Earlier I said I would go to the park to do some work. Well I got to the park and then it sort of dawned on me my main bit of work (work as in not working at the hotel bar work) is… editing.
Managed to read a few chapters of my book and then I went back to edit.
The problem with having a good rig to edit on, is that StarCraft 2 running at full spec is only a click away. Grumble.
Edit is cool, I’ve just been watching all the footage and ordering and then marking it up for the edit really. I have been so busy at placement I haven’t been able to get cracking. I think tomorrow in the day I will make a sizeable dent.
It’s a music video for a band called Beasty Traps, cool bunch of guys. Helping out some friends with the edit - it’s nice to work with good footage though. Should be a great video when all is done.
Hotel bar work is alright, after a six week hiatus as I finished up placements. It was nice to come back and have people remember me and ask where I have been. Even though I was only working there for two or so months? Nice to earn a few pennies. I’m also going to be taking half of my work earnings and putting them straight in to a savings account. I am also going to be a lot more frugal. No more impulse buys.
No idea for my minor piece yet. Blimey. I know that I will probably produce a very short, very simple little drama piece. Unless a documentary opportunity comes up and slaps me in the face. Doubtful.
Feeling alright, hope I can juggle work with these running jobs around the country. Technically I work for zero hours contracted. So if I can’t/don’t want to work I don’t have too. But I’d rather always say yes to work otherwise I get pushed off the list. I also have been off for ages, so not too good. I can work weekends easily and one of the weeks is quite empty so I should be able to juggle it.
Been playing StarCraft 2, really loving it. But I can see where the skill comes into play. Skill which I have none of. It’s not like FPS, you can’t get lucky. I reckon in online play I would get decimated. I shall wait to a few of my friends are up and running and play them over Vent, way more fun.
Talk soon.
Woke up and played Starcraft 2 for like four hours… one of those days.
Going to head to the park to do some work, get some sun on me.
