Moving desk

Published Wednesday, May 21, 2008 9:47 PM by Sam

As of today I started moving desks; the testing guys Nathan, Kiernan and Rob with a big group of new starting testers have moved out of their office for a couple of months and so I've moved in there. This will allow us (more about that later) to edit video with the sound on our speakers and not our headphones.

So how come I'm speaking in plural regarding editing and video? Well, Woody is of course still doing a brilliant job at looking after the community site and he's also in the middle of another big task regarding the website. From next week Andy should be starting, he comes from an entire different background in television, I consider him to be one of the top editors in the entire country! He'll be coming in a couple of days for the coming weeks and months. We've worked together in the past and he's been like a tutor to me, he's a very talented and skilled editor.

Dan and Tom from IT have been very helpful with building the PCs for the technical workflow and the network requirements for all the video editing. Because of this we can now capture game footage in High Definition as well and all at an incredible low price compared with the real professionals. It should do the trick! Or we'll find out in the coming weeks...

Every day for the next ten days will be spent with video now. And we can have the volume blazing on our speakers!

Finally since there are quite a few friends of mine currently travelling or visiting their family in South Africa and with the recent riots this song is quite relevant. We don't need no more trouble!

Hope the testers remove most things.

I have only made basic programs in college and that required quite a bit of testing so I understand how difficult their job will be. G o o d [Good] luck to them.

Also. Nice to hear about VD6 having plenty of work being done.

Hey Sam,

 (finally got my login sorted)

 Great to hear that the headphones have been placed to one side for now - crank up the volume and relax in audio bliss.

 P.S.  Was it just me, or was there a crackling noise going thru the last video diary?

Make no mistake, what is happening in South Africa is no different to the media lead racism growing in the UK against "immigrants", now there is a British National Party member on the Greater London Assembly and they have a worrying amount of councilors.

While people get frustrated with lower wages and higher rate of living costs, instead of taking out their rage on their rules, i.e. the wealthy and the government, people are seeking blame from the poor and foreign communities. What's happening in South Africa is only up a few gears from what's happening in Britain, and what happened in Nazi Germany is up some more gears. But it's the same process and it needs to be stopped with a total U-turn.

ok?? what the heck does that have to do with anything we have been talking about... take ur politics to someone who cares...

HobbeSlayer said:

now how on earth did we move from testing a video game but live in a different country to some random politics topic? wrong site buddy. (i think its an AI account someone ban it)

Razerblade99 said:

lol it probably is a AI. Stick out tongue [:P]

You guys are dumb. The comment Dark_Futurecaster made was in reference to Sam mentioning South Africa. Some things in life are vastly more important than your silly game, children. Grow up and pay attention to the world around you. G o o d [Good] God...

Dark_Futurecaster said:

Thank you will1066. They probably just weren't thinking and didn't realize that it was relevant to the conversation.

But going back to fable2: Looking forward very much to the next community video, I imagine this will be the final one ?
