Today we had the first meeting of the embryonic team that is Ask A Ninja 2.0 Douglas and I piled into Brett’s big ole pickup and started transforming my apartment into a studio. And our first Nintern, Jon, showed up and was aces.
We needed a new greenscreen and bought a big paper roll and two grow lights, which are used for another type of green, but are also similar to movie lights that cost 15x the price. The guys were skeptical, but the tests turned out great.
I was inspired by this Indymogul episode.
The bigger thing is that it’s just fun and terrifying to put ourselves out there like this, can we build up to be a force again? I think so, I have faith in the creativity that we as a team are building. We’ve lined up a big surprise for our first day back, and got more in store.
Also we’re taking suggestions as to where the Ninja has been in his time off. You can tweet him at @realaskaninja.




My idea about where the Ninja has been on the Jersey Shore spying on Snookie and the gang until they got out of control. Dad’s idea is the Ninja was taking a vacation riding on an asteroid but it was getting so close to earth he decided to come back.
