Extra evaluation

As an extra for the evaluation I submitted earlier today, I wanted to express how reliant we have been on the software working around us, when in fact it seem to be the opposite. For example, today I needed to use Final Cut Pro to finalise the storyboard movie that I was creating. To my horror, the software did not actually work on several of the groups user accounts, which would have caused me to spend extra time, reworking what I had nearly completed. Luckily for me, it was working for Craig. I felt that I needed to point this out, because we need to try and break away from relying on the software being there all the time. I know that it should, but it never seems to play out like that. To that end, I plan to ensure that in future, I leave a bigger gap for myself to have more time to play around and fine tune my project work. I most certainly will take this on board for the FMP!

Also I noticed another issue with DVD pro, whilst burning my final DVD. It appeared to be very picky with the video tracks that I used, when it come to burning it to DVD. It was constantly coming back with different error messages telling me that Video X wasn't compatible, when it clearly was. After attempting to re-export the videos into different file formats countless times, I over come the problem by switching computers. I think its not really the software itself which is to blame, but the more likely culprit is surely the network.

Hope you all enjoy the read, and agree with what I have said.


EDIT:

Just after posting this I find out that the Bubble.us website is down, quite ironic.
