First day of class and some technical problems. Digital video technology is changing at a lightening pace and I think using newer software has left CS3 Premiere in the dust. Joe is working to see if there is an easy fix to the problem. I will find out what formats will actually work and also provide good quality in the video.
The audio problem appears to be one of wiring. Many of the pieces on YouTube have ended up being mono, single channel, audio and the wires connecting the computer to the sound mixer don't seem to be too happy with single channel sound.
I will have the files ready for logging and editing next week. We will start with just a 30 second nat sound edit and then we will see if there is time for something bigger. I will also bring some music that we can use for doing a more musically based cut.
We will also have the audio in shape so that I can show you the examples and then deconstruct them so that you can understand the process of making them.
So, take a look at the clips from HK and NYC on YouTube and think about what you would like to put into 30 seconds of nat sound video and then 30 seconds of music.
Be sure to get started on the interactive DVD. You will be responsible for returning them in working order. Also read the syllabus so that you can sign that you know what's expected of you in the class.
Until later...
