I felt it time to reveal one of my hobbies (and follow up such a sad photo with something a little more fun!) This is a still from a video project I made for my Digital Video Imaging class back in 1999 entitled "Barbie-volution - the evolution of Barbie". It was without a doubt the most time consuming project I've ever done in my life! The video is only three minutes long, but it took and entire semester to complete, and it is amazing - I made Barbie walk! Although I'm afraid I cannot take credit for the beautiful Bryce background graphic (created for me by H. Stephen D.), I did indeed take the photograph of the doll, create the waterspout, and put it all together to create this scene. The doll is Bob Mackie's "Neptune Fantasy" Barbie. She is my all time fave Barbie and the reason I began collecting.
