Last Day

Jun 28, 2006 05:38

Well folks, today is my last day at Arvin Meritor. They've got me going out in typical Arvin fashion, working on some undesireable project until the very end. I can't complain though, there were several times throughout the six weeks that working at Arvin was realy enjoyable. Much like any job, it had its high points and its low points, usually ( Read more... )

haha...you're gonna love this shit.

today im doing some video capturing and editing work. Listen to the specs on this machine.

2.00Ghz P4 (No hyperthreading)
254 MB RAM
Onboard 64Mb Graphics...

Ha, I set it to do something simple, like delete 60 or so frames...I've got time to go brew a pot of coffee or somethign while its doing that. Sad.

what editing software are you using again? he's told me before but I can't remember. I think I do recall it being craptacular though..the same as the capturing software...

I used to do editing work a 'hoss' 1.4 GHz machine with onboard graphics and 256 MB of RAM. It was so awful. What're you capturing for? The MEMS? I thought he was waiting on me to get there to do that...

oh yeah, and since you're editing the video, make use of the star wipe, like one of those old school circa 1982 science videos we watched in Mr. Robison's classes.

I don't know why i'm writing this because you're in the next room, but do you use camtasia for video capturing... that's what my supervisor raves about here at CTLT... i think i'd like to try the macromedia one though.

Macromedia has video capturing software now? God I'm so out of the loop...All I know is Adobe stuff...but there was a company called Avis (?...maybe) that did some cool stuff that allowed renderless editing apparently. It may have been Avis..or something that sounded kinda like it. Either way, renderless editing= awesome.

oops, i meant screen capturing. macromedia's is called "captivate." i think thiede and cassidy just decided that rogers must use camtasia. weird that all this stuff goes on all over campus. it's a small university.

bill_adams June 29 2006, 15:10:41 UTC

Nope, rogers uses CapWiz. Well, for the MEMS work anyway...for anything else, I dunno.
