This Week TCS

1) 1.Meeting with Wendy to approve/choose packaging comp

a. Come up with a few choices for dates / times

2) 2.Videos: Need original tapes from vixia for Russell Kille. The .mp4 standard definition (720x480) files are incompatible low-resolution. We need the original Vixia tapes (or files) before compression or we can’t use any of it. There is a lot of good footage, but needs to be HDV 1440x1080 format (high definition) and that original codec (not compressed). This is urgent because if we can’t get this, we will need to reshoot a lot of files, and probably won’t be done by the end of the semester. Options:

a. If mini-DV tape, can borrow tapes (easiest)

b. If still on disc-based vixia, then can borrow camera with files

c. Can come into lab and look at original source files on computer. We will then bring our harddrive and figure out the best way to export them and copy them to our own harddrive.

3) 3.Need music – original audio file without voiceover (music only) or we will need to find/create something new.
