maristuSo, how's the vidding community lately? You know, for the first time I'm right here in the States, have cable in my apartment, and can actually keep up with all the shows I want right up there with you guys. Problem is, I still haven't figured out where all the programs are. In Brazil there were basically three channels: WB, Sony and Fox. Here, there are hundreds of them! I'll have to make a time sheet or something...
Thing is, there aren't really that many shows that interest me anymore. Or maybe I'm missing something really good. What have y'all been watching (and vidding) lately?
Anyway, like I mentioned in a previous post, I'm taking a video editing class. And our first project was... You guessed it, a music video! :) Well, I was definitely happy with that! Although I wanted to present something that didn't constitute copyright infringement, so that it could be shown at the school's student presentations. So I decided to go with the band. Yeah, I know, it does seem like it's an obsession, but you know, it's just *there*, I have tons of footage from a million rehearsals and performances, and I can use them any way I like, and the songs, too, so I figured it was a good project.
Except that I couldn't get the darn footage to work on Final Cut Pro. Still working on that, and I might have figured it out, so maybe I'll do it anyway. But we had a deadline, and I needed to do *something*, so I reverted to what I already knew and made a music video to a series. More specifically, Tom Hank's "From the Earth to the Moon", which I just happened to have bought recently and enjoyed tremendously. It's done, burned on a CD and handed over to my teacher, who is going to critique it this next Tuesday.
But I was just wondering, would anyone be interested in beta-ing it for me? Pretty please? :)
