I've never listed all my little tasks.. and I know it's going to be staggering.
Ah might as well give you guys an idea really on how much I do for each video and why it takes 2-3 weeks given my little free time.
I've got to kill time as this new video uploads anyway! :yay:
In the order I do everything:
-Scout locations and animations / poses
-Select and schedule volunteers
-Sometimes meet with them 1 on 1 beforehand and inspect
-Shoot the video and take snapshots for the website
-Backup the typically 45 gigs of footage on my other hard drive
-Drop the footage in Vegas and crop out workable clips (this is the only boring part that makes me x.x sometimes)
-Spend at least half an hour finding the right music (I can't figure out music until after a video is shot really)
-Sequence the workable clips (the really fun part :D)
-Add transitions, clean things up and do the final render
-Upload the WMV
-Use downloadhelper to DL the converted MP4 version
-Upload the MP4 to Mhisani's server and Megaupload
-Photoshop the updated Header, new icons, the new hall of volunteer portraits and website splash image
-Write in the new code in hov.html, vi.html, videos_secondlife.html, box_newsfeed.html, and rss.xml
-Announce the video on the SL group (and the forum now)
-Eventually select out picture stills from the raw footage and run them through photoshop
-Upload the images and enter the new code for pics_highlights.html
wow, that's a lot of work...but it's worth it though, all your videos are amazing ^^
