Ok I haven't updated my blog in a while and thats because I've been losing badly at Modern Warfare 2 for the past few weeks.
So, onto the topic of today's post.

I've finally started working on my first feature film!!. Based on the Call of Duty : Modern Warfare series, it will follow a squad of British service men fighting against an invasion in the UK.

Work on the trailer for "Exodus" has started with the compositing of the title scene. Footage for the trailer will be shot after the New Year, and edited once the required software arrives from the US.

So don't expect an update for a while, but you'll know when things progress with the adding of a youtube video.

The Mac Morons?

If you haven't been checking out my YouTube page, I've recently uploaded two videos to it. Both of these were shot on my MacBook, using the PhotoBooth application. I've had a bit of success with them, currently the first one is on 88 views, with the second following up with 19. My channel is finally getting some videos on it!!

Anywhere, here it is for you to enjoy =)

Wow that one was a short post.....

Editing is for lazy people......

Editing is for lazy people? No I haven't had a change of interest in the industry. But its a point some people bring up at times. Is editing really just for people who like to sit in a chair and push buttons on a keyboard, every button representing another part of your eyesight being lost? Weelll..... yeah thats kinda it really. But if you stop and think, most other jobs include a chair, and as an added bonus, you keep your eyesight!!! Directors sit in chairs. Cameramen sit in chairs. Actors are in chairs. Sound people are in chairs. The most active job on a film location. Well if you find yourself rushing around everywhere, chances are you are a runner!! This is basically you being someone's slave for that day. And the next. And the next.....

Anyway, now that I've cleared that up, on with todays post. This one is about my hate of the fact that my college's post production software isnt compatible with my post production software on my laptop!! This just annoys me. Fine my software is a basic version of the software at college, but its the fact that trying to move the file from the college software into my software doesn't work. I mean the file's are exactly the same, so why can't i use both software type's!?!?
At least you get a very helpful notice pop up. It reads, "General Error (41)"
Now doesn't that just tell you everything you need to know?

Now, I told you a while ago about a music video I was making (I think). If not, it doesn't matter. It's s***. So I will save your souls the disappointment of suffering the viewing of it. But I will be uploading the film coursework I am editing. Remember I do the editing and not the sound or cinematography, so if any trolls decide to tell me how the cinematography is "obviously done by a retard, you fag...", I wont be caring.

Just before I sign off for today, I just want to let you know that I will be starting the vlog version of this soon! So the youtube account will be linked in every post. I may even make this one my first vlog topic. Gotta start somewhere.

Happy editing!!
