The video is finally to my satisfaction but now there is the issue of uploading the bloody thing onto the internet *grumble grumble* Come to the conclusion that Angelfire sux already!
Spent the last 3 hours carving a pumpkin - not bad seeing how it's now 2.45am and I'm useless in the world of pumpkin carving. Looks vaguely like a ghost but then so do bed sheets :P
Hmm, trying to make journal sound at least a little bit interesting but it obviously isn't going to happen tonight. Poopy. -

Still having trouble with the compression of the video - so far if it goes below 50 Megs the picture is so poor it makes it painful to watch :( Currently trying to compress the sound a little to see if this will have much affect.
Find it slightly annoying looking at other new entries and seeing "oh this is my first video, it took me 5 hours..." or "Oh this is something I just made in my sleep.." since I know my entry will be something like "Umm, from planning to actually getting the bastard to work took me something like 6 months..." But then I've had the handicap of having a computer that for a couple of months couldn't play sound and video at the same time so I guess it's not entirely that I'm slow :) -
It's alive! It's alive! Wahahahahahaha!!!!!

FINALLY! I got the son of a bitch to work! YESSSSSS!!!!!!
*does happy dance*
After so many computer problems, software problems, and so on and so forth, I have FINALLY finished my first video! Could you tell that I was happy about this?
I just need to find somewhere to upload it so that I can actually let other people see it - it's a bit big, 63.5 Megs for 4.20 minutes so I don't know how happy people will be to download it but if I compress it much further it destroys all the detail! I might try experimenting with that tomorrow.
Happy camper! :) -
Tad frustrating....

I've had the idea for my video for MONTHS, literally I was telling my friends back in April about my idea but I couldn't get started on it because of technical errors.
Now that the video is in its final tweaking stages (I'm a perfectionist, what can I say) I've seen recently not one but TWO other people do the same idea.
So much for going for a semi-original idea - considering just putting up the video as is.
More strange dreams again - hoping the cough syrup is responsible. Otherwise I seriously need therapy! :) -

Second try at entry - even my computer's giving up on me now! Have a 9 o'clock lecture which I don't see myself making, neuroscience is just too bloody difficult at that time of morning!
The hacking cough is getting better - hurrah! But have to spend about 3 hours tomorrow with the most vile individual on earth.
Anyone reading this, please tell me: what do you do if you HATE a person (and I mean you'd rather kill yourself than spend time with them) but you have to see them on a regular basis, and worse still they think you're the nicest person in the world, not to mention their best friend whom they can tell ALL their troubles to?
If anyone knows how to deal with this (telling them to f- off and die is unfortunately not an option) then please let me know!
