Who/What is Longhorn Studios?
"Longhorn Studios" came about while on a vacation to Disney World with my fiance and her family. Being as camera happy as I usually am, I took a ton of photos. For that matter, everyone on the trip took some great photos. I had a camera that took video and stills without having to change a lot. I wanted to compile everything together and make something like a digital scrapbook. I had seen some people who had made just slideshows on DVD; I wanted something a bit more than that.
It did not take long that Heidi and I were organizing photos and placing them to music to make videos. We then went through and broke it up with the video that I had taken during the trip. We then made some menu images, and a true DVD was born. I have a LightScribe system as a DVD burner. I had made a DVD image for the label to be burned. One thing lead to another, and then I made a DVD case cover for the DVD. We burned a few copies and gave them to the family who went with us. As a joke, I had made a comment about Longhorn Studios recently released a Disney Vacation film.....and the rest just as they say fell into place. Since then, anything we have made has said to have been done so at "Longhorn Studios."
I have also done a lot of custom graphics in the past. I started with doing wallpaper images for computer desktop tops. That spread into a former website BPMracing.net, that I posted paint schemes for the Nascar computer sim/games from Papyrus. I often took die cast and repainted them to cars I had designed for the Nascar Racing computer sims. I took a few computer art classes in college, and use it as a hobby to pass the time.
Heidi is very talented in making floral arrangements for any event or celebration, blankets, scarves, skirts, holiday wreaths, and handbags. She has made arrangements for most of the holidays using a variety of bases and vases. Some arrangements have even included LED lighting inside to make the arrangements have a unique presentation. Her handbags and scarves get comments everytime we are out shopping. The blankets are very warm, cute, and very nice to have as gifts for someone to have on a cold evening. We have made blankets with sports teams colors and have added some custom logos to the blankets for a true one-of-a-kind product. Your family members' faces light up when you give them one of these blankets, because when they see it they know it was made for them.
We thought about opening a site that we could showcase some of the work, and make it easier for our friends and family submit their gift orders when the holidays roll around. LS is nothing fancy, just a local couple who enjoy the crafts.
