I thought about how to best title James - but good eye on the spelling - I have his a different spelling of his name in my OUTLOOK and thats what I was going with
James is waffling about using a VJ name - I have been doing visuals at events with the man for 2 years and he is still fence sitting about it. He told me once that he was going by Sticky Green but has never confirmed The boy is at Uprising this weekend so I havent got any feedback from him yet as how he wants his name to appear
Its for this reason I separated the beginning credit screen from the rest - for ease of edit/changes after the fact
As far as the process Actually I dont paste the phrases in - I use the internal titler - and the drawback of that plugin is its lack of a spell checker - supremely powerful otherwise for dropshados, outer stroke, font sizes, kerning, leading, gradient overlays etc - yet it still lacks a spell check
titling design is usually the last step of a 7-9 hour edit and I dont have a proofreader or 2nd set of eyes to catch spelling mistakes as I am a visual person and I concentrate more on watching for video hickups, misplaced frames, graphic animation, general flow, audio levels and about 1000 other issues you have mixing 4 layers of audio with 7 tracks of video with colour correcting , effects and major transitions every 3 seconds.
So yes a spell check can get overlooked once in a H-while
I am sure you as a DJ can relate to this - someone comes up to you and tells you that your "crowd interaction" needs work when you are concentrating on track lists, BMP , beatmixing, beatcounting, timing, crossfading and lining up the next track.
But good call on the spelling thing - doesnt happen on the PAID projects and I think it was a combination of tired eyes, the excitement to get it done and published and posted plus all the other factors adOVe that the word "abOUve" got through into v1 (version1)
Once James gets back and I get his feedback I can make ALL the changes simultaneously (v2)
