fun! Woodstock for karaoke, about 200 people getting drunk & high with the cops right across the street. I smoked out of a bong with a safety officer, now that's a claim to fame. But last year, I was alone down in Atlanta. I took a bath in the Chattahoochie river the day before the audition. Ah, lovely transient lifestyle...But I wasn't going to let something as small as being homeless and living in my car stop me for taking a chance on life. It paid off, I got to be on the show for a round and make fun of my ex-husband on national television to boot!
I was also on Fox news in Atlanta, as well as on camera for SEVERAL other newscasts. I was on the TV guide channel in the background. Seriosuly.
I'm doing free song requests. Basically, if they have it on SingSnap or Ksolo I'll sing it and post it here. that's the best way to diversify. just post any requests here, and I'll add it to the list.
This is going to be a hectic month. Good thing I can practice and do commissions at the same time :)

REQUESTS & Random Songs:
Hurt - http://ksolo.myspace.com/actions/sh.....mp;uid=2018710
Foolish Beat - Hahaha, My high note actually shorted out the mic for a second. I love playing with vocal frequencies... http://ksolo.myspace.com/actions/sh.....mp;uid=2018710

low carb? I have no idea how that's supposed to work at all... better go vegetarian, I think it's healthier. and in some cases, cheaper...
They make a removable cosmetic product which covers your upper teeth. And costs around $50. The drawback is, they recommend against eating in them. They show before and after pictures, and give instructions on how to fit the device for missing teeth.
You seriously just saved my @$$ with this link, and again I'm greatly indebted. These are perfect for me! Exactly what I need!
I'm not too worried about eating with them, I can take them out and chew on my back teeth (I'm used to that now, anyway! I just needed something to give me the appearance of having teeth, for when I go out.
I can't thank you enough for this!
When you get your fur and eyes video tutorial done, please let me know and I'll PP you $5.
