Working (Try) Hard

Was working hard ... three full days on my intro and autro of my LP ... I don't think all that work I put into is visible.

In my cutting program it is ... added 10 new tracks to it and even more effects ...

Well, my trademark "TV" is now a 16:9 one.... and it has stereo now, too
(pictures at the end)
Making it less awkward to blend in my content....

It is now also 1080p.. which meant I had to redo almost every subpicture.
I recycled the Lamp and the knob as well as speakers, but I needed to at least adapt my Logo, redo all texts, backgrounds, all other icons / logos. Had to redo the placements of logos and other image parts.

In total it took a bit more than a day.

The screen border (that's the thing between the woody part and the glassy part) alone took me several hours, until it had the look I wanted.

I also had to partly redo my other image, which also serves (in it original state) as my Youtube channel background.

Then I had to export all parts as needed for the cut.

Finally I composed everything in Movie Studio, timed the animations, transitions, effects ...

And the result is that now in a few frames (less than a second) now my 16:9 content is in a 16:9 border ... well it is indeed longer now but you can't really see it, because of the effects distorting the image ... and those effects make it look more like an old TV...

Most of the time of every step took the fine tuning.

A quote of a former employer of mine:

"90% of the work take only 10% of the time, but the remaining 10% of the work take 90% the time."

And now I just need new content for it ... with that in mind ... I am off, producing more content now.

Note: New intro & outro  will be not seen before 13th of November 2014.

after: (blank template, ... kinda of blank)

Yeah ... finally! A new start

Yeah ... !

Hatte mich endlich entschlossen, nachdem mein stinkiges Schnittprogramm mich mal wieder im Stich gelassen hat, mir ein neues zu zulegen. ...

Nur welches habe ich mich gefragt. ...

Im Raum stand für mich das Sony (Vegas) und das von Adobe (Premiere) ...

leider sind beide teuer ... und eigentlich zu teuer für mich ...

Adobe würde mich ~25€ im Monat kosten ... und das nur im Jahresabbo, ... sonst wärs teurer. ...

Nun ja idR. ist es auch das was ich brauch (das Jahresabbo) ich produziere ja kontinuierlich, ... aber ich kann es nicht mal eben einsparen wenns Geld mal wieder knapp ist.

Und das Geld würd mir schon wehtun, wenn ich es jeden Monat berappen müsst ... immerhin sind meine Einnahmen bis jetzt 0 .. nothing .. nada .. niente .

Selbst im leeren Raum zwischen den Atomen ist mehr los als auf meinem Adsense Konto ....

Bei Vegas ist das Preisschild auf 299 € aufwärts (bis 498€ IMHO) ...

Auch das ist zuviel für mich. ... Die 300€ würd ich bestimmt irwie noch hinbekommen, ... aber ich glaubte ich bräuchte die nächst größere Version. Ein Irrtum wie ich feststellte.
Hab aber mir trotzdem die Demoversion gezogen ... diese entspricht der 299€ Variante.

Aber ich fand auf der Sonyseite noch ein Editorprogramm "für den Hausgebrauch" ...

Movie Studio!

Die Einfache Version ab ~37€, die bessere ab ~60€. Gibt sogar ne voll funktionstüchtige Demoversion ... Die entspricht der kleinen Variante. Hat aber keine Einschränkungen ... im Gegensatz zur Vegas demo die ein Logo einblendet ... zumindest habe ich noch keine Einschränkungen finden können ... vielleicht ist die Anzahl der Tage limitiert ... vielleicht die Anzahl der Aufrufe ... ich werd sehen ... so lange werde ich es ermal nutzen (Geld ist diesen Monat mal wieder klamm ... und wird wohl demnächst nicht besser werden ... stehen nämlich einige dringende Anschaffungen im Raum).
Den einzigen Unterschied den ich hab feststellen können bisher war: Es nervt einen am Ende das man es doch kaufen / seine Serienummer eingeben soll ...

Das heiße daran ist: Es basiert auf Vegas (nur ein paar professionelle Features fehlen) man kann aber zur Not auf Vegas upgraden ... besonders hart ist ... zur Zeit ist billiger erst Movie Studio zu kaufen und dann den Upgrade auf Vegas durchzuführen, als Vegas direkt zu kaufen ... man spart sich so nen 10er.

Aber es ist soooooooooooooooo viel besser als mein altes! ... Vom Workflow, ... über die Bearbeitungsgeschwindigkeit,  ... bis hin zum Rendern (sowohl qualitativ als auch von der Geschwindigkeit) alles ist einfacher, schneller, zuverlässiger, einfach besser ...

Einen Nachteil gibt es jedoch ... viele der besonderen Vorteile sind standardmäßig deaktiviert und man muss sie erst von Hand an stellen ...
Warum das so ist?  Ich hab keine Ahnung ... eventuell sind die in Vegas automatisch an ... so das man eher versucht ist Vegas zu kaufen... aber das alles ist reine Spekulation...

