For my first post, I really don't want to go into too much, but I'd like to tell everyone who does not know me that well a little about myself.
My name is Will, or known by the handle of 'Soulz' or 'a baby seal,' and I am the webmaster of Baby Seal Productions, a website featuring all sorts of different things. The main focus is on gaming music videos, featuring gameplay footage from games such as Halo: Combat Evolved, Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Source, and many games from the Battlefield 1942 series, among others.
The idea of the website came late last year in 2006, when I was making HMV's (Halo Music Videos) and showing them to friends just for the fun of it. I had started to use the handle 'a baby seal' while playing the game, so one day I decided to take the ever-popular pokemon known as Seel and place his picture at the beginning of one of my videos with a giant 'b.s. productions' over it. After showing it to a very close friend of mine, Danny, he suggested that I start a website featuring all sorts of different things, with emphasis on the music videos. From that point, after months of development, Baby Seal Productions was started and launched in February of 2007 after Danny won a free week of advertising on a popular webcomics site.
After two months, it's been a lot of fun, no doubt about it. I have no intentions of slowing down, either. After creating a series of HMV's, I'm moving on to Counter-Strike: Source, where the first video will be released this May. In regards to what is after that, I'm not entirely sure. However, I have no intentions on slowing down. Out of all the websites that I have worked on in the past, nothing has been as fun as this. With the hell I go through at college each day, B.S. Productions gives me a sense of freedom I've lost since leaving my home last Summer.
This blog isn't going to contain posts about my daily ventures and my outlook on life. That's what my Facebook and Xanga pages are for. I'm not going to post website news here, either. That's what the website itself is for. This is going to contain my thoughts on some of the games that I play, as well as anything else relating to the website. I hope everyone who reads this will enjoy what I have to say about gaming and my experience with it.
I've always thought that you can't truly enjoy life if you're not doing something that you don't like. While this isn't something I plan on doing my whole life, for the time being it serves as an escape from my daily life, which can get hectic at times. Until the next post, thanks for reading!
