More Storyboarding

Inner Filmmaker
I had a concept for a music video float into my awareness a while back and scribbled a very crude storyboard of the first few verses/scenes. After daydreaming for a few days about having the means to actually make a video I decided that the stars in my eyes were getting in the way of things that could actually be done and put the idea away.
But that roughly scrawled-upon slice of 8.5 x 11 kept turning up, finding its way out from beneath bills and other concerns. I found myself watching moving pictures superimposed upon the background of my thoughts and decided that maybe I could make an animated film.
After mulling that over for a while I promptly decided that an animated film was just as impossible as a live action film and put the idea away again. Again it would find its way back into my consciousness unabated, practically begging me for fruition. Finally, I succumbed to the calls of my inner filmmaker and decided that I would go to work on an animated music video featuring one of the songs from my recently release album Antidepressant Blues.
I hope to finish the darn thing within the next month or two and release it out into the wild via dankinsley.com and youtube. I plan to leak segments highlighting its progress via this dandy outlet.
End Transmission.

ANTIDEPRESSANT BLUES by DAN KINSLEY: FREE ONLINE ALBUM
Welcome to Dan Kinsley's online-mental-effluvia-repository. I appreciate your having navigated here and hope that your stay is both enjoyable and enriching.
I'll jump right in with an announcement:
With the help of multiple cups of coffee, a couple Beefalo Brothers, some borrowed microphones and a hand-me-down computer I've just finished recording Antidepressant Blues, my first solo record.
The project, which started as a narcissistic exercise in musical catharsis, has since gone on to become a vortex unto itself, slurping down hours and hours of my time into its greedy belly. After playing a few tracks for friends and family I decided that maybe the music didn't totally suck and decided to release it in its current form: ONLINE FOR FREE.
If you'd like to reach me, please feel free to visit one of my online homes: myspace or dankinsley.com.
So, without further adieu, please proceed to dankinsley.com to download Antidepressant Blues. While your at it, please tell your friends you found them something nice and point them there as well.
Thanks.
