BANK HOLIDAY hard work

This is just a note, late-ish on Monday evening, to congratulate myself for doing quite a lot of 'research' over the past three days.

Not only did I attempt the tutorial exercises in the Help file of the animation software, but a friend lent me a book and using that I am at least a bit familiar with the layout of the page, and have a vague idea of what the different panels etc are used for. So I won't be totally at sea when hopefully I have a session with Mark on Thursday.

As for the ARCHIVE project, I ended up doing it by myself as I wasn't able to contact David W to help with the camera-work.

I mounted the two cameras on the two tripods, one zoomed in on where I would be showing things in my hands, the other set further back.

I have the footage loaded on to one of the editing machines, but the chances of me getting to use them for editing are slim, since I think they are all booked up for the week ahead.

Anyway, hopefully I may manage to borrow something to help me, maybe on Wednesday if not Tuesday.
A short week also - only six days till the work has to be mounted on Wednesday week.

We'll see how things go.
