Focus, man

I've signed onto SO many different projects right now that I'm suffering from that "Don't know what to do first!" condition. I know there's lots to do, and that I have very little time to do it, but I honestly don't know where to start.

For one, my room is a mess, and so is my virtual room The iBook's full again, files littered everywhere. Even my Hackintosh is getting messy.

My mind is in a similar state. I have one project for UN1TE (maybe two? I have a feeling someone will be asking me to do another), a couple vids for a local deejay, a music video (?) for a local musician, and my "for fun" vlog project, which I started today (see my youtube page)

So, what do I want to do? Anything BUT edit video. And I think my Hackintosh headaches are closely related to this.


Good news, though - my work for Dance Manitoba is COMPLETE =)

iGeneration

Listening to the song "iGeneration" by MC Lars seems appropriate.

I'm still debating over the future of Job. The To Be Educated Vlog Project is on hold for a while. Right now I have bigger fish to fry.

I'm working on these videos for my dance team, UN1TE Dance Company. I'd been using my personal computer to edit, which was AGONIZINGLY complicated. I hopped a bus this morning and used my school's Media Lab (free of charge) to edit the new Youtube vids. I was amazed by the difference between the speed of Cornelius and the computer there (which I believe was called "Altman" - all the computers there are named after famous directors). I'm converted. I'll be going to school for my editing from now on!

After "iGeneration", iTunes plays "White Kids Ain't Hyphy". Another appropriate track (for a white hip hop dancer).

I'm not a total n00b

For years, I've been reading blogs and watching vlogs. I listen to podcasts. I subscribe to various websites. I'd like to think that I'm an active member of the blogging community. However, I've never had my own blog because I assumed that I wouldn't be able to commit to it. Even now, I think this may be an abandoned project.

But today I bought a camcorder from Advance. Having spent a large chunk of money on this thing, I think the best way to get good use out of it is to go ahead with my vlog project (that's been in the works for several months now). It's called To Be Educated, and it will be posted on my Youtube account very soon.

Hooray for a new beginning of my Internet life!
