I met with Rodney today at 7:30am. I realized even with youtube tutorials, I was going to need help fixing up these videos. I figured out (after calling around for help) that I need to render the video after each effect/ transition I add in. Part of the slow motion problem.
Today I am compiling a set list of the videos & order - audio/video/text/music that I need. I called off work tomorrow so I can meet with Rodney and his senior class at Auburn at 11-2, so they can help me put all of this together. He said we can hopefully get it done by the end of the week.
I'm going to try and go back thursday to go over everything.
Unfortunately, when I took Rodney the footage and what I have already completed on Premiere, the Premiere videos can't just be copied onto the flash drive I bought.. So now I have to go to the library between classes to export the videos that are still in an unrefined state to show him the general gist.

ERROR
I'd like to point out that the time stamp at the bottom of this blog.. .IS SO ABSOLUTELY WRONG. on my 9:34 update it said 3 or 4 pm! I wish! Maybe I could feel that sun on my face if it was still 4pm. I'm about to check my settings - maybe it's still stuck on Europe time from my summer trip..
9:34
Wellllllll... I am currently waiting patiently (which is hard) for the video to render - suggestion from Andy via email. Hopefully this will help the slow-mo problem.
I think the second of Mary Kay's video is coming together very very nicely... if only Premiere would catch up!!!
Looks like I will be spending my Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday night in here. Maybe I should get a poster to livin' up this room. The old man manican behind me (the room is shared with Nursing) is the only life-form I've seen in hours. He's not much of a talker. He does have a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket.
I better get a Grammy after these are finished....
joke.
leaving at 10pm
1 to 10 (- 30) = 8.5 hours

7pm update
Alright!! I took a 30 minute break around 4:22 to grab Starbuck, yogurt, and oatmeal. Obvious neccessities when editing for HOURS.
Brandi's video are giving me a bit of trouble - if i add any transition effects so it doesn't look so choppy - Premiere decides that it cannot function properly. it plays the video in sloooow motion. Hopefully Andy can advise me on that Tuesday.
I started working on Mary Kay's first video - titled Voice. almost finished.. just need to rewatch when the transitions work properly.. but otherwise I think I added a clever element to her video.
She is wonderful at speaking.. the only thing is.. I have SO MUCH FOOTAGE of her. and not enough of Brandi!! IY!
All will work out. Very excited.. this is taking a TON of time however. looks like I will be getting even more familiar with this chair over the next week. I'll be here til 11- I'm sure of it.
5.5 hours so far

Sunday Video Editing
I got to the library at 1:01 pm - editing for 1 hour and 27 minutes now..! Library closes at 11pm, so I hope I can get most of Brandi's footage done by then!
Im craving Starbucks.
Currently trying the different effects in Premiere.
Brandi's 'Process' video is about 30 seconds. which initialy scared me- that it was too short. but I realized.. I dont want to watch something drag on & on. it's to the point and gives an inside look on her working on a piece. I'm estimating about 4 videos for Brandi by the time I'm finished..

Lots of work
Yesterday was a haze... lot's of meetings, phone calls, emails, and running around related to video editing & nailing down QR code creation
I met Andy at 8:30am today to retrieve the video footage - we need to provide more space on my student H drive to transfer all of the footage from his desk to somewhere I could access it.
Miraculously, the library has place Premiere Elements 9 on a computer in the basement - which I am currently learning the basics / youtube-ing tutorials / importing all of my footage! Phew! I see the light at the end of the tunnel!!
I need to contact Diane & Anna Arnold to find out what art work of Brandi's will be placed in the show. Then I will retrieve the fancy photos they have already taken of their artwork - to add to the clips.
I spoke with Brandi yesterday about creating a QR code from her medium. This would be cool - if we had only one QR code for her. Now I realize, I will most likely have 3 short clips of her spaced out throughout her work. It makes the most sense (rather than having a 3 minute long youtube video of information that does not coorelate).
After work today I will work in the library until they kick me out!
[ while I was typing this, Brandi called me back - she will email me tomorrow a powerpoint of her artwork - she has just finished the list of her pieces that will be displayed in the show ]

Footage & more
SO!
I grabbed some great footage of Mary Kay on Saturday after Creative Arts Day! I'm hoping to work with Andy to edit soon. I think I am all set on video taping Mary Kay. I would like to grab some more shots of Brandi working in the studio as well.
As for the other artists... I guess we will have to wait until after spring break- since I'll be in El Salvador. It's been pretty tricky getting them to respond. March is going to be a jam packed month for sure!
I found some really cool videos of Selwyn Senatori (a neo-pop artists that I discovered when I went to Europe). Maybe we can have some editing like this?
