Schtuff and Nonsense

Well, still level 10, still not an editor. :roll: Made a new banner; yes that's me - dead and BJ-style. ;) See, I *am* female!! Female, I say!!! I spent all weekend transferring the six BJ tapes I bought off of eBay to my computer in preperation for making the season one discs. Volume 5 turned out to be messed up and I wasn't able to save the first half of Prince of the Neitherworld, so I had to get that off of my homemade copy of Nickelodeon recordings. Plus I discovered that a handful of other eps were not included on the six volumes and I had to get those off of my own tapes. The weird thing is while I was doing the recording, the picture on my monitor of the videos looked great; but on playback the bottom of the picture suffers from "old-tape syndrome" (a thick black bar, due to picture shrinkage). Why it looked fine while recording but like that in playback is a mystery. I think I'll try re-recording an ep with my new software and see if that makes any difference - though I have to say, if I watch Critter Sitters even one more time I may have to throw myself out of a window. :| Anyways if I don't have to rerecord than I can actually start doing more contributions. I do realise that I could forego doing detailed overviews of each episode in order like I have been and go straight to submitting CGI info and writers for each episode; that would easily make me editor, considering there are over 90 episodes and I'd get a point for each of those two types of contributions. But eh. I'm a slave to conformity sometimes. ;) In the meantime I'm practising making dvds using my Foster's eps as guinea pigs. The new software is kinda...wonky. So I may just use the old, boring one. At least I know how to use it. In totally other news, the Oblongs dvd set is awesome. :D There were 2 eps I hadn't seen before and they were great, especially Father of the Bribe, which starred Biff and Chip, who I love. Um...I think I should end this blog post now before it eats TV.com. ;)
