Working Out the Bugs.
I worked all day today on some little details on the site. I added some things in the portfolio.. Changed a how a few things worked and fixed some bugs. I still have some things left like the info page and a few forms that I am going to create so that customers can come to my site and really get a project started rolling right then and there. I got somethings done today but I have a lot more to go…
Business Cards have been in for a while and if you haven’t got to see them in person yet here is a photo. Its not like seeing them in person but you can get the idea!
Busy with the Web.
I have been really really busy lately with Logos, Full Website, Styling Sites, eBay, Business Cards, Flyers, and Photography… Like really busy. Can you ever have to much to do? ….. Stupid question right… Ha
Here are some sites that I have just gotten done in the last week though! Take a look!
Above is Blakes new Blog, He posts more then I do right now so comment and tell him to slow down on his work cause it sucks anyway. Ha. Just joking Blake! Really his work is some of the best! Better 3D then I have ever or ever will create! You have to go check it out. I just styled this one.. It was built on wordpress and I used the Barthelme theme as my base because I really liked the font and the way the meta data was laid out, plus I couldn’t really spend that much time on it cause I really dont have much time.
This Site above, is a site that I worked a really long time on because I really just took the wrong approach at it and coded the whole thing from scratch. I dont think I will ever do that again. I will definitley be using wordpress as my CMS from now on! If you ever need anything done to your car though, Arrow Auto Body is the Place to go for sure!
ReduceOurUtilityCost.com is actaully AAA Infrared Building Diagnostics, LLC. They are a new company in Syracuse IN doing Home and business Energy Audits. They use a Special Infrared Camera to take photos of your house and can detect where energy is leaking out, or cold air is leaking in. The camera can also detect moisture and all kinds of things behind your walls. Take a look at their site for tons of more info on the subject.
This website was done through Benson Communications on the Website Maintence Program (WMP). The WMP is a great package deal that includes everything you need to get yourself or business online! From the Hosting to the Design to the SEO.
I also did the logo for this company with finishing touches all done by John Azzilonna.
Well I am sure there are tons more websites on the horizon, I have 2 more to finish content on; BensonCom.com and WawaseeFlotilla.com. Those should be up soon. For now I am going to get back to work on some Photography that I need to get printed today.
Comment >New Business Cards for Me!
New Business Card finally out to print!!! I started this back before winter in fall, but just now I was satisfied with them enough to actaully get them printed! I am wicked stoked for them to come in now!
Both sides will have spot UV on the lines and on the logo! I will take detailed photos when they come in next week!

4 commentsSno Drift Rally – Atlanta, MI
A few weeks ago I went up to the Sno Drift Rally in Atlanta, MI. You can see the Post below from the day I went with some Mobile uploads.
I Ended up taking around 500 photos that day and I weeded it down to around 200 and posted them on my Event Photo Blog. photoby.teddypieper.com
Here are some of my Favorite ones.
It was a lot of fun going out there and watching. If anyone wants to sponsor me and my dad so that we can participate next year?!
Comment >How We Were the First to Find the Boston Dead Drop.
Ok I was going to post this yesterday but… Ended up not happening. Non the less here is the story about how Matt Lebrun and I found the dead drop that lee brimelow dropped in Boston.
It was about 10:30 in the morning and I had already been at work for an hour and a half just messing around in twitter and such at the time. Matt got on and was super stoked and proceeded to send me a Link to your post about the dead drop in Boston. We had watched the San Francisco dead drop unfold a week ago and we really wanted talked about how we really wanted to partake in it if you ever did it in Boston, so now was our chance.
At first I didn’t spend to much time on it because I was at work and also I had to go out on-site to set up a computer on a network for this business, I work a Computer Tech place in a Small Town where I work on computers and also handle all the Web Design/Graphic Design/Video Editing or whatever tech problem that anyone in this little town comes up with. Well we figured that It had to deal with the book cause obviously the ISDN number from amazon was the sequence of letters turned into there respected numerical value. The Australian guy in the comments helped us along with that one haha.
Matt tried going to his library to try and decode the sequence of numbers with no luck and had to leave without really thinking it through, cause he has no car and his ride needed to leave. I Looked up on my local Library’s site to see if they had the book in, and they did. Luckily the Library is right next door to my work so I clocked out and ran over there real quick all the time keeping in touch with Matt on all that was going on. I got to the Library and sat down with A Beautiful Mind to start the decoding. I proceeded to try 3 Different ways cause at first it really wasn’t making much since:
1. page-paragraph-word
2. page-word-letter
3. page-line-word
The Last one made sense but at the time I was taking photos of the pages and uploading them to Facebook for Matt to see as well, so it didn’t really click at first. Then I thought of the letters equaling numbers DUH! haha. I used page-line-word and the first letter in that word would equal a number and I imediatly came out with 42 40.975, 71 15.490. I texted it to Matt and told him to get going! I went back to work and punched in the numbers into Google, as did Matt and luckily he double checked my work on page 163 which I had uploaded to facebook and found that I had put a 4 instead of a 2 on the first coordinate… Ooops! Non the less we got it fixed (42 20.975*) and he barrowed his moms car and proceeded to drive an hour to the location.
When He got there he called me up so that I could give him some directions and help on finding it. He said that he saw some people out there and he didnt know weather they were just walking dogs or looking for the drop. I advised him to hurry up! haha. As I was talking to him an Intern and my Manager were standing there looking at the blog post and we started looking closely at the photo for more clues and figure out then that it was a red square nailed to a tree! That helped Matt out a ton cause now he had something to really look for! I got off the phone with cause we were running up the minutes! Moments later he called me back to check and see if he was on the right trail and with a combination of street view and some input he was giving me I, we figured he was on the right trail and just had to go down to the end and to the right/north. Then we hung up again.
After a few moments he called back and said he found it! his hands were freezing and he was getting the hell out of there! He drove down a couple exits and pulled over and unwrapped it…. IT WAS CS4 MASTER COLLECTION!! We were wicked stoked on the find and I immediately emailed you the secret message!! This was at about 4:57pm when he had finally found it and opened it!
And thats the story… Hope you Enjoyed it! Leave comments/share!
The photos below are of Matt with CS4 and my code breaking sheet!

D4W-Down 4 Whateva [Official Music Video]
Last month I was asked by a good friend of mine Corday Cardwell – Lution Media to do behind the scenes videography for this music video that Wuz Good and Murray Mile were putting together. I agreed of course why would I turn something like that down! Although it was long hours 12 hours on the first day and a little over 12 on the second day, it wasnt that bad cause I was having so much fun working with the camera and being around an amazing team that was putting this music video together. If you have the time check these guys out! Lution Media In my opinion they are the best team of people in Orlando that you could possibly want doing a production of any kind!
Big props to my man Chan! I can not forget him! Casey Chan Directed and edited this Behind the Scenes video, I just operated a camera as well as took pictures.
Navigate over to my Portfolio Section and you can see a few shots I took while I was on the set.
