| See [[AMD Geode/Video 1/Script]] for a textual description of the video.
| | Footage was shot with my Pentax K-5 from November 21 2021 through November 30 2021. |
| | |
| Because of prolonged production time I released what I had so far as part 1 before starting with part 2.
| |
| | |
| Footage was shot from November 21 2021 through November 30 2021. | |
| | |
| Editing was done from December 2021 through February 2022.
| |
| | |
| == Mistakes ==
| |
| Overall I made the following mistakes during production:
| |
| *I didn't write a script
| |
| *I didn't film any usable B-roll
| |
| *I didn't make any kind of time for interjections
| |
| *There's no soft transitioning between scenes
| |
| *I didn't lock exposure on a bunch of clips
| |
| *I didn't white balance clips properly
| |
| *I didn't know what type of clips I needed in advance
| |
| *I didn't even know what type of video I was making
| |
| | |
| == Achievements ==
| |
| As a counter to mistakes, here's some things I did do well:
| |
|
| |
|
| * I filmed enough stuff to get the video done
| | Editing was done with Kdenlive 19.12 from December 2021 through February 2022. |
| * The video doesn't require a technical background to understand
| |
| * Listening doesn't lose important details
| |
| *I finished it
| |
|
| |
|
| == Audience feedback ==
| | (That's assuming I finish this month.) |
| After release and during production I generally got the following feedback:
| |
|
| |
|
| * People liked the cat
| | Because of prolonged production time I'm going to release what I have recorded so far as part 1 before I start with part 2. |
| | |
| That's about it. Which means the video didn't have any huge flaws.
| |
| | |
| == Workflow ==
| |
| By the end of production my workflow looked like this:
| |
| | |
| # Insert clips in to rough order and length
| |
| # Record voice-over in Audacity
| |
| # Match the audio up with the clips
| |
| # Tighten the timings a bit until things feel more natural
| |
| Most of the time and hesitancy of editing goes in to me not wanting to do the voice-over.
| |
| | |
| In the end I had to repeat this since the audio recording I did wasn't clean enough.
| |
| | |
| I really didn't enjoy constantly re-doing audio and re-writing subtitles and the script. It would have been better to do this as I edited to some extent, especially since I rarely went back and changed major things. | |
| | |
| == Tools ==
| |
| I used the following tools to make this video:
| |
| | |
| * Pentax K-5 camera
| |
| * Scarlett Solo with a VXLR adapter
| |
| * Rode Lavalier GO microphone
| |
| *[[Gophert NPS-1601]] power supply
| |
| * [[protech QM1571]] multimeter
| |
| * Siglent SDS1102CML+ oscilloscope
| |
| * Pinecil soldering iron
| |
| * Logitech C270 camera as a microscope
| |
| * Kdenlive 19.12 (newer versions can't export WebM VP8)
| |
| * Audacity for recording and cleaning audio
| |
| * Aegisub for subtitles
| |
| * Inkscape for title cards and other text overlay
