Media 101

Working in Media is rewarding and frustrating, it seems at times the most reliable piece goes nut - the computer - at the most inconvenient time, not that there is a convenient time. I had an issue last Sunday with our video announcements. Our video announcements are typically 3 minutes or less in time. We were unable to render out the video to DVD, an error occurred, “File too big for DVD” yea right – the file is barely a half gig. Needless to say a lesson should be learned from this. You should be prepared well in advanced for an event – only thing done the day of is pre-production check list. Even when it comes to computers, a routine task the team performs flawlessly several times a week- the day of production the computer goes bananas. An embarrassing and uncomfortable feeling, you would agree?
