6/17/09 Stormy Days

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

Well, yesterday we had some tornados in the area along with thunderstorms….today seems to be the same.  I usually choose to keep my editing system turned off during these times.  I had a situation a few years ago where a storm knocked out the power, when I finally got to turn the computer back on, it had damaged the hard drives and I lost everything….needless to say, I don’t want to ever experience that again.  I do have it connected to an APC now, but I still feel as though it’s better to be safe then sorry.  So these days are spent more in meetings and in trying to drum up more business for the company rather than the creative side of getting any editing done.  I have 2 meetings today, 1 is with a company that might be interested in representing me as a director, the other is a friend of mine who has started a company you should check out..  Brite Revolution.  We will be discussing the addition of video content onto the site.

6/9/09 Editing Shinedown for MTV

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Today I am working on the edits for Shinedown. I directed a live shoot in Atlanta and now it must be cut to 5 songs that will be edited into a 30min. program on MTV2. MTV sent a 3 page list of all the requirements for leaving commercial spots, slates, and black, along with final video formats and so on… should be a fun edit. I don’t know the air date yet, but I’m told it will be sometime in July. I will try and keep you posted. I’m sure the both of you that are reading this will be on the edge of your seats!!
