About The Blog

For the longest time, www.ehdtstudios.com was centered around our YouTube page and the videos we made for it. Since recently, video production has slowed down. This can be blamed on a number of innocent things but most notably; we simply haven't the time anymore to be making movies.  University students are busy people -- and not only are we busy people -- we have different priorities.

Lately I've found that my various hobbies and interests have had me wanting to write on this blog at a time where it wouldn't be particularly suitable.

Therefore, I have decided to change the direction of this blog to encompass my life in general. I have found myself wanting to showcase my talents and abilities through my websites; but never did I think that the old ehdtstudios.com was the appropriate medium to do so.

I guess you could say this new format is like an online resume or portfolio. In that sense, it will present myself outside of what a printed resume can do. Regardless though, I won't always be showing this to employers.

Some people ask me if EHDT is dead. Others ask me if they can know what it stands for. The answer to both of these questions is NO. EHDT Studios is about more than just movies. I intended it to be that way when I though of it. It represents a whole lot more than a YouTube page and a few rambunctious teenagers. Which always brings people to wonder what the notorious EHDT acronym stands for. I'm not saying.

UPDATE (as of 02/09/2011)
The evolution of EHDT Studios has gone flawlessly and the frequency of posts has gone up with great response. I have had some fantastic contributions, advice, and criticism from my peers that has helped me make this place more fun an interesting. I have hundreds of bottled-up ideas ready to go for the new year and I can't wait to get them posted. Obviously, school and work keep me extremely occupied and I rarely find the time to write here. I continue to think about the blog every day and constantly think of new ways to entertain my beloved readers.
As for the new content that I have been trying out. It has certainly been fun generating an online persona and ethos that I can use to represent myself as a student and one day, a professional.
Stay tuned for some exciting content in the coming months!
