Yet Another Update About the Next Video

Alright, I'll keep this as brief as possible, but I wanted to get this down in writing somewhere, so here goes: I'm probably not going to work on editing the new episode of CineMatt Reviews for the next 10 days or so for a few reasons.

1. I only have on-camera bits right now, and I have no idea if they came out well enough to work. I'm going to briefly look them over this week and see if they need re-filming (long story short, outside noise may be a crippling factor in the quality of these clips). If so, then I'll have to delay that until midway through the month. If not, well, I still have to do voiceover, which should probably start around that same time unless I have the time to do it beforehand.

2. As you could guess from the above segment, I'm incredibly strapped for time these next 10 days. There's simply more important stuff at stake and I'm not going to put that aside just to get a video out a week or two sooner.

3. I bought Adobe Premiere Elements on Black Friday, but it's currently sitting in a box two states away. Yet again, I'll be able to tool around with it in 10 days, so I don't want to start editing this episode in iMovie when I could start swinging over to better software.

I know I'm woefully inaccurate every time I make estimations for uploads, but I want to get this episode done by the end of the month... which is easier said than done. Let me put it this way: I'm going to be on the other side of the country for a week this month and will only have a few more days left before 2014 when I get back. If I power-edit the week before I leave for that trip, I may be able to get most of it done effectively. Plus, I want to be able to put out the year-end retrospective videos I've been kicking around in January while they'll be relevant. (The film countdown should be extraordinarily easy to write and edit, while the songs one will probably have more effort thrown into it. If I decide to do a miscellaneous retrospective after that [and I really want to] it will most likely be vlog-style.)

So, temporary game plan:
Episode 3 of CineMatt Reviews: Sometime in December (early January at the worst)
Retrospectives: January
Better time management: God knows when
