Week 31: 27 July – 2 August 2020

Another week that passed so quickly that I feel I didn’t really do anything.

Except finishing the final cut! As in the cut, not the colour grading or sound level adjustments. I didn’t like how the editing started to linger, which can happen when there is no deadline. So S said today that Friday next week was my deadline. Good! Last fixes coming up!

I also seem to remember being immersed in various animations. Creating them, that is. Actually I started watching Evangelion 1.0 twice but ended up returning to Clip Studio Paint.

We discussed another rough cut in the Editing Forum on Tuesday, the only class I’m taking.
