I do hope you're not quite as glum as it seemed though... My similar mood hits right after Christmas. The Christmas holiday itself, with all its prep and joy, gets me through most of December, but then I'm heavily into introspection and regrets into the New Year, as I cover up last year's flowers, as you say. It can also be an exciting "new start" time of year, but always preceded by the more glum recap. So in short, I know how you feel! Wow, what a video! I do hope you’re not quite as glum as it seemed though…

This really felt like an authentic glimpse inside the Brogan machinery. I used to become a grumpy bastard when it got cold in New York. That lifted completely moving to California -- my winter dread is gone. With regards to 2006 in the online video world, it's been a ramp-up year for a lot of us, I think. The hype is building, and I think 2007 will see money flow into this world and by the end of '07 we'll see a shake-out of shows and creators who can't hang in there long enough to find a way to make it work. Many of these creators will have very legitimate reasons for giving up or shifting focus, I should add. Not a lack of fortitude or anything. But of course along with the inevitable shake-out, we will probably see an even greater influx of new shows, as well. Chris, for what it’s worth, you make outstanding videos when you’re feeling blue.

Are you picking your music first and wrapping a video around it, or the other way 'round?
