  • Premiere Pro Challenges

    Lesson learned – when adapting to a new audio system and settings, make sure that your video file settings are consistent with the audio. For the last several days, I have been attempting to edit the latest gaming session – something that up until recently was not really that bad. However, this time after the…

  • Age of Ashes, Episode 5

    Publishing the 5th episode of Chapter 1 of our Age of Ashes campaign. This one is a bit short this week, thanks to an untimely work related call that disrupted the game mid stream. The group returns to Citadel Altaerein, and begins the exploration of the lower vaults, to attempt the removal of the Cinderclaw…

  • Audio testing

    Continuing my video evolution, working on some new audio options for this coming Sunday’s regular game. Should be much improved audio, though I expect there will be some additional tweaking necessary to fine tune things. However, given my current travel plans, I am hoping to do some informal testing this week in preparation. At the…

  • Finished editing

  • Age of Ashes, episode 3

    Just released, episode 3 of our Age of Ashes campaign. The group retreats after their first attempt to explore Citadel Altarein, regroups, and tries again. This time they are met with some unexpected resistance, rapidly escalating into a large running fight. https://youtu.be/QKADoN4arns The youtube format continues to evolve a bit, as I adjust from past…

  • White balance

    Going to do a bit of experimentation tonight, and record the room where we normally game with the camera. Thus far, I have been leaving the camera on automatic mode, with regards to pretty much everything. This is mainly due to me simply not understanding a lot of the settings, and also the cameras being…
