Notes:  Well, today is the 23rd and there are 32 days left in the year.  Interesting, or as Mr. Spock would say, “Fascinating!”  Big week ahead at work.  Would really like to get Don Mark on the advisory board, so I need to make a move ad make contact.  Looking at the Thrift Shop footage, Elaine made the following obervation, “TQ installs  an “ON” button for ministry, presses it, but never puts in the “OFF” button.”  Time to follow my “ON” button.


Focus for the week: 
  • Continue digitizing footage (front firewire input doing the trick (no dropped frames))
  •         Make contact with TQ
  •         Phone interview with Patrice
  •         Contact TQ
  •         Story arc work
  •         Get Don Mark on the Advisory Board
  •         Contact TYD to get the Web work done/restarted

Notes:  A good Saturday.  I hit all the “high notes,” and got in some theory (Karen Everett video), as well as some practice (digitizing footage).  Bonus is I was able to use Karen’s tape numbering system for logging.  Also determined that using the front Firewire port on the PC resulted in no dropped frames and no digitizing problems.
