Blog 10--Final project

I liked the idea of a sort of "director's commentary", and I also liked the idea of showing the companions in chronological order. Being a hardcore Dr. Who fan, it never really occurred to me that people wouldn't know that Romana comes after Sarah Jane. I could see how that would easily get confusing for people. So I think I'm going to start working on my script for the director's commentary, and finish up putting the clips in place.

I can't believe how difficult it was getting any of the clips off of the DVD's. The part that is really frustrating, is that I wasn't able to get all of the clips that I wanted because it was IMPOSSIBLE to tell what was what. Everytime I would try and load consectutive files through itunes to see what clips they were, the computer would freeze for a good (seriously) 20 minutes. Once I finally found the clips and put them in imovie, the program would crash if I tried to do anything with the clips too soon. I crashed imovie 9 times in a row before finally calling it a night. I tried to do the album preview of the clips so I could at least see a little bit of what was going on, and that sort of worked, exept then I couldn't tell what was director's commentary, special features, or the actual show. I ended up with a lot of weird and random clips that I won't be able to use =( This whole process has been very frustrating, and the real bummer is that I'll have to get some of my clips from youtube anyways.
