Avenue C & Eagle Drive

Filming of our RTVF project went very well last weekend, and editing went smoothly too. It’s officially a finished product. My partner and I were really happy with how it came out. After we show it in class, expect a YouTube link here pretty soon.

I’ve also noticed that I’ve fallen into a blogging rut. It seems that Sundays have turned out to be a pretty good day to do this. A day that I can just sit at my local coffee shop and take a big brain dump, for lack of a better term, on the interwebz. This is a rut I think I can stick to.

I’ve been contemplating purchasing a mac mini fairly soon, since my classes later in my RTVF career will most likely require expertise in Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, and the other media-type goodies exclusive to the mac. I’m not really looking to use such programs on this mac, but I just want to get myself more familiar with the OS X interface and such so I don’t look like a retard when I go into the editing labs. It would also help me greatly in my computer support job, as well, since it seems like we’re getting more and more macs. I’ve been thinking that the base model mini with a 4GB memory upgrade will be plenty. For big-time storage, I can just dump crap on my Linux box over the network.

This afternoon should be busy, since I have to finish many different activities to finish my Spanish “portfolio” due tomorrow. I need to watch one movie, read three Spanish articles, write brief summaries about the movie and the articles, and rewrite a past Spanish composition. I hate this stuff, but thankfully it’s not too bad. For the next portfolio due, I want to find the Spanish movie where the dude jumps off a boat and directly into a shark’s mouth. Anyone have the title of that film?

And now, on with the rest of the day.
