Mr Question & Answer - 5-min Morning Journal #220323

I am thankful it's still a Wednesday so that I have still have time to complete my work. I am also thankful for Pomofocus.io. The Pomodoro Timer gets me to complete tasks fast without procrastination. 

"Mr Question and Answer, and Mr Main Topic floating around" made with Starryai

That's exactly the colors I dreamt. Starryai got it right without me telling it the colors... and the paper... it got it right too! Too surreal.

What did you dream of last night? Does it solve a problem? 

Dream number 1...

There is not enough resource to fill Q&A, so I am stuck with just the main topic to present. Complete but cannot answer any questions beyond that. Q&A is a person in red. Main Topic is another person in green. They are floating around in the open and sometimes stuck to a page. 

Dream number 2...

I was in an office with many workers. I needed to grab a file from a desk to learn about a topic. Before I could reach for it. The workers gathered around the table to listen to someone teaching the topic. I sat myself a few tables away to listen. 

========

The feeling is need to fill a lack of knowledge.

In real life, it's about preparing my upcoming Capcut/Tiktok lessons


What am I thankful for right now?

See above.


What happened yesterday?

  • What happened?
    • Tested secret YM product. 
    • Completed script for Lensgo 384C review.
    • Postponed online Capcut class
  • What worked? Why?

    • Pomofocus 5m/1m setting. The 5-minute rule works. It breaks procrastination and gives me a sense of how long I am taking to do a task. 
  • What did not work? Why? 
    • I can only do 2 main tasks a day. Coz they needed to be done. 
    • I missed the reflection and reel 3 times a day. Coz I thought there was nothing to reel about. 
  • What did you learn?
    • The iphone is a great camera. That's what the market is convinced to think. I can't beat them, so I am joining them. 
  • 🌞What can be done better today?

    • 🤔Modify BVC for more special effects video editing. Imitate my smartphone course. That's what people want. 
    • Remember to Reflect on reels 3 times a day.  
    • 🤔Prep upcoming Capcut and Tiktok talks and lessons. Modify online capcut class.
    • 🤔Upgrade gear and be ready to shoot anytime.
  • What will stop me? How to overcome? 
    • What's stopping me from recording the video? The background. The professionalism. The face. The voice. The humor. The style. The need to create Shorts. The camera. The software.
    • Ok this is a multi gear review.
    • Let's use iPhone 12 pro max as the main camera with DJI OM5.
    • Use FCPX as the video editor to tie everything up. 
    • No outdoors today. It will be tomorrow.
    • Complete by today.

Ps:

🐞 Is today a WEEKEND (Fri, Sat, Sun)? Don't start anything; clean up what I started. Successful people spend family time, Me-time, clear clutter, and strategize the week.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
