Tom is a black hole of luck
(I have a theory that anyone near him gets their luck absorbed by him. NEVER have I known anyone to got out of so many presentations tests assignments skipping class etc. so well and so casually as he does. Things ALWAYS work out for him. So I think he's sucking the luck from everyone around him and fucking us all over. And as I spend more time around him than anyone...)
Why do I always wind up having the weirdest most unreasonable random problems with things? First my capture file refused to save to my external, just wouldn't copy over, other things would but the 4gb video file would get 99% done copying and THEN would decide that though the video played fine and all, something was wrong with the file and it couldn't copy.
Then my second exercise for class? Yeah. Refused to save as a quicktime file for me. Again, got partway through, then decided something was wrong with the SOUND, of all things. Nevermind that, again, it played just fine, and I hadn't done a thing with the audio from any file but turn it off. Tried for like an hour or so, tried again the next morning, on three different computers... so, Matt, that's why that project of mine is in another file format - that's all I could get to work. I searched the internet for solutions, only three people in the history of the internet have had that problem, and no-one knew what to do with it.
Now, for no reason at all, my after effects is being bitchy and won't ram preview things at all for me. Well, rather, it'll do the first 30 seconds of my video. Then just loops back and plays that for me over again. Moving the time indicator will get a bit less than thirty seconds from whatever spot I put it at rendered...at the expense of anything else that'd been rendered out, the lil green line just gets eaten up by nothingness and disappears.
I have no fucking clue.
Sooo we're just going to export this and see how it looks so far...
sigh.
