Week 8: DVD production

After a short break, we are back for DVD production of Darwin Festival. Aaron and myself discussed with Eric how's the whole process gonna be and the details of everything. In group discussion, Keree and Jocelyn decided to work on dvd menu by using studio pro. Eric let them to study in Lynda.com using his account, and they did more research on youtube as well. Chris,XiaoJing and Jerry will be working on the video content to arrange them together.

Brooke came in the class together with Megan and we sit down together to decide which are and which not to be use in the full DVD video, we watch all the previous youtube video and decide on each part to be use. Aaron take notes down as a reference for editing. I kind of know whats Megan and Brooke thinking and I know what they like to be in the video, even though Aaron and myself were told not to do much on editing but letting the others doing it, but I couldn't stand it doing nothing and just pointing them to do this and that. I like editing very much and I like to have my hands on editing the final video as well.

I forget to blog on my last blog entries on my process of doing 3D promo video, after I get the footage from fun run and dancing on the sand, I passed the 3D cam to Eric as he will be taking footages at another event. He passed the Cam and SD card to me next day and I given a day time to finish up the video. I spend more than 5 hours in the editing room to finish up the video because he need it before 3pm next day. I couldn't finish at night because met some problems with the computer, I came back the next morning to continue my editing, I manage to export the final product in time and give it to Eric. He is happy after present it in one of the event and get enough survey from the audience.
