Geeky Minds

This week started off slow rather than the usual fast-paced life or week I'd have in my life. I'm still much focused on the whole Digital Story side of things. I have my audio and my pictures together but the whole software is giving me a problem to say nonetheless. I am not a huge fan of using this type of software that is not really user-friendly. I am trying to piece in everything bit by bit, and I hope it does go down quite well. The week has been catching up with me, it's escalated to Thursday already and I have yet to finish this project. I will hopefully get it done by the end of the week. That's basically been my week thus far except the whole issue with vacation is really one that interests me since we are not really on vacation through out these holidays.

Today was my first shoot for the Digital Media Studios at Information and Communication Services (ICS). The event was part of the ICS workshop in conjunction with other departments in the university that would include various executives of the university. The first problem we encountered was with regard to the lighting in the venue itself. The sound was also quite a problem in itself but somehow Tosin and Andre had it fixed in no time at all. Another problem I faced was the fact that I was falling half asleep the whole time, and that can not be blamed on me in particular but rather the exams and the content of the presentation that was being delivered at the seminar itself. Apart from all that, the seminar did kind of help as I was introduced to various topics and content that related to ITS itself, so it was not totally a waste of time. I learnt a lot things though at this firs shoot.
