Final Editing

Myself and Jordan have just spent all day in the Sound Production Suite, it got hotter and hotter all day long because we turned the noisy air conditioner off to record some sound, we couldn't turn it back on again.

Regardless of this fact we had a very productive and fun day, recording spot effects and creative problem solving. As for the former we had to pick up a couple of sounds we didn't think to record on set; envelopes rustling, door creaks, specific footsteps etc, nothing too major for the last day of editing.

As for the latter, we obviously expected to encounter some production issues and as such we were relatively prepared to do the pick-up spot sounds, as well as keeping in contact with each other regarding editing sequences that still needed sound; Alex edited together the green screen sequences in after-effects, whilst Jacob worked on the overall editing together of each sequence, whilst Jordan and I added the sound and equalised each track and Rob served as a go-between with each of us, transporting information, hard-drives, printing production documents off and generally being helpful.

Overall I am relatively happy with the work I have done within the group regarding editing the sound with Jordan; I believe we have pushed the envelope of what was expected of us by our peers, whom seemed to generally have the same amount or less work done than us, but were less concerned about their finished product; I even found that most valued getting the project done above getting the project done correctly, which I find ridiculous, a firm believer in the 'If something is worth doing, it's worth doing right" creed.

We have yet to export the project but we will all hopefully be in for 9ish tomorrow, which I doubt will actually come to fruition; possibly on my part, not being one for waking up in time for anything regardless of how important it may be to me. Turning off my alarm clock and my 6 alarms of my phone seems to have become more of a reflex than anything.

I digress, my point was that in order for me to stand a chance in getting up early to do more work, I must sleep excessively early. I bid you goodnight.
