Vidding, Vidding,Vidding
Apr. 4th, 2011 08:22 pmSo I've got this computer that's old as dust. It's my vidding computer. I made all my vids on it. Yes, that's right, I've had this computer for 7+ years. And it's a DELL. Thanks to my having tech savvy friends this computer has lived long, long past its expected shelf life, but it's time for it to go.
My dad has been kind enough to pass me down his very nice less than 3 year old Mac, which will no doubt make a very fine replacement. No, I have no intention of becoming a mac vidder -- I'll be installing XP on it. I've tried Final Cut Pro. I like Premiere and my stockpile of open source software better.
But before I get rid of the dinosaur I have to finish two vid projects. So cross your fingers for me guys. Half an hour in and I've already had to do a system restore because no audio was transmitting to my headphones.
But OMG!
You don't know how awesome it's going to be vidding on a (relatively) new computer. I'll be able to complete a vid without Premiere crashing over 70 times. You don't know how much I wish that statistic was exaggerated.
In other news:
I resisting the urge to make an Uther Pendragon/Troll Queen vid to "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri and re-title it "Jar of Farts."
It's probably a good thing I didn't give into temptation and outbid![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mpoetess for Cappy in the VVC auction.
Y'all dodged a bullet, there.
I'm also resisting the urge to procure Smallville mpreg vids for my constructed reality vidshow. Yes, there's more than one. SOMEONE TALK ME OUT OF THIS RIGHT NOW. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH PAIN I CAN INFLICT IN THREE QUARTERS OF AN HOUR.
