Order Figures Inaction 8x10 Photo Prints!

As I'm preparing myself for offering Figures Inaction merchandise at future conventions, I've prepared the layouts for 8x10 prints of Figures Inaction entries. Since they're now available to me, I'm also making them available to you online as well! Head over to the Figures Inaction page and check the right-hand side for more details on ordering.

Instagram? Maybe....

So after a couple of years of having an Instagram account, I finally started actually using it for posting the latest Figures Inaction entries from the last two weeks. It is somewhat of a pain, however, since I have to basically build every post from scratch instead of just sharing straight from the FDP website like I can with Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. Not only that, but I can't do it from my computer and have to build each post on my tablet or phone instead. Although I have a similar issue with periodic posting on Imgur, it's a bit easier there since it can be accomplished on a PC. I get that a lot of people use Instagram, but damn, it's not very user-friendly to PC users. We'll see how long I stay with it.

Flamecast #055: A 20/20 Review

New masks and other changes at Redbubble.com

The Flaming Death Stockroom now has fitted 3-layer masks! Each of the three designs are available in this type, and you can find them under the main mask category for each design. I also did a bit of trimming of some of the items when I discovered that the white lettering on black logo did not transfer very nice on black clothing. It's not an issue with the masks at all, but for some reason the black fabric Redbubble uses for t-shirts and such is a little lighter than the black background I use in the image and therefore shows up in the final products. The white background doesn't seem to be an issue, though. So check them out at Redbubble.com!

Looking for a Flamecast?

Oh my freaking lord...

Flamecast #055 is being stubborn as hell to get recorded. Since discontinuing the use of Teamspeak, Travis, Wes and I tried using Discord last weekend and all seemed to be good... until I discovered in the editing process that my voice was the only one that was picked up. So, Travis, Matt and I tried again just a little while ago. This time I got everyone's audio in, but the video window to capture was not the correct one plus it stopped on us 19 minutes in. I discovered that after we going on about an hour later. So, another one in the trash. After doing some additional testing, the next one will be done via Zoom which has its own recording capabilities. I'll try again next month, though, because we can only cover the same topics so many times. We'll have all new things to discuss then.

Ugh.

Apologies to Wes, Travis and Matt, although it was a good time for us to catch up and just talk about stuff.

Flaming Death Stockroom Gets an Upgrade

Thanks to another person I know who sells items online, I've switched over to a different vendor for the Flaming Death Stockroom supplies. Not only is it a lot more pleasant to look at and browse through, there are quite a few more purchasing options as well. I think it was back in March that I had come up with the idea of making FDP facemasks just as kind of a joke, but I really should have taken myself seriously because everyone else started doing it! So, without further delay, I bring to you FDP facemasks! I'll have more merch on the way as soon as I go through some more design steps, but head on over to the Flaming Death Stockroom and see what's there (click on the link above, or go to it's new location at https://www.redbubble.com/people/FlamingDeath/shop).

Looking for the latest Figures Inaction post?

Some of you may be wondering about the status of Figures Inaction since there have not been any posts there since the last Saturday in December. While I have been enjoying the extended vacation (for as much as I can, that is), I am actively working on ramping up more posts for future dates and plan on continuing on the first Saturday of June which would be June 6. Perhaps I should post the first one at 6:00 AM. That would be devilish! This also gives me time to acquire more figures for posts that have been conceived of but not yet realized.

In the meantime, the entire run of Figures Inaction is available here at the website to everyone. Just use the link in the webpage's menu or go to http://figuresinaction.flamingdeath.net/.

February News - The FDP Teamspeak server, Figures Inaction & Flamecast Audio Theater

Just a few news items that happened last month...

The FDP Teamspeak server
...is dead.  Once again, the voice chat service that we use to communicate for Flamecasts and such has ceased to function which then requires a total re-setup.  After doing this two or three times in the past already, I've had it.  Future Flamecasts will either be recorded from conversations over Skype or Facebook voice chat.

Figures Inaction
Since January has been quite busy, I haven't had time to work on photos for the month.  I had planned on having things ready for February, but now it's the 1st and I'm still not ready.  We'll see what happens over this weekend, otherwise I may delay the return until the first Saturday in March.

Flamecast Audio Theater
I've been saying I was going to start doing audio stories for a number of years now, and I finally rewrote one of the old Star Wars fan film scripts I had to adapt it for an audio story instead of live action.  The next step is to audition people for the roles.  If you're interested, please contact me via the Flaming Death Productions Facebook page.

That's it for now!

Late to the Game...

A late Happy New Year to everyone!  Things have been a bit slow over here with circumstances not giving a lot of time for Flamecasts and such.  I do plan on recording again sometime soon, though, since there's been a lot to talk about.

Also, I'm a bit behind on Figures Inaction and need to take some time for that as well.  I do have some postings ready to go that are further down the line, but this month is a bit empty as of this moment.  I should have more in the tank soon, though.

Imgur Success!

It seems Figures Inaction is seeing a dramatic increase in overall views by posting over on Imgur. I've had multiple posts there with over 1,000 views, and last night's posting, Pulaski's End, is seeing the best numbers yet. After a few duds here and there to start out with, I've decided not to re-post all photos but instead post the best of the crop.

Figures Inaction on Imgur!

Seeing how another person I know has an Imgur account and seems to be doing quite well on it, I've created a Figures Inaction account on there as well. If I space out my posts there just a little, it will still be quite a while before the postings are all synchronized between all media platforms. In the meantime, check it out over at https://imgur.com/user/FiguresInaction.