Wie auch immer ... hab endlich angefangen wieder LP zu produzieren ... mit dem alten Programm war das einfach zu viel Arbeit ... 10h / Episode... nun brauche ich grad mal 5-10 min jeweils für den Schnitt..., Rendern dauert extra ... aber auch das ist schneller ... 32 min für die 15 min Episode im Gegensatz zu 1-2h mit dem alten Programm (das im übrigen auch 55€ kostet) ...

Im Kalender werde ich nun alle fertigen Episoden eintragen... Täglich lange Lifestreams sind aus gesundheitlichen Gründen nicht so gut ...

G+ article Linklist

Soon the G+ Post will hit here edit: (didn't worked)
I made a G+ post here, so I am going to add the related link list in this post.

G+ Post:

After seeing another new early access game (Beasts of Prey) I have to say.

Oh! Minecraft, what have you done?

I might be one of the first that admits that Minecraft created a new genre of its own. The mining and creating one.

Minecraft created huge impacts of game landscape.

1st was that many retro games came out. And people had to admit that a good game will still be a good game even with 8bit graphics. Sometimes not concentration on graphics made better game play happen. And state of the art graphics does not mean that the game is good.

2nd all those minecrafty games that came out. Like Space Engineers, 7Days2Die, Beasts of Prey, Planet Explorers and many many more. If you like not only crating things but also to work for your resources... than you have to check out those games.
Many of them are not only available on steam!

3rd Early Access games. I mean it was one of first games that said: Look we have something here you can already play around with but its nowhere near finished. But if you are willing to support us with your money we might create something really great. And so it happened and still happens for (Minecraft*)  Kerbal Space Program, Planetary Annihilation, Viscera Cleanup Detail, Kenshi, Starpoint Gemini 2, Dex, and again many many maaaaaany more.
And it is honest. And to be honest many of those games have less bugs in each version than many games,I played, which claimed to be final. Those "final" games where indeed often final, means that those game breaking bugs never got fixed. And I was left on with a game (I often cry when I think about them) I can say about "This would be a great game if it not were for bug XYZ which totally ruins it".

The other great thing about early access games is you buy one game ** and a few month later it has so much new content its like a total new even better game (except for 7Days2Die ... which lately got worse with each version)


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Footnotes:

*= Yeah that's right, aside of that Minecraft long reached version 1.0 it is still in development as it was before 1.0... Nothing has changed. It still adds tons of content. And each new version is still buggy as hell. They put a lot of wasted effort in to prevent that.. testing tons of build on the way ... testing the final version a few times ... just to realize that released version has some major bugs and a fix soon follows after...
And its still slow as ever and needs the still needs Optifine mod to run well.

**=And I can't remember one game of them which wasn't above average. While many "final" games I bought was like "Meh! no fun all." (Total different from what the ads promised me) which shows up in my statistics as only a few minutes of total play time.

I probably have to edit this text a few times since G+ still didn't managed to include a decent text formatting. Which already was, like more than 10 years ago, available for any dumb forum software.

List of games mentioned:
Google them ... I made a link list here, but G+ seems to have a stick in the lower south half and blocked it ... "against community guide lines" but didn't told why or what specific. Its like being called to court and the judge slams the law code on your desk and says: "You are sued cause you have violated against something in here" 

Kerbal Space Program: Google da link ... but I still recommend it
(Check that one out. I mean for real. What better recommendation is there for a game that I for myself have already played more that 1100 hours that game alone. And I am not the only one. Many fans have played even more and I wouldn't wonder if someone soon hits the 10k hour mark. Outside of steam it also DRM-Free available.)

Edit: Since deleting the link list hadn't any effect on the post, I had to re-post it without. And it worked .. probably I could now add it in without any negative impact.

Fight the power

According to German laws* I didn't had a Program Schedule and was sending on a whim.

Well it is true that our government is aware that those Laws are outdated, so it isn't that enforced, but nevertheless it still exists.

Anyway I have decided to go more pro and so I starting to sending on one. But I am not really diligent nor reliable nor motivated so it might happens that I sometimes skip.

Maybe I would if I got payed for that, but then (as soon as the 1st penny rolls in) I need to do it as full blown business.
And that is also time consuming and complicated. And the Tax Office understands no jokes, as in sending you strait to jail for less than a buck.

Here you will find my schedule (if there is any)

*= Theoretically I would need to acquire a TV broadcast license.
Which is time consuming expensive and complicated.

Can you tell the difference?

I was like, oh that has to be that way,
... but after I carefully thought about it...
I came to the conclusion that it isn't necessary and only cause trouble...

Anyway here are two pictures, can you exactly tell what is different?

Anyway please take part in this Survey.

Steam // AR-Drone news

Finally hocked up my official  Youtube account to steam... while I was at it I was reminded of something.


There won't be any new AR-Drone Videos anytime soon, cause I ruined my one and I haven't enough money at hand to get a new one anytime soon. And to be honest it never worked like I wanted to...

The winds are horrible here and it get constantly blown into houses, trees, the ground ... It never  like to stay still even indoors... maybe it was a faulty one ...

When I finally have enough money saved up (there are so much other things I can spend money on) I will eventually buy a new one. And the old one will stay as source for repairs..
