Podcasts and... something else I talk about that begins with "P"
Nothing kills productivity quite like BBC 7 repeating the Eighth Doctor audio plays. I never even finished Shada last time it was on, so that's something to look forward to.
For the first time in a while, I've come across a post topic that I think is going to take more time to properly write than I have available to me. I might have been able to do it if I hadn't spent a good 20 minutes showing my dad several Weird Al music videos on YouTube. I'll have to try to get that post done for tomorrow, since it relates to Wikipedia's 2 millionth article and thus will seem more out of date and irrelevant as time goes by. Much like my father, who inspired the thoughts I plan to outline in it.
Anyway, to satiate your no doubt boundless hunger for some of my creative genius, and also any hunger you may have for incoherent sound clips, bad audio editing and movie trailer background music, I present this:
The trailer for Series 2 of the VersusCOM podcast!
I think I mentioned this a couple of days ago, but I can't be bothered checking, so here's the story. Sam and I were intending to make an episode of the podcast when he was round at my house last. We left it too late but, acting on the advice of my brother James, we decided to make a movie-style trailer. We recorded some random sound clips and I stuck them on to a fairly generic background track to produce what you can hear above.
This isn't necessarily the final form of the trailer, but I rather like the way the speech and music line up so I'm rather reluctant to change anything else. That said, I still have several minutes of recorded speech that I never got round to using, so this may not be the final version. Incidentally, the voices you can hear are myself, Sam and Erin with James providing some ridiculously good ad-libbed narration.
I guess I should probably be focusing on recording the actual podcast rather than worrying about the trailer, but that's just the way I am. Deal with it.
Speaking of editing, I still have some Superman 64 footage that I've been meaning to edit, so I might get some of that done tonight. Depends on when I go to bed, which might be fairly early. Last night, it seemed like I was just drifting off and closing my eyes when my alarm clock went off. I can't tell if that means I slept really well or not at all.
I'll need to practice video editing for the short 5-10 minute film I'm considering recording. I think I can make it fairly practical and funny without needing too much in the way of work or complicated effects or editing. Which is good, because I don't like any of those things. I'll work on the script some more tomorrow and see how that goes. May never get done but I've mentioned it to a few friends who seem interested and inspiration struck me during a free period today, so I actually have a decent sized chunk scripted, in addition to the standard complex plan in my head.
That's all I've got for tonight. So...
Have a nice day.
