The first part of the whole post-production process would be to capture the DV tape footage into digital format. We booked a computer at the MDL today just for this purpose.
Digitizing is simple but it takes a lot of time. Especially when we have 4 DV tapes to convert. We have 3 and a half tape worth of footage from the hidden camera in the corner, and half a tape of actual footage for our CNM video.
We sat in the lab for very long...
..converting..
...converting...
It was a very simple but painful process because we could do nothing but watch the footage run in real time.
Then, we had to get a copy of the video out of the computer only to realise that it stands at 20gb per file.
I decided to borrow my brother's 250bg hard disk drive and return the next day to get the video.
I never knew a video file could be this huge.
Tomorrow is the actual start of the editing. My group is quite worried about the deadline so we decided that we would stay over night in school on Friday just to do more editing.
