this old dan

All gone new these days I tell ya. During the middle of DON'T STOP it occured to me just how many unfinished videos i had on the drives. LIttle bits here and there, waiting for that final edit. One in particular, the hybrid piece had been bugging me for awhile now. What do you do with 4 hours of footage? Cut together a real monster garage episode? No cant do that, didnt get enough dialogue or stationary shots, not to mention I really wanted road footage.

Ya road footage, I'm yerning for road footage. Anyways an edit like that, some 30min episode would just kill me time wise. So as usual, the daunting task of how to handle it, turned into mass procastoration on my part. That and the fact for some reason the installed xpress dv on my end here at home likes to crash randomily.. and sometimes you can do a shit load of editing between auto-saves.

With DON'T STOP in the can and on the net, yes and in all its rough glory, I wanted it that way really. I turned my sights on the hybrid piece finishing off the elements and solidifying the concept. What I have now I like alot. It flows good, grooves on and yes I'm still missing road footage but I'll forgo the need for that right now.

On a completely seperate note.. i think my arm is four feet long. Thats 4' man.. 4 frickin feet. I know it should be three but it feels four.

Ya know in editing Hybrid Garage I found that Todd is actually a good speaker on camera. The camera likes him alot. Todd go into communications man, I could see you hosting sports or something.

One of the other obsticles on the hybrid piece was lack of web findable high rez images of the insight. Like something big, 640x480 and up. Not much out there. Bigger the better really, cause effect wise I can do more with that.
