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!
