Tonight is finally the last night of editing our documentary. It's finally hitting me that this project is almost over and my partner and I will be able to hear the responses from the audience on Friday night. Tonight all we had to do was add a picture and clip of Christian and his father, Print to tape, and burn it to a DVD. Yes, this may sound very simple... Only 3 things to do. Absolutely NOT! Well, when we opened up the documentary some of our files went offline. I have no idea of how this could have happened. Luckily all we had to do was render files and everything was taken care of. Next, We had to add the photo of Christian from his days of playing Pop Warner football. We requested from his family that they send some childhood pictures but we only receive one. SIDE NOTE: I'm learning in this profession you have to work with peoples schedules and work with what you have. In this case we did! We were definitely grateful for the picture we received from his father.
After all the editing was done we were able to print to tape and burn to a DVD. Only problem we didn't have a new tape and no money to buy one. So we decided to just burn to a DVD. Luckily I brought 3 DVDs because the first DVD we burned all the way through there were lines throughout our whole Doc.
This was around 2:00am, we both agreed that we would burn another copy ourselves and see if the same thing happened. Kyle called me at 3:40am and OF COURSE! The same thing happened.
