perfecting the video
Obviously I would prefer to have finished my video in its conceived format….a series of trailers about how I met, MAC, my laptop, and how he helped me become a writer, culminating in a “writing”. One of the frustrations (actually it’s becoming humorous now) of the project is how easily I can actually misuse technology through “almost” understanding. I feel a little like I did in Calculus class….I can go through the motions with the teacher, but lack the skills to do some of it on my own.
I THOUGHT I had properly downloaded my four hours of Allerton footage, but actually was only LOOKING at it on the computer screen because the camera was still attached. Sadly only the last 15 minutes was saved. oy. Anyway, I did a very rush job with my trailer but was semi-happy with the result. It had a sense of my great frustration with an omnipotent sense of doom. Damien revisited. The music instantly brought me back to my Omen days. But my soul my resist any more editing….
