Before I start I'd just like to say I've been getting a lot of people asking me to do voices for their animations and I think I should say I only really get involved with things that I personally think is a good idea and are animated to a good standard. So if you can sell your idea to me and tell me the role you'd like me to play instead of telling me you'd like me to do a voice for you and give me no details of the role, I'm not gonna do it. I would like a script or a link directly to the script so I dont have to find it and a description of how you want the character to sound... Cos those things are helpful you see
NOW!...
Some of you may already know that I was temping as the Junior Video Editor at the eco site Greenvoice which if you dont know its an online platform for supporting various camaigns that are eco friendly.
Well they suddenly decided to give me a Job... A paying job, I'm now Media Content Editor of Greenvoice. I feel all official. I make £7.50 an hour and work a maximum of 40 hours a week (minimum 10 hours) HOW GREAT IS THAT!
My years of college that actually went to nothing... DIDNT.
I now have my own MacBook to edit the videos on instead of borrowing Hazels, how I loath the MacBook! Obviously built to look good as it has yet to surprise me with its ability to compress a video to smaller than 1 gig.
I have my own desk now, well technically I had since I started but now its definatly my desk. Im glad there are a lot of plugs in the desk too as there is alot I need plugged in all at once sometimes such as the Mac, Bob the 300 Gig External Hard drive and my personal laptop which I tend to use if I need something animated or to do something the Mac cant... Like... Be more practical than it is good looking.
Which brings me onto my small list of Programs that are on my CV and that I can help you people with if you are stuck or need tutoring on... I mean come on, I DID teach my Flash tutor how to use Flash... So Flash obviously, Xara X1, Adobe Premier, Adobe After Effects, Wave Pad which I use for my audio recording and now Final Cut Pro for you mac users out there
Any problems with them, I'm right here
I love being the person who knows
*sigh* I hate me...
