Day 31, Psycho

Day 31 of the Emphatics Blog, Fayette Emphatic explores the horror genre and employs techniques from the master of horror, Alfred Hitchcock. Sorry for the blurry parts. I liked the idea of having my head floating in a black room/space but didn't realize the camera would have so much trouble focusing. If you look at the original Psycho footage, however, you will see that my film is not much worse. heh.

Day 30- Technology Hates Me

So. Here's the deal:
1. I (Aaron Emphatic) was supposed to post yesterday. I made plans to sit down at night and edit my video from Graduation. But leave it to my friends to screw that up completely. They drove me to a friend's house and threw me a surprise graduation party. I was stuck there until the wee hours of the morning without my computer and without a link to the internet. So no video yesterday.
2. Today, I sit down with my new camera and upload all of my footage. My camera saves files in mp4 format. I edit using Windows Media Player. WMP does not recognize mp4 format and won't allow me to edit a single video clip. fml.
3. I spend 2 and a half hours trying to download codecs and file format converters to remedy the situation. None of them work. (Well, the converters work, but take a lifetime to do even the smallest task...).
4. Conclusion to the story is that I need to go purchase better video editing software. One that will not ruin my life.

My next post will be a graduation post. I promise. Until then... a video that many of you have seen already:
The Modern Man.

Day 26- Matt's Love Life






Of course the funniest thing is that this whole post is made up, and in no way is based upon actual facts and/or events. It's all a wonderfully imagined world of fantasy and non-reality.
