#168 Summer Vacation

Here's a short explanation of the past three months Projects I finished a corporate promotional video for an integrated circuit manufacturer in Massachusetts. I partnered with Lou Goodman and we worked together shooting and editing the video. And I completed a 30 second commercial for the living history museum, Plimoth Plantation. Even as I continue to look for a full time video gig I'm still volunteering my time to shoot and edit video for my former school, Boston University Center for Digital Imaging Arts Plans Everything always takes more time that you think but I'm committed to learning how to maximize Worpress so I can transfer the Video StudentGuy site over to a self hosted Wordpress site with it's own domain. I want to develop a daily blog, add a number of interactive features and introduce video and still images. Once I've got that nailed, I'll move on to producing a portfolio site I continue to do audio production for another Podcast - The Post Movie Show I'm working on a series of screencasts demonstrating how to edit in FCP using mostly keyboard commands. I hope to turn my experiences into a presentation at some of the podcamps I've listed below. Events PAB10 Ottawa - great show and great people. What can you say about those Canadians except they're so nice! DSLR video events through Avid, Rule and FCPUG. Lots of buzz about that I need to spend a show talking about that. Podcamps Boston, NH, CT and Montreal in September and October Montreal - Sept 11 & 12 Boston - Sept 25 & 26 Connecticut - October 16 New Hampshire - October 23 & 24 I'll be attending an introduction to Wordpress workshop at the Microsoft NERD Center in Boston Monday August 30. It's closed, but there's a presentation later that evening also at the NERD, courtesy of the Boston Wordpress Meetup Group on how to insert video into Wordpress
