Coming to class on Tuesday, I was somewhat excited that the majority of my video work was going to be put onto the NCAT computer. I uploaded them happily, but sadly realized that my uploaded videos into IMOVIE displayed an advertising logo. I was furious since it took me a few days to edit those videos and I possibly would have to do it all over again. I anxiously waited for Greg M to get to class and I told him my problem as soon as he got there. The credibility that I have formed for him just continuously rises since he fixes all of the problems I have on the computer. The solution was converting the files from the Windows Media Player format to one that the Mac computer complies with. This process took longer but I was just happy that I did not have to do all of the editing all over again. This assignment took the rest of the class period.

My planned day for recording was scheduled for Tuesday, December 2nd. I happily received the camera from Greg M close to the end of class that day. I tried contacting my actors and they all failed me because they were busy. But what I later realized was that I could not have started recording in the first place. I have two interviews in my video recording and I failed to recognize earlier that I need a prop microphone. I contacted my classmate Liz and she referred me to John Larrance. I sent him an email and he took care of me. i went to go pick up the microphone the next day and started recording 30 minutes later. I set up my first interview on the football field and was successful after a few takes. My second interview was later on the afternoon and that one took forever. This was also took place on the football field until it was getting dark and needed somewhere else to shoot. We needed some good takes without mess-ups so we went to the weight room. The staff thankfully let us go the back weight room to record where only varsity sports teams with coaches are allowed. This was also a long process recording in there because my friends find the simplest of things funny and we would have to start over continuously. We got it done about an hour later and I was stressed, but I think I was more happy that it was over than stressed.

Thursdays class came and I needed to get the footage off of the camera and start editing. I found out the NCAT was not going to be open Friday and Saturday so I needed to get on my grind. But then I received a miracle because Professor Daniels said that the following class was canceled which meant we could stay in the lab as long as we wanted. It took almost the whole class period to get the clips off the camera that I needed. But after that it was crunch time. I just continued editng my videos until I felt that I was comfortable leaving it where it was. I ended up missing a final presentation meeting with my group for another class and leaving the NCAT at 6:40pm straight from entering class at 12:40pm. Project work was still not done after that, I had to walk over to Augsbury and get the final football game from my football coach that I have been tracking down for weeks. There were rumors said that they lost it but I contiuned to be on their backs to find it. So i picked up the DVD, went to go eat dinner, took a shower, and went to bed with a headache.
