Frustration

So I finished my review of Black Death and submitted it to Blip, and was rejected due to low quality. I was afraid that would happen as my camera is not so great. So before I can re-submit I'll need an HD camera. I then went to put my review on youtube but I would need to verify my account as the video is longer than 10 minutes, but that part of the site isn't working.... I just can't win.

Update and such

As I said in my last post I was going to work on the projects I had let fall to the side. That's what I have been doing. I have been inking the stack of pages I have for Bullet Time issues 4 and 5, and I completed my script for the black death review. I have been learning premiere elements, and have picked the films for my second and third reviews... I think. Now I just have to harvest the clips I'll need, film the review and edit it. I'll admit starting from nothing knowledge wise on this has had a steeper learning curve than I was expecting. I assume as I get to where I know what I'm doing this process will go faster.

Ok, State of thing...

OK, creatively here's where I stand on my projects. I continue to truck forward on my inking for Bullet time issues 4 and 5 and Mushroom murders issue 5. At some point I plan to make some new strips for www.hedgehoggames.com. But that may still be a ways off. The writing for my first review is about half done, and most of the writing for my first "open letter" video is done. I am still working on learning premiere elements 10 So if any knows any good yet free online tutorials that would be awesome. As yet I haven't been able to break 10 twitter followers (@jaconey1) but that's ok. So that's where I stand.

Weekend Update

So I'm inking, and writing. I've begun writing the script for my first video. The second video is already written. So once the first one is written then all that is left is to film the two and learn to use the editing software. That shouldn't be hard ......right?

I know, I know....

So here's how everything is going here. I was way sick for the last week and got nothing done. Nothing. I hate that. So now I'm trying to catch up. I'm inking pages of Bullet time and Mushroom murders. Mushroom murders #4 is almost done. I did take a couple of hours out to learn to make rifftrax DVD's. Both because I wanted them and the programs used will give me more video editing flexibility....I think. I now have everything I need to do video reviews. I bought the paint fro the desk last night. Now I have to repair the desk, as it was second hand (OK I picked it up next to a dumpster, are you happy?) and build the set. I have assembled the studio lights. That's where everything stands. Now back to work to get a little bit more done before gaming tonight.

Bwa hahahahhahha

My grinchy video plans are much closer to becoming reality. I just bought a copy of Bandicam, which is a pretty neat program. I got all the supplies I needed for my set, except for the paint. (I need to paint the chest of drawers I'll be using as a desk) I ordered the video editing software from amazon saving almost 50 bucks over our local Best Buy (between that and the service I have gotten there over the last 2 years it's no wonder they are dying, but that's a rant for another time). Finally I got 2 1000 watt work lights with tripod stands, and a Sony camcorder. Thank you tax refund. Now to start setting it up and figure out what to do first.
