February 2010 Update

2010-02-15T13:34:00.001-08:00

I apologize for taking so long to update my blog (it has been since October), SORRY. Since last October I have taped one wedding and edited it, taped a CHS play and a Christmas play for Bethel Church and edited both. I am in the process of converting my editing systems from pc to Mac. This is turning out to be a hugh undertaking but I feel for the better. There is a short learning curve and the cost of the computer and software. Hopefully, when everything is up and running this will mean shorter production times and -0- system crashes. Currently working on the CHS All Sports banquet video winter sports tapings.
Next big video project will be the CHS Spring musical "Guys and Dolls" at the Jr High auditorium the end of March.

I am writing this blog from the world famous Opryland Hotel in Nashville, TN. We are down here for some r&r with our Farmers Insurance fellow agents and district manager. Also, met up with my high school buddy, Tom Huebel and his wife Barb. Barb prepared a fabulous meal for us yesterday and they both showed us around Nashville that afternoon. We took in the General Jackson Riverboat cruise that evening with the Farmers bunch. Just a great time!

Since my last post I have been to Vegas for the National Association for Photoshop Professionals called Photoshop World. This was a great event! It was fun and also a great learning experience. To be able to meet and learn from the best photographers and photoshop people in the world was a blast.

In the coming weeks, I will be in St Charles, MO videoing a wedding and also will again be videoing the Bethel Assembly of God Christmas program in early December.

Editing

Well, Photoshop World Conference is about 2 weeks away. I will be attending the bi-annual show for the first time. I am looking forward to learning and observing photographers from all over the world at the Vegas convention.
This week I am working on a photo montage for a 40 year mother. Using several software programs to come up with the video montage. Scanning and editing photos in photoshop is a very time consuming procedure but is a must if you want the montage to look sharp and standout. Also, I have been shooting video of the fall sports at the local high school. The booster club has an all sports banquet at the end of the school year and I provide the video highlights for the program. Thats all for now,
Catch you next Friday!
