Hooray!!!!!!

Someone actually did the Saturday kitchen pot washing shift. I'm actually going to be able to finish my shift this morning in under two hours. OMG. This is like the best Sunday EVAR.

You know, now that I can, I'm contemplating making two versions of my vid and possibly splicing in the pan n' scan version in parts when I want a zoomed in shot, like I did for my Firefly vid.

I think I might be a little drunk on power.

I'm also wasting time. Gah! Pot washing! Then Premiere.

Grrrrr! Aaaaargh!

So, like, I thought the hardest thing about making fancy fast cut effects heavy vids was, like, learning how to do them.

No, no. I was wrong. For apparently the hardest thing is dealing with Adobe Premiere 7.0's constant seizures.

OMGWTFBBQ?!?

I'm playing my vid in the preview window and all of a sudden random black spaces appear where before there were clips. I close the project and re-open and yay! The black spaces have disappeared! Only I find out that they have in fact not disappeared, but moved to another part of the vid.

So I export my vid to make sure there are no shady black spaces in the export. Thankfully there aren't. I'm good as long as it's exporting properly, right?

Except wait. Now that I think about it, having to export my vid so I can see what it looks like completely defeats the purpose of having a preview window!!!

::throws tantrum::

This is on top of the fact that for reasons I cannot fathom, I can't render clips without putting at least two keyframes on them.

First I couldn't render them. Now I can't watch them without exporting.

And I was being nice this time! I'm only on 4 tracks! I'm mostly playing with internal motion so I have, like two effects in the whole vid not including opacity handles. WHY THE HATE?!?

Also, I'm only, like half done. Probably because I didn't get to start till yesterday. That and troubleshooting. Goddamn motherfucking troubleshooting. Poo. Poo I say.
