Thanks! Been a hell of a run so far. But it gives me an excuse to play with some new ideas to make dubbing more elaborate. Well it kind of has a similar set up as Final Cut Pro, but not at the sametime. I had the guy I work with in my office who's in charge of marketing kind of familiarize me with some tools that are on Final cut Pro and similar to Avid. So I'm getting use too editing already and title overlays. What bums me out right now is I can't seem to look at the preview screen while I'm doing text titles which I size up as subtitles. So each subtitle I do I have to resize and set the right fonts again and again versus having a specific layout function. I've tried but it didn't work. Right now it took me an hour to do the first 15 seconds between Exadore and Breetai. It's mainly getting the timing of the subs correctly. But I'm also syncing it to the Japanese text NOT the audio. Which will be a smarter move.

Things have been kind of interesting lately. November I was promoted, now I'm a videographer/photographer....new line of work for this place I'm working at. It'll make me travel to 5 different stores to take photos for their inventory. And right now they're wanting to do videos that are about 2 minutes long, I'm trying to convince them to 30 seconds, like a commerical. 2 minutes is boring as hell TL:DR Anyways, this is going to require me to get software appropriate for what I need to do. They had a guy from KGW a news channel here in oregon come by and look at what I got to work with and he made some suggestions. Today I'm working on a trial version of Avid Studios he recommended cause that's what the station uses for their broadcasts. So far I'm kind of liking it and the best part right now is it's so damn cheap! I can pick up a copy at FRY's for 130 bucks! if this works out well I might purchase my own copy and use that next month when doing the final touches to the video.

I'd like to see him a lil more upclose so you can really see the mesh.

production halt till i get new VA's for the smaller roles lined up. Sent an email to a lot of people, let's see if I get results.

And th ere the movie was summed up perfectly in 2 minutes and saved so many people the hour and a half or so of crappy movie making. I never fast forwarded through a movie as much as I did Robogeisha and STILL understood what was going on.
-
at least the first half of this season ended in a way I had hoped. Would of hated all the waiting until February to get answers.

The mecha in Unicorn do not look CGI'ed like what Frontier did.
-
I think the animation is much more top knotch than what Frontier did as Frontier relied to much on CGI whereas Unicron does not. I have a stronger appreciation of drawn versus wireframe.
-
wow, I think you guys are seriously gonna flip over this new audio. It's really good!
-
The SFX mix I believe is finished. But something disturbing I've noticed is that the older sfxs I used are right channel/mono only, so I'm having to do some tricky editing to try and make it balance correctly. If I can get that area finished, I can probably do a final mix of the music cause it doesn't seem like Cristina is going to get back to me about the minmay score and I'll have to go and use the originals. Which isn't bad, you guys don't care But it would feel alot more english authentic the other way around wouldn't it? I still need I think 3 Male's and 1 female for Zentran/meltran recordings so I'm going to hammer at those I gave lines too and see wtf is up. Some have had lines since the summer.

I was doing some test audio and looking things over and man there's some work that needs to be done. Like bits and pieces of the voice overs don't seem loud enough, and I hadn't even done alterations for certain things either! so I'll have to bump that up which is very easy, just time consuming. Music score without minmay songs are pretty good, don't need much adjusting really, maybe tone it down just a bit. The videos I rendered look good, but my PC is stupid and wont properly show me the higher res. But each encode I did came out as 10 gigs. TEN GIGS. Wooooaaaaaah.....but that's also straight up mpeg format for highest quality versus stuff like WMV. I mean, yikes.
-
Oh god no, that's impossible. I'll never have the original tracks unless I either get the best audio equipment available or Bandai gives me the rights cause I'm awesome. Both sound very unlikely in the end don't it? It just means that I now have a way of including the footage to whatever video resolution I want. Right now I got it I think 1024x640 Which is pretty big! I also got it in a richer 720x480 and I'll be comparing the sizes when they finish encoding by the AM.
-
Gotcha, I see Che sent me something about it but I'm dumb and don't look at my messages sometimes. Great news though! I got master DVD files for the HD version of DYRL! It's a freaking 8 gig VTS file so it'll need conversion to a usable codec which wont be difficult to do at all! And once software is in, I'll be making final corrections to the audio except music score cause I still wanna talk too Cristina about having time or not to do english minmay singing or stick to the original japanese. Either or is fine by me and I'm sure you guys wont mind either or since there's approval for cristina to sing.

is it just me or does ironman....not look so metal like anymore? like you know that's a plastic/foam/rubber suit.

Sorry been behind, the new position at work puts me infront of a computer for 9 hours of my life and somehow the last thing I really wanna be doing is being infront of a computer at home for another 4 or 5! weird isn't it? I got a 4gig thumb drive, but it's my movie watcher so I don't have to sit infront of my laptop all the time to watch my shows, it's also got some other stuff I need tucked away just in case. I'll have to hold out for a lil while longer

Caught episode 4, it was a good if a bit to drawn out.
-
Well, I just got my Laptop back from the shop after having a very nasty virus in it. This started shortly after getting Vegas 11...so the program is gone.
-
Damn, missed lastnights episode my new schedule has irked me in ways I can not yet comprehend at this time
-
Cool! so with a slow weekend I accomplished a crap load of stuff AND I got Sony Vegas 11. GAME ON!
-
Ok, I've made accomplishments! big ones too! While waiting around I decided that I have enough Zentraedi vocals I can do a set without having to worry to much about the male extras. I even found out I'll need a new female extra for the Meltrans on the ship shortly after Miriya and Max had their big fight. I really need to talk to cristina, see if there is some way I can get her to sing the songs that EXO provided english lyrics for and make the movie 100% english. People kind of seem to enjoy it a lot more after hearing her do the main song of the film.
-
Hm wonder why i didn't notice that oh well. Well, I got nothing, still waiting on ppl for recordings....it sucks to wait.
-
I liked the demo but at the sametime I felt sort of clustered. I dunno if that's right or not for a feeling towards playing a game. Like it's just to damn busy!
-
Knew Shane would do that when push came to shove. But man I hope he gets his very soon.

If cartoon network pulls off a lot of what the Hub did, stopping a series midway for several weeks at a time, release a few episodes then stop for a few more weeks you'll lose a lot of interest and be irritated by the fillers along the way. This happened for me on transformers prime and nearly forgetting a new episode would even be on! They've got enough episodes to show for 6 months at a 1 week airing basis yet drag it on. the smart move was to get toys out while the show airs to help interests, hasbro sure doesn't do that.

it's got an ok feel to it but it still reeks of SEED. but I'm also getting a tad bit of a V Gundam feel from it too. Anyone notice Yurina i think is her name looks and sounds an awful lot like Shakti?