Hollyweed

If you haven't seen the postings on Facebook yet, check out a pilot episode over at RivitTV.com called "Hollyweed".  It's a Kevin Smith project which looks like it has quite a bit of potential.  In order to get the series moving, you pledge a certain amount as low as $1.99 per episode and the series will be green-lit if the total amount reaches $5,305,264 on or before August 26, 2018.  So if you're a fan of Kevin like me, go out an support Hollyweed!

Flamecast transfers to Youtube

Flamecasts? On Youtube??? YES! Starting with the very first Flamecast which was posted just over 5 years ago, I'm going to be slowly uploading all Flamecast recordings to Youtube. Eventually, once I get caught up with the most recent recording, the Podbean Flamecast page will be phased out and replaced with the Flaming Death Productions Youtube channel instead. This should give us a much wider exposure, plus it saves us money by not having to keep the Podbean site active. Yay!

New Youtube Uploads

The last time I tried to upload Yoda's Treasure to Youtube (which was quite a while ago, I might add), they had a 10 minute running time cap in effect.  Unfortunately that meant that the film couldn't be uploaded since the run time is 12:14.  I had it hosted on another site but in lower quality as an alternative, and I hadn't given it a second thought until today.  While taking out frames on each film's web page and combining the information onto single pages, I came across the links for Yoda's Treasure and its outtakes.  It seemed like as good of a time to try it again as any other time, so I tried it again not only with success but with better quality as well.  So, go take another look at our first fan film and enjoy!

The Latest News

It was time for some updates needed to be done, so you may notice a few differences here on the website.

First, I've been meaning to do this for quite some time, but I've decided to pull "The Audition" out of production and consider it a cancelled project. It's been two years now since we did initial filming, however I just felt the story was lacking too much and didn't keep my interest as a result. Compared with other Star Wars fan films, this one just didn't hold up. I very much appreciate the time and effort that was contributed by the actors, however it's time to pull the plug on this one.

Second, you may have noticed that Action Trektion has been replaced in the menu by Figures Inaction.  No,  I haven't scrapped Action Trektion; it's just been rebranded!  Being that there is only so much one can do with just Star Trek action figures, I'm extending the realm to Marvel and DC figures and will even bring in my vast Star Wars collection as well.  Yes, we've had guest appearances of the old DC Super Powers figures from the early 1990s, but my collection of figures has grown over the past few months and will be welcome additions to the photo series.  Figures Inaction will keep its weekly schedule with new photos added every Saturday morning.

So what's next?  I'm getting closer to another project coming into production, so stay tuned!

Mobile Flamecast through the Podbean app

Flamecast is now set up to be compatible with your mobile device through the Podbean app which itself can be found through Google Play. It seems there was one particular setting I needed to change in my site options so you don't get the desktop version. Now that I finally have a smartphone, myself, this stuff is kinda important, right? Don't get me started on iTunes crap, though.

Website updates!

Yes, you may have realized that the website has gone through some big changes. I've eliminated the frames setup and modified the blog section to be the main page that now includes the links to the other sections of the website. Those will get their updates at some point, too, but for now let's enjoy what we have, shall we?

Star Wars fan film: The Audition

Time to get serious about the next film, The Audition. I created the outline for it last month, but a few scenes need to be scripted out. I was initially going to ad-lib them, but I think some tighter structure is needed. As with the other films, I will not only be writing but directing, producing and editing as well. I'll even be making an appearance, myself. Here's hoping this isn't a multi-year endeavor like our previous films. I'll also be locking down locations in the next couple of weeks. Hopefully I can get casting completed during this time frame as well.

Let's make a movie!

Under reconstruction

I was notified last week that my free web hosting site is going to start charging a monthly fee, so I've been looking at alternatives. The current site is actually cobbled together from three places: Doteasy.com for flamingdeath.net hosted content, Blogger for the blog posting, and Podbean for the Flamecasts. Ideally it would be nice to get everything under one with the design freedom that I have under Doteasy, but I think in the meantime I'll just find a suitable replacement for Doteasy. So, you may experience a disruption of service over the next couple of weeks as I switch, however both the Blogger and Podbean pages will themselves be available. Any news will be posted on the FDP Facebook page.

Flamecast Theater

You may have noticed a new addition to the menu up above. Flamecast Theater is an idea that I've been shooting around recently, and I'm going to be taking some steps in the future to bring it to fruition. Stay tuned!

Caretaking

Just like a garden gets its weeds and needs some extra care, this website needs some cleaning up here and there, too. Either the browser updates have reinterpreted my HTML files incorrectly, or the files have been corrupted and need some updates. I'll try to get to those later today. In the meantime, listen to a Flamecast (or eight of them). :-)

Argh....

Okay, so I've been way behind in getting updated Flamecasts recorded. I did have one almost ready to go had it not been that I got through the entire conversation and found out that it didn't record properly. Blah. I'll try again here soon, so have faith.

You may have also noticed that my Star Trek related site is no longer listed. I'm killing off that site once and for all. I am, however, going to reboot the Action Trektion portion as a side project of this site and reshoot the pictures for better quality. Something else to look forward to!

Delays, delays....

The next Flamecast will be a bit late due to out-of-state basketball tournaments and classes/homework once again. On the bright side, I have some new audio equipment on the way for recording in better quality! Sound mixer, new mic, mic stands....

Website issues

Ugh...it appears some of the website HTML files have become corrupt. I noticed the flamingdeath.net index file a while back and finally have it fixed by just re-uploading the file, but now I see that there are others that are messed up. Maybe this would be a good time to remove my Star Trek based site since I haven't updated in a long, long time (other than the Sci-Fi Party announcements, of course).

More Flamecasts coming soon

Sorry for the lack of Flamecasts. It's been quite a busy few months that don't look like they'll let up until December when my classes end for the semester. I'm hoping to return to a month-to month basis when time once again allows.
