How would you act if today was all you had?

About Me

I'm older than I look but very young at heart. I like to keep up with the latest hot thing but that doesn't mean that I'm a brain-less "consumer zombie".I'm the son of an artist: Chuck CaplingerSo, I can't help but be creative, It's in my blood (Texas Haunts)I write and record music for various projects. I like to change reality with Photoshop. I went to school at the Art Institutes for music, audio, and video editing. I play guitar, bass, keyboards, and drums. I sing and act every now and then. Lately I've been into doing sound, make-up and Special FX for haunted attractions like Phantoms Haunt I've done some work for Texas Frightmare weekend as well as local theater, and Independent films.I've also do work as a photographer and videographer for shows like The Amazing Adventures of a Nobody.I teach Martial arts for the Genbukan and have been known to contribute to this Budo Forum.I own Gerbils but have never spoken to Richard Gere: Urban Legends .I've never been shy when it comes to trying new things. I've worked as a PC hardware/software tech, an A/V installer/tech, low voltage tech adviser and a Home theater install tech. It should be obvious that I love gadgets and tech toys.To truly know my personality go here: Personality TestAnd Here: Chinese Horoscope Supposedly I'm a take charge kind of guy. :DI don't always take things at face value and consider my self a critical thinker. I have a warped sense of humor (doesn't everyone these days?) and use it often. Tell me about things in your corner of the universe

My Interests

I teach and study Japanese martial arts. I write and play music and i've been in a couple of bands. I've put out three CDs now (they all suck, maybe one day I'll get it right, heh, heh) I enjoy photoshopping and video editing until the wee hours of the morning. I'm a freelance videographer (trying to make the most of my Art Institute degree). I'm a part time actor and enjoy doing haunted houses every year (lighting, SPFX, make up, costumes, design, acting). Independent film, Stunts, Fight Choreography, Film and video Scoring, Stage Illusions, Voice Over, Sound Effects, Technology wrangler.

I'd like to meet:

peeples of all kinds
