Bobby Dennie

// bitter guy, many sides · Québécois in Singapore · 25 yrs shipping
Bobby Dennie as an action figure, The Digital Overlord
// my agent made me an action figure. I didn't ask. this is the whole site in one photo.
▶ watch the intro
Evernote full. Notion full. A thousand Udemy classes. Cameras researched, bought, barely used. Tutorials watched, dreams logged, the best of everything collected. And shipped almost none of it.
// so I built a lab that pushes me out of the box and makes me finish

The confession
Organized to the point of never starting
Systematic. Filed. Colour-coded. A thousand courses studied, every note tagged, all the theory memorized. The organizing became the procrastination. The perfect system for shipping nothing. This site breaks that: rough and out beats organized and invisible.

Years of YouTube scanned, banked, judged in my head. Never written down. Each save is a post waiting. We pull one, I react, it ships.

The gear graveyard
Bought everything. Shot almost nothing.
DJI Pocket 4 + Pocket 2. Sony NEX-3. GoPro Hero4 Silver. A Flip. More gimbals than tripods. Boxes of accessories still in their boxes. Hours of gear, minutes of footage.

Pearlyn, 2011. Li-ann, 2012. James, 2014. The reason the site only has to be useful to them.

Rode dawn to night through COVID when the business went quiet. Lost weight. Kept going. Came back to Rezult.

The Lab's first star
the cat dressed as a ninja on an HDB windowsill
The pet, dressed as a ninja
Because the Lab has no client to say no. Singapore HDB, one very unimpressed cat.

Rejected concepts live here
The Phono talking bear. Two cats in gangster suits. Ideas clients killed, resurrected on me. No one left to spook.

I might not answer. But I'll at least ask myself. Sometimes that's the whole post.
office hours: maybe next week. maybe the one after. maybe never.
The bucket list
Someday / maybe / one day
move to the other side of the planet
build the agency
actually publish "Breaking the Circle"
cut the travel footage into one real film
do something with getlostinasia.com
ship one open loop all the way to done
shoot a proper piece on the Pocket 4
The list is long. The checkmarks are few. That's a life, I guess. The site is me finally moving one line up.
The background
Quebec punk zines to dial-up to Mosaic to Flash to WordPress to agents. I've watched every "this kills everything" cycle for 25 years and I'm still shipping. Factory work, Recruitsoft, laid off after 9/11, three weeks in Singapore that never ended, GrabFood through COVID, then Rezult.
Today I build and run real sites for real businesses, mostly self-hosted, mostly by prompt. I know the stack underneath, databases, servers, Docker, where the AI helps and where it lies. That's the day job.
Here's the honest part: my clients always get delivered, on time, polished, no excuses. Myself is the one I never ship for. So I hired my own agent and avatar to publish this on my behalf. The gap between how I serve others and how I serve me is the whole joke, and this whole site.
