This week's progress report
Friday, May 29, 2009This week's progress report:
- Finished 'unstacking' and 'stacking'. Got through all The Lamb Powerpoint boxes (1,600 of them), and stacked on the racks. In the process 'attended' the NSBC Memorial Day Bible Conference.
- Tuesday, a fax came in regarding the quote for our Tabernacle Furniture Sets. Since the fax machine was broke in Canada, I got to oversee the signing / faxing / wire transfering a portion so they can get started.
- All this week I've been working on trying to finish up the Unlocking the Biblical Worldview (UBW) video series. This has been a long row to hoe, as I had it finished a week or so ago, but didn't like the quality of video I was getting. So I re-rendered the images to TIFF instead of JPG, and that helped a lot. Then, of course, you have to replace the footage in the videos w/ this, re-render to AVI, re-render to M2V, re-author the DVD. Not quite finished on this, but real close. Still have to make a few small Subtitle / Caption changes.
- Got UBW online, as well, as below! This player isn't the final output, but will work for the time being. Again, the quality of video was a concern, and ended up going through After Effects to F4V. Some would think it's tedious, I was just happy to get a higher-quality looking video.
- Duplicated 50 sets of Spanish and 50 English Stranger CD AudioBooks. That's 900 CD's...
- Vacuumed, took out the trash, answered some phones, packed on Wednesday, backed up server data for off-site storage (like every other Friday.)
- Figured out the Mac / Windows Bootcamp. I've been running Windows, but went to Mac to render some clips. In the process found out Mac won't write to a NTSC drive, so had to install something to get that going. But then it wouldn't boot back into Windows. Fun. Eventually got it figured out and so thankful I didn't have to rebuild my Windows box.
Writing this out doesn't sound like much... not sure why, because it took close to 60 hours.
