Coming back home a few weeks ago, you'd think that it'd be nice and relaxing, but what I found waiting for me when I got back was a mountain of work. *sigh*
So, first things first, I started a new job as a videographer for Auburn University's College of Liberal Arts. I was quite proud of actually getting the job. So I'm getting used to that whole system and trying to show the department that I was worth hiring. That all aside, I'm filming some interviews all week next week, and even taking a day trip to Oak Grove, AL in order to document "Comet Grove", which actually sounds very interesting. I'll post more whenever the video is completed.
On top of that, I'm not sure if I've mentioned that I've been writing for geek culture blog Geekti.me in my spare time. I'm one of the writers for their "Game Corner" column and I've been posting other articles that I've had the time to write as well. My latest article, on my hands on experience with the Uncharted 3 Beta, isn't up just yet, but it will be sometime this week.
And, I'll be starting research on my documentary focus by the end of this month, as well as moving to a new apartment. I'm working with over 300 gbs of footage right now, probably more to come, but I'll try and keep everyone posted as time goes on.
One last thing, I purchased Final Cut Pro X about a week or two ago, I'm currently editing a promotional piece with it, and I have to say that I'm actually enjoying it thus far. I was quite put off at first, much like everyone else, but after a few hours of hands on time and some help from some tutorials online, I've noticed that my "new" workflow is actually saving me tons of time. Now focusing on actually finishing the edit is a totally different story. But, if you're interested, I found these tutorials SUPER helpful.
Oh, and I got engaged on June 23rd, 2011 while I was in Taormina, Italy. :)
Until next post.
