So Close, But So Far Away!

So Close, But So Far Away!

So I was filming Episode 25 tonight (I find I function better when not under the influence of prescribed Codeine) – and was powering along and liking what I was doing. (Not to mention, filming Episode 22, 23, and 24 – I have been learning some tricks in NWN1 that I think is going to enhance things!) – anyway – as I am sitting there filming – suddenly Fraps stops capturing. And I can’t figure out what happening. Finally I ALT TAB out of NWN1, and get welcomed by a message where my computer is essentially screaming for mercy – because I only had 13 Megs of free space. Yes. Thirteen MEGs You see, Episode 25 has a lot of scenes in it. So now, with still a page and a half to film – what was I to do?

Well I ended up UNinstalling a lot of programs that I rarely used to make SOME room. Then I launched our convertion program of choice, which is River Past’s Video Cleaner and began converting the 60 scenes I had thus far shot. (Naturally not all the scenes make it – some are the same scene filmed from different shots, to either pull from both, or to see which ones comes out better kind of thing). Now if you have used Video Cleaner, you know the convertion process takes a very long time (the only downside really to the program, as it’s pretty nifty and has fixed corrupt videos I have had before).

So I am basically going to let that run all night, and all day tomorrow (and probably all night tomorrow). Then finish up filming on Saturday (even if it’s not done by then, there will be clips I can delete to make room for more filming).

(Of course, it doesn’t help that I burned ALL of my CDs onto my PC and have 38.8 Gigs of music…)

Just figured I’d give a wee update.

PS: As always, going to push the Youtube Channel we have these days.
