Unfortunately my dad left the camera on because it was on when I got it out a while ago and the battery is now completely dead, so I didn't import any footage today. But when I find my charger and bring the camera in with a full battery, I'm confident that I'll finally be able to get this project started, because today I had everything I needed. Next time!!! Actually I plan to come in during reach or my free period on Monday because I was really excited about this.

Daily Objective

I brought my camera and have the deck and the proper cables to import (as of now) so hopefully i can import footage successfuly. The only problem is the camera has low battery power and I don't know where my charger is so we'll see how long it lasts today.

daily objective

i forgot my camera at home so i guess i'll just mess around with livetype and make some cool titles.

I found it. So next time I can get started.

Daily Objective

To find the cable that will enable me to connect my camera to the deck, which will let me import footage from my camera into the mac.

Daily Objective

Today I can hopefully import footage successfully import footage from my camera to final cut express using the deck, which i will need to borrow from the library. Hopefully I will figure out how, because I know it will work, but I remember from last year that it's really complicated, so we'll see what happens today.

My camera doesn't save the footage to a tape. It has a hard drive where all the shots are stored. I recently got a 1gb memory card for it so now the shots will be going onto that. But I would like to see if i can get it to work with the deck first, because we did last year. even though my camera doesn't use tapes, it has certain outlets that this computer doesn't that allows my camera to import shots onto a mac.

and I'm gonna try and make several titles with different, unique designs and transitions (with what i have to work with) using livetype.

Daily Objective

Learn what the required formats for importing video are so I can hopefully import footage from my camera to the school's computer. I don't remember how I did it last year, but I had Alec's help and we used the deck, so I'm thinking that's the only way to do it.

was unsuccessful with the capturing of my footage. I used a USB which didn't work and a firewire doesn't fit. But I think I can get it to work if i have that video deck - that huge thing that allows you to put the tape from a camera in separately. That's kind of the last option anyway.

Daily Objective

Today I plan to upload some video of an interview and some dryland snowboard training footage (skateboarding, tramp, bridge jumping, etc. Editing this footage today will be limited, because I plan to get more footage of these things, and only want to start cutting when i have all the shots for that scene that I need.
