Last moments in Cranford. I had to pack the last few things. I got help from everyone to move my stuff to the car (which was quite a lot xD) then I drove to work.
The day started good. An artist dropped by and he was so social and open. He also started talking to me. This conversation was less awkward then I was with the band on saturday. The guy was genuinely interested and that also helps me relax and talk more.
The man had a great voice! He sang one song that sounded Irish. His voice was perfect for that.
I didn't see much of his recording session: I worked on the same music video. This time I was halfway masking, but I found the masking generator tool which allowed me to mask it completely, only the downside was that it was in black and white. The supervisor walked by and said the black and white would fit. I was quite relieved because this meant I didn't have to continue the masking process. Instead I could now focus on other effects.
In the end I used a color curve and a colorcorrector. The colors differed too much from each other so I gave it a blue-ish color. Next to that I experimented with the rays and lights, but I will have to add that separately to the scenes I want to apply it too. Having it everywhere will get boring.
At the end of the day my supervisor watched it with me and said the titles weren't visible at the moment so I had to slide them before the song began and have a long fade in at the beginning of tge song. Also he would like me to focus on çutting to action' which basically means: Whenever there is a solo part I should cut closer to the guitar part to make it more interesting. I also had to remember that I shouldn't do long fades in the video and have two seperate tracks to avoid the lagging. Sadly it didn't help. The seperate tracks still lagged as much as it did before. I tried to render what I had so far, but the darn program crashed which lead me to running behind schedule. I left at 4 pm instead of earlier so I had less time to do grocery shopping. I hurried to my new room and unloaded the car. I quickly hopped in and drove to walmart. Unlucky me missed a turn as some ass was blocking my way with his truck. Didn't help I noticed the turn quite late. I drove through a whole new part of Lethbridge which was pretty, but it had me stressing. I arrived much later at Walmart and I had a long list to take care of. I got freakin lost in that huge store! Sure the veggies and meat was all together, but the pasta was hard to be found. I spent a half an hour in the store and had to pay a 100,- total which is not too bad as it included phone credits (of 25,-) but I was running late because my roommate would pick me up at 5.30 at the rental place! I also missed the right exit so I got stuck somewhere else xD The GPS didn't help either as he couldnt find number 3316, but could find 3315. The traffic lights were annoying me by turning red and the GPS led me drive in circles. Luckily I saw the rental place when I drove in panic past it and I arrived 25 minutes later. Right in time as the rental place closed in 5 minutes. My roommate didnt mind I was late as she was happy I at least got there in time.
She is so friendly and easy to talk to as well. When I arrived at the place she and her brother had to leave to a gaming night (boardgames) I was invited as well, but as I still had to eat and also maybe had work tomorrow and they would get home late I decided not to. I made wraps! and after that unpacked my suitcase. I noticed I missed some important stuff: Toilet paper and handsoap! Duh!
Aw well, tomorrow a new day ^^ Time to discover the west village mall.
